Yield 20

Number Of Ingredients 6

¾ cup almond flour
3 tablespoons granular no-calorie sucralose sweetener (such as Splenda®)
1 dash salt
2 tablespoons butter, softened
1 egg white
¼ teaspoon vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Mix almond flour, sweetener, and salt together in a small bowl with a fork. Add butter, egg white, and vanilla extract; continue mixing with a fork. Place in the freezer to help it harden for 15 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or use a silicone baking mat.
  • Remove batter from freezer. Measure out 1 teaspoon at a time; roll into balls and place on the prepared baking sheet. Place plastic wrap on the bottom of a glass and roll dough balls flat.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until light, golden brown, 15 to 20 minutes.
