Delicious, with healthy fat from almonds, and only 5.5 grams net carbs per cookie. If you are avoiding wheat or counting carbs, give these a try. I created them for my husband who has to reduce his carb intake in order to control his blood sugar. Ingredients:
1 cup almond meal |
1/4 cup sugar |
1/2 teaspoon baking soda |
1 egg |
1/4 cup chocolate chips (mini chips work best) |
1 teaspoon vanilla extract |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 and grease 1 cookie sheet.
2. Stir together almond meal, sugar and baking soda in a large bowl.
3. Add beaten egg, chocolate chips and vanilla extract and mix until well combined.
4. Place dough balls one inch apart on cookie sheet . You should be able to fit all 15 on the single cookie sheet.
5. Bake until puffed and golden, about 10 minutes.
6. Cool cookies on baking sheet about 2 minutes and then transfer to paper towels or rack to cool.
7. Note: I personally avoid artificial sweeteners, so I don't know how they would taste made with splenda.
