Tender, rich buttery cookies perfect for low-carb and keto lifestyles, with almond flour and vanilla.

# What You Need:

→ Dry Ingredients

01 - 2 cups almond flour (blanched, finely ground)
02 - 1/2 cup powdered erythritol or other keto-friendly sweetener
03 - 1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt

→ Wet Ingredients

04 - 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
05 - 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

# How to Make It:

01 - Preheat oven to 350°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
02 - In a mixing bowl, combine almond flour, powdered erythritol, and salt.
03 - Add softened butter and vanilla extract. Mix until a soft, cohesive dough forms.
04 - Scoop 1-tablespoon portions and roll into balls. Place onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing about 2 inches apart.
05 - Flatten each ball slightly with a fork, creating a crisscross pattern on top.
06 - Bake for 12–15 minutes, or until edges are lightly golden.
07 - Let cookies cool fully on the baking sheet before transferring, as they will be fragile when warm.
