Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups blanched almond flour
  • ½ cup Swerve confectioners’-style sweetener or equivalent amount of liquid or powdered sweetener recipe notes
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon fine sea salt
  • 6 tablespoons ¾ stick unsalted butter, frozen
  • ¼ cup unsweetened cashew milk or heavy cream
  • 1 large egg
  • Seeds scraped from 1 vanilla bean about 8 inches long, or 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 400°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a medium-sized bowl, mix the almond flour, powdered sweetener (if using powdered), baking powder, and salt. Cut the butter into ½-inch squares, then use your fingers to work the butter into the dry ingredients. When you are done, the mixture should still have chunks of butter.
  • In a small bowl, whisk the cashew milk, egg, and liquid sweetener (if using liquid) until blended. Using a fork, stir the milk and egg mixture into the flour mixture until large clumps form. Use your hands to press the dough against the side of the bowl, forming 8 balls.
  • Place the balls of dough on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Bake until golden, 13 to 15 minutes. Let cool on the pan for at least 5 minutes. Serve warm or at room temperature.
  • Store extras in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat on a baking sheet in a preheated 350°F oven for 5 minutes or until warmed through.
