minutesIngredients
- Cookies
2 c. almond flour
1 c. finely chopped pecans
2 tbsp. coconut flour
1/2 tsp. baking powder
1/4 tsp. kosher salt
1/2 c. (1 stick) butter, softened
2/3 c. Swerve brown sugar (or regular Swerve and 2 tsp. Yacon syrup)
1 large egg
1/2 tsp. pure vanilla extract
- Vanilla Glaze
2/3 c. powdered Swerve sweetener or powdered erythritol
6 to 8 tbsp. heavy cream
1/2 tsp. pure vanilla extract
Directions
- Cookies
- Preheat oven to 325° and line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper. In a medium bowl, whisk together almond flour, chopped pecans, coconut flour, baking powder, and salt.
- In a large bowl, beat butter with Swerve until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Beat in egg and vanilla extract. Beat in almond flour mixture until dough comes together.
- Form dough into 3/4″, then roll between palms and shape into crescents. Place on prepared baking sheets.
- Bake 15 to 18 minutes, or until just lightly golden brown. They will not be firm to the touch, but will firm up as they cool. Cool on the sheets.
- Glaze
- Whisk powdered Swerve with 1/4 cup cream and vanilla extract until smooth. Add 1 tablespoon more cream at a time until a thin but spreadable consistency is achieved.
- Spread on cooled cookies and decorate as desired.
- Alternatively, simply roll cookies in powdered sweetener.
