Ingredients
- 1 cup almond flour
- 0.5 cup granulated erythritol
- 4 large egg whites
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup almonds
- 1 cup hazelnuts
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2
In a large bowl, whisk together the almond flour, erythritol, baking powder, and salt.
Step 3
Chop the almonds and hazelnuts coarsely, then fold them into the dry mixture.
Step 4
In a separate bowl, beat the egg whites with an electric mixer on medium speed until soft peaks form.
Step 5
Gently fold the egg whites and vanilla extract into the nut and flour mixture just until combined.
Step 6
Using a teaspoon, drop dollops of the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 2 inches between each mound.
Step 7
Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until they are golden brown and firm to the touch.
Step 8
Remove from the oven and allow to cool completely on the baking sheet. They will harden more as they cool.
Step 9
Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one week.
