Ingredients:

Serving

1 cup whole wheat pastry flour
1 cup semolina flour
2 tsp baking powder
1/8 tsp sea salt
1/4 cup avocado , olive , or flax-sunflower oil
1 cup almond meal
1/2 cup erythritol (see note, below )
2 tbsp brown rice syrup
1 tsp almond extract
1/4 cup unsweetened almond milk
1 cup pignoli ( pine nuts)

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line a baking sheet with unbleached parchment paper or a silicone baking sheet.
Whisk together flours, baking powder and salt. Combine oil, almond meal, erythritol and syrup in a small saucepan over medium heat. Cook, stirring, until well combined and smooth, about 3 minutes. Remove from heat and whisk in almond extract.
Stir almond mixture into dry ingredients and mix well. Add almond milk and mix to create a soft, sticky dough. With wet hands, form dough into 1 1/2-inch balls. Place pignoli in a shallow dish and roll each cookie around, covering with pignoli. Arrange on baking sheet, allowing space for cookies to spread slightly. Bake for 18 minutes. The cookies will still be soft when they come out of the oven. Immediately remove from baking sheet and transfer to a cooling rack.
Note: Erythritol is a natural no-calorie sweetener made from fermented sugar alcohol. Completely natural, this sweetener is about 75% as sweet as sugar but without the calories. It is available at natural food stores and online.
