Low Carb Keto Almond Shortbread Cookies – Simply Delicious!
Ingredients
- 1 cup almond flour
- 1/4 cup coconut flour
- 1 stick (8 tablespoons) unsalted butter, at room temperature
- 1/2 cup Stevia Blend Sugar Substitute
- 2 ounces cream cheese, at room temperature
- 1/2 teaspoon almond extract
- 1 large egg
- 1/2 cup sliced almonds
Instructions
Mix together the almond and coconut flours in a small bowl.
Combine the butter and Stevia in a medium bowl and beat with an electric mixer until light and fluffy, 2 to 3 minutes.
Add the cream cheese and continue to beat until smooth, about 1 minute more.
Add the almond extract and egg and beat until combined.
Add the flour mixture and continue beating until just combined and smooth.
Gently fold in the almonds.
Place the mixture onto a piece of parchment or wax paper and, using the paper, mold the dough into a log.
Wrap the log in plastic wrap and refrigerate until firm, at least 1 hour.
Position an oven rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 350 degrees F.
Line a baking sheet with parchment.
Slice the dough into 1/2-inch-thick slices and place on the prepared baking sheet.
Bake until the edges are golden brown, 18 to 20 minutes. Let cool before serving; the cookies will firm up as they cool.
Steviva gathered nature’s best sweeteners, such as stevia, monk fruit, erythritol, coconut palm sugar, agave nectar, inulin, crystalline fructose and xylitol, and meticulously formulated delicious, pure sweeteners that taste and function just like sugar—without the calories, carbs or blood sugar spikes. It makes everything so much healthier and super delish!

Sounds fantastic! I will make them this weekend! I have everything on hand except the coconut flour. Already added to my shopping list. Tomorrow is errand day and we have a regional market called Sprouts that carries these items in bulk, so you can purchase what you need and not have to commit to a 5 or 10 pound bag of something. And they are a lot cheaper than Whole Foods. Think of an upscale Trader Joe’s with a proper deli counter and proper butcher. Long story, my ex hubby is going to his brothers for Christmas Eve in Los Osos (a 3 hour drive north), and will be returning sometime on Christmas Day afternoon. We will be having dinner together and he wants meat for dinner as his brother is doing a California version of The Feast of Seven Fishes – so he will have had enough seafood . . . I will get some New York’s or Filet Mignon and sneak in a few shrimp too if they look good and will grill up with some fresh veggies! These cookies will be the perfect end to the meal. Will report back! Happy Holidays to you and your family!
Oh wow! That dinner sounds incredible – The Feast of Seven Fishes! I never heard of that before. We do a fish thing on Christmas Eve but not that. What fun! Sprouts sounds wonderful! We have a store called Wegmans that sounds similar. Oh yes, the Almond and Coconut flour are everything in this recipe. I never thought I would be a fan but boy, was I wrong. I am shocked at how delish these cookies are and I love the fact that they are almost carb free too! I can’t wait to hear your thoughts on them. They are super easy to make too. Your holiday sounds fantastic and I can’t wait to hear all about it! Happy Holidays my dear friend! xoxoxoxox
