Description
Delicious and festive Holiday Pistachio Butter Cookie Bites that are keto-friendly.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup almond flour
- 1/2 cup unsweetened pistachio butter
- 1/4 cup erythritol or your preferred keto sweetener
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 teaspoon almond extract
- 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 large egg
- 1/4 cup chopped pistachios (for topping)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a mixing bowl, combine almond flour, erythritol, salt, and baking powder. Stir until well mixed.
- In another bowl, whisk together the pistachio butter, egg, vanilla extract, and almond extract until smooth.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until a dough forms.
- Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough and roll them into balls. Place them on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
- Flatten each ball slightly with your fingers and press a few chopped pistachios on top of each cookie.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.
- Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
- For a festive touch, add a pinch of ground cinnamon or nutmeg to the dough.
- You can substitute the pistachio butter with almond butter or sunflower seed butter for different flavors.
- For a chocolate twist, drizzle melted dark chocolate over the cooled cookie bites.
