Description
Who doesn't love a delicious cookie with a cup of coffee?
These almond cookies were the perfect treat this afternoon and they are only 0.3g net carbs each. Fresh out of the oven and still warm inside...they were crunchy on the outside but soft in the middle. The whole family enjoyed them!
I was super keen to get this recipe to you so I haven't tested any alternative ingredients.
If you'd like to give a nut free version a go I would suggest swapping the almond meal for golden flaxseed meal and the almond butter for a seed butter of your choice.
You could definitely use peanut butter in place of almond butter. It would be delicious!
If you are partial to chocolate, you could either add some chopped dark chocolate for choc chips or dip one side of the cookie in melted chocolate.
The mix is a little crumbly, so be careful when rolling them and gently press them with a fork when flattening them slightly.
These cookies will keep well in an airtight container in the pantry.
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 170° and line two trays with baking paper.
Conventional Method
In a saucepan over low heat, mix together the almond butter, coconut oil, sweetener and vanilla extract until the mix is smooth.
Pour the almond butter mix into a mixing bowl and add the remaining ingredients, adding the egg last. Mix well to combine.
Scoop out heaped soup spoon sized balls and roll gently in your hand to shape. Then place on the baking tray. Continue with the remaining mix and gently press down on each ball with a fork to flatten slightly.
Place the trays in the oven and cook for 12 minutes or until the outside starts to golden.
Remove from the oven and set aside for 5-10 mins to cool. The cookies will harden as they cool.
Thermomix Method
Add the almond butter, coconut oil, sweetener and vanilla extract to the Thermomix bowl and heat for 3 mins/80°/sp2.
Add the remaining ingredients to the mix, adding the egg last, and combine for 30 sec/sp4/reverse.
Scoop out heaped soup spoon sized balls and roll gently in your hand to shape. Then place on the baking tray. Continue with the remaining mix and gently press down on each ball with a fork to flatten slightly.
Place the trays in the oven and cook for 12 minutes or until the outside starts to golden.
