Low-Carb Almond Crescent Cookies
Ingredients:
1 cup butter (softened)
3 3/4 cups organic almond flour
1/2 cups organic coconut flour
1 1/4 cup xylitol
1 tsp vanilla
1/4 tsp salt
1 1/2 tsp organic almond extract
sliced almonds for coating (approximately 1 cup. This is a generous amount, but will ensure that you have plenty)
Low-Carb Powdered Sugar Substitute (optional for topping)
Directions:
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
Beat butter, salt, and sweetener together until well blended. Add the extracts and beat well. Add remaining ingredients and combine well.
Form into small logs, about 3 inches long. Place the sliced almonds into a bowl. Roll the logs in sliced almonds. Shape into crescents.
Sprinkle with powdered sweetener if using. Bake at 350 for 10 – 15 min or until lightly browned. Let the cookies cool completely before eating or transferring to a container for storage. At first, the cookies will seem to be too soft but will harden up when cooled to room temperature.
