These low carb shortbread cookies are so easy to make! Just follow these simple steps: Start by heating your oven to 300F (150C). Then, add the almond flour, vanilla extract, salt and sweetener to a mixing bowl and mix well. Add the butter and egg into the mixture, and mix until well combined.
These keto shortbread cookies are buttery and crunchy, just like the real deal but with none of the sugar and carbs. They are great on their own, with a cup of coffee, tea, hot chocolate or keto mocha. They also make the perfect base for other desserts and can be used as a cheesecake crust or cookie base in these Keto Twix Bars!
Buttery keto shortbread cookies are a perfect snack for the holiday season. Unlike sugar cookies these shortbread cookies are less sweet and a little softer with a buttery flavour. I love this time of year as I enjoy spending time in the kitchen developing new ways to make traditional recipes into low carb recipes.
Yes, almond flour is probably the most important ingredient in these shortbread cookies, without the almond flour you wouldn’t have a delicious low carb cookie. When baking low carb, you replace regular white flour with either almond or coconut flour. For this recipe, almond flour is the perfect consistency and taste.
