Low Carb Keto Sugar Cookies Food

LOW CARB KETO SUGAR COOKIES

Steps:

• Beat all ingredients together or pulse together in a food processor until dough forms. If dough is a little sticky, it's best to sprinkle in some coconut flour on the outer surfaces when rolling.
• Roll dough out between two pieces of parchment paper to desired thickness (between 1/8 and 1/4 inch). Thinner cookies bake quicker and tend to be more crisp. Sprinkle a little extra coconut flour (or almond flour/sunflower seed flour) on to dough as needed. Dough can also be rolled into a log and frozen for 20-30 minutes and then sliced into circles for easy "slice and bake" cookies.
• Cut into shapes and place on parchment lined baking pan.
• Bake in oven at 350°F for 8-10 minutes or until edges are lightly browned.
• Remove from oven, let cool on rack for about 5-10 minutes then transfer cookies to a cooling rack until completely cooled.

LOW CARB SUGAR COOKIES

Steps:

• In a mixer with paddle attachment, cream together the first three ingredients until creamy and fluffy.
• In a small bowl, mix together the flour, wheat gluten and baking powder. Add a pinch of salt if you like.
• Once the mixture is creamed, add vanilla and mix well.
• Now add Splenda and mix well.
• Stir in the flour mixture by hand.
• Finally stir in the almond flour.
• Refrigerate the dough for about 30 min to make it easier to work with.
• Preheat oven to 325°F Line baking sheet with parchment.
• Form small marble size balls of the dough.
• Put a ball of dough on the parchment and using the flat bottom of a glass press to flatten. Using a piece of parchment between the glass and dough will prevent it from sticking.
• Bake in the oven for 8-10 min until the edges for golden.
• Cool on a rack, and store in an airtight box.
• Optional - coconut, coconut extract, almond extract, lemon extract, cinnamon etc.
• I like to drizzle sugar free caramel or maple syrup over the cookies for a sweet delectable treat. Frosting for the lazy!
• Note - 1 packet Splenda = sweetness of 2tsp sugar = 1 carb or less.
