Ingredients

1 cup almond butter runny and smooth, 250g
1 egg large
½ cup granulated sweetener 100g, use ⅔ cup for a sweeter cookie

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 180C / 350F (conventional) or 160C / 320F (fan assisted).
Put all ingredients in a bowl. Blend using an electric blender or simply stir together with a fork.
Scoop out dough portions with a spoon or cookie scoop. Roll into a ball and place on a parchment lined cookie sheet or a silpat. Each of my balls weighed 30 grams.
Press into a fat disc shape using a fork, making a crisscross pattern on each cookie top. Option to sprinkle with sea salt.
Bake for 10-12 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool fully before touching.

Notes

1.6g net carbs per cookie. Makes 12 cookies at 30 grams each.

For smaller cookies, reduce the oven time to 8 minutes.

Optional add-ons to this recipe:

Sea salt - Sprinkled on top of the cookies before baking or a pinch mixed into the batter.

Sugar Free Chocolate Chips - Use either homemade sugar free chocolate chips, a brand like Lily's or simply chop 90% dark chocolate into chunks.

Cinnamon or vanilla extract - ½ teaspoon of one and/or the other.

Baking powder - 1 tsp for extra fluffy cookies.
