How to Make It
Step 1
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside. Preheat an oven to 350 F. Whisk together almond flour, powdered sweetener and a pinch of salt in a large mixing bowl.
Step 2
In a separate bowl, beat egg whites with an electric mixer until soft peaks form.
Step 3
Gently fold in half of the egg whites into the almond mixture. You may not need all of the egg whites. I used about ¾ of the egg whites. Gently fold the egg whites in as to not disturb the bubbles. The dough should form a thick paste. Fold in the almond extract until just combined.
Step 4
Use your hands to form 1 inch balls and place them on the baking sheet. Leave them uncovered for 2 hours. This helps to dry the outside of the cookie before baking for the appropriate texture.
Step 5
Place them in the oven and bake for 10-12 minutes or until the tops are a golden brown.
Step 6
Dust cookies with more powdered erythritol and enjoy!
