Directions
Low Carb Almond Cookies,During the holidays my family has a longstanding tradition of baking cookie trays for family and friends. This year, my circle includes a friend who has been advised by her doctor to dramatically reduce her carbohydrate intake. Not wanting to leave her out of the cookie circle, I tracked this recipe down on the web and have posted it here for others interested in low-carb baking. The resulting cookie is a little crumbly like a shortbread with a soft nutty flavor. I like the variation, my own, of adding the egg as the cookie holds together more and has a thin marzipan like center. A bit too rich for my low-fat taste buds but a certain hit for a low-carb diet. According to the recipe these have about 2.7g carbs per cookie.,These are very good BUT this recipe is NOT LOW CARB KETO FRIENDLY . Maybe LESSER CARB WOULD be a better way to put this … I am so mad they are so good Ive been on induction for a month and these knocked me right out of keotosis , Splenda brown sugar has wayyy too much sugar in it , I should of done my hornwork but now Im paying for it … maybe try the recipe with regular Splenda or some other substitute , again these are very very good BUT not good for a low carb diet !
