Ingredients
- ⅓ cup / 50g coconut flour
- ⅓ cup / 75g butter or coconut oil softened
- 2 eggs large
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 3 tablespoon granulated sweetener or more, to taste. I used a brown sugar substitute
Egg wash (optional)
- 1 egg
- 1 tablespoon milk of your choice or cream
Instructions
- Pre-heat the oven to 180 Celsius / 350 Fahrenheit.
- Add all ingredients to a mixing bowl. Stir together with a fork.
- Knead with your hands until you have a smooth dough. Let is rest for a few minutes to let the coconut flour expand. Then form a large ball. (If your dough is too soft for this, place the bowl in the fridge for 15-20 minutes first).
- Cut the large ball into 16 pieces and roll into little dough balls. Place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and press down with the palm of your hand into fat discs of circa 4 cm diameter (1.5 cm thick).
- optional: mix the egg and milk of your choice (I used almond milk) and brush each cookie with the egg wash.
- Bake in the oven for about 13-15 minutes or until golden.

Notes
0.4g net carbs per cookie. Makes 16 cookies (diameter 4 cm, 1.5 cm thick).
Weight: 15 grams per cookie.
I have not included the egg wash in the nutrition calculation because you won't use much of it. Save the leftovers for your next omelette :)
Let the cookies cool completely before you handle them. They are very soft and fragile when hot and firm up as they cool down.
Store in a cookie jar for up to 1 week or freeze for up to 6 months.
