Ingredients

  • 1 cup almond flour
  • 1/4 cup coconut flour
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1/3 cup powdered erythritol (or any keto-friendly powdered sweetener)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Pinch of salt

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
  2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, coconut flour, powdered erythritol, and a pinch of salt. Mix well until evenly combined.
  3. Add Butter and Vanilla: Add the softened butter and vanilla extract to the bowl with the dry ingredients. Use a hand mixer or stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment to mix everything together until a smooth dough forms. The dough should be slightly sticky but hold together well.
  4. Shape the Cookies: Scoop out tablespoon-sized portions of dough and roll them into balls. Place each ball onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
  5. Flatten the Cookies: Use the back of a fork to gently flatten each cookie ball, creating a crisscross pattern on top.
  6. Bake: Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown. Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 10 minutes.
  7. Cool and Serve: Transfer the cookies to a wire rack to cool completely. They will firm up as they cool. Enjoy these keto shortbread cookies on their own or with a cup of keto-friendly tea or coffee.
