Lemon Almond Shortbread Cookies

  • Recipe Submitted by on

 Ingredients List

  • 6 Tbsp butter
  • 2 cups almond flour
  • 1/3 cup granulated sweetener (Splenda, Ideal, Swerve, etc.)
  • 1 tsp freshly grated lemon zest

 Directions

Melt the butter in the microwave or a small saucepan.
Add the almond flour, sweetener, and lemon zest, stirring until fully combined.

Form dough (it will be crumbly, this is normal) into a cylinder and wrap tightly with plastic wrap to compress.
Chill in freezer for 30 minutes or until firm, or in the refrigerator for 2 hours.
With a sharp knife, slice into 1/2 inch thick cookies (if they crumble apart your dough isn’t cold enough).
Bake in a preheated oven @ 350 degrees (F) on a greased or parchment lined cookie sheet for 15 minutes, or until firm and golden brown.
Allow to cool before removing.
