INGREDIENTS

• 2 cups finely ground almond powder (Grind almonds in food processor until they look like flour.)

• 1/4 cup erythritol

• 1 tbsp almond extract

• 1 tsp vanilla extract

• 2 eggs

• 1 pinch salt

• 1 tbsp coconut oil

• 1/2 cup pine nuts for garnish

INSTRUCTIONS

• Preheat oven to 350.

• In a large bowl, mix well all ingredients except the pine nuts.

• Using a tablespoon or teaspoon (depending on what size cookie you want) scoop out a portion of the cookie batter, shape it into a ball, and dip it in the pine nuts.

• Place on a cookie sheet that has been lined with waxed paper and rubbed with coconut or grapeseed oil.

• Bake for 12-20 minutes, depending on the size of the cookies, until the pine nuts start to brown.

• Allow to cool completely before removing from the pan, otherwise they will crumble apart.
