03 - ½ cup powdered erythritol or monk fruit sweetener
04 - 1 teaspoon baking powder
05 - ¼ teaspoon fine sea salt

# Step-by-step Instructions:

01 - Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
02 - In a medium bowl, whisk almond flour, coconut flour, sweetener, baking powder, and salt until evenly mixed.
03 - Using an electric mixer, beat softened butter until creamy. Add eggs, vanilla extract, and heavy cream, mixing until smooth and fluffy.
04 - Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until a soft dough forms.
05 - Scoop dough using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, gently roll into balls, and arrange on baking sheet spaced 2 inches apart.
06 - Lightly press each ball to flatten slightly, ensuring minimal spreading during baking.
07 - Bake for 12 to 15 minutes until edges are lightly golden and centers are set.
08 - Allow cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
09 - If desired, dust cooled cookies with additional powdered erythritol.

# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • They stay soft for days and taste like a vanilla dream without spiking your blood sugar.
  • The dough comes together in one bowl with no chilling required, so you can bake them on a whim.
  • Each cookie feels indulgent but keeps you in ketosis, which still feels like magic to me.
02 -
  • Do not substitute more coconut flour for almond flour because coconut flour absorbs liquid like a sponge and will turn these into dry pucks.
  • Let the cookies cool fully before storing them or theyll steam in the container and lose that perfect texture.
03 -
  • Weigh your almond flour if you have a scale because scooping it can pack in too much and make the cookies dense.
  • If your dough feels too sticky to roll, chill it in the fridge for ten minutes and itll firm up just enough to handle.
