Preheat the oven to 180°C (356°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, erythritol, baking powder, and salt. Mix well.
Add the melted unsalted butter, vanilla extract, and one large egg to the dry ingredients. Stir until a dough forms.
Divide the dough into 16 equal portions. Take one portion and flatten it into a disc about 5 cm in diameter to form the bottom layer.
In a separate bowl, mix the almond paste with the almond extract until smooth.
Place a spoonful of the almond paste mixture in the center of the flattened dough disc.
Take another portion of the dough, flatten it, and place it over the almond paste, pinching the edges to seal the cookie.
Gently press a few sliced almonds onto the top of each cookie for decorative purposes.
Repeat the process until all the dough and almond paste are used up.
Place the cookies on the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between each cookie.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 12 to 15 minutes, or until the cookies are golden brown.
Remove from the oven and let cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Enjoy your low-carb gevulde koek with a hot cup of coffee or tea!
