Ingredients

• 2 cups almond flour
• 0.5 cup unsalted butter
• 0.5 cup granulated erythritol
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 large egg yolk
• 0.25 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 cup sugar-free jam

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a mixing bowl, combine the almond flour and salt. Mix well to evenly distribute the salt within the flour.

Step 3

In a separate bowl, cream the softened butter and granulated erythritol together until the mixture is light and fluffy.

Step 4

Add in the egg yolk and vanilla extract to the butter mixture. Beat until completely incorporated.

Step 5

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until well combined.

Step 6

Roll the dough into balls, about 1 inch in diameter, and place them on the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 2 inches of space between each cookie.

Step 7

Using your thumb or the back of a small spoon, gently press down on the center of each ball to create an indentation.

Step 8

Fill the center of each cookie with about half a teaspoon of the sugar-free jam.

Step 9

Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are a light golden brown.

Step 10

Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
