Ingredients

1 cup / 100g almond flour or ground almonds
½ cup / 130g peanut butter smooth, soft
1 egg
¼ cup / 50g granulated sweetener
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp vanilla extract
sea salt, for sprinkling on top

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 180 Celsius / 350 Fahrenheit.
Put all ingredients in a bowl and stir together with a fork until a dough forms.
Form a large ball and cut into 8 slices.
Make 2 dough balls from each slice (20 grams each) and put on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Flatten each cookie dough ball into 1 cm thick / 5 cm diameter disks using a fork, making a criss cross pattern. Sprinkle with sea salt.
Bake for 8-10 minutes (I baked for 9). Remove from the oven and let cool completely before touching.

Notes

Net carbs: 1.4g per cookie. Makes 16 cookies.

Cookie weight: 20 grams, diameter: 5 cm.

For cookies with a soft centre, bake 8-10 minutes. For crunchy cookies, bake up to 12 minutes.

Make sure the peanut butter is soft and runny and contains plenty of oils. Old, hard peanut butter is not suitable for this recipe.
