Ingredients
- 113 grams Unsalted butter
- 50 grams Powdered erythritol (or other low-carb sweetener)
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 150 grams Almond flour
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2
In a medium bowl, cream the unsalted butter and powdered erythritol together until the mixture is light and fluffy.
Step 3
Add the vanilla extract and mix until fully combined.
Step 4
In another bowl, whisk together the almond flour and salt.
Step 5
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, stirring until a soft dough forms.
Step 6
Gather the dough into a ball and place it on a piece of parchment paper.
Step 7
Roll the dough out to about 1/2-inch thickness. Use a round cookie cutter to cut out biscuit shapes, or shape into a rectangle and slice into fingers for traditional shortbread shapes.
Step 8
Place the cut dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing slightly apart.
Step 9
Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until the biscuits are just beginning to turn golden brown.
Step 10
Remove from oven and allow to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 11
Store in an airtight container for up to a week.
