Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 1 cup almond flour (or ground almonds)
  • ½ cup smooth peanut butter (soft, keto-friendly preferred)
  • 1 piece egg
  • ¼ cup granulated sweetener (erythritol works great)
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • Himalayan salt (for sprinkling)

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
  2. In a medium-sized bowl, combine the almond flour, peanut butter, egg, granulated sweetener, baking powder, and vanilla extract. Stir until a smooth dough forms. The dough should be thick and slightly sticky.
  3. Using a spoon or cookie scoop, form small dough balls and place them evenly spaced on the prepared baking sheet. Press each ball lightly with your fingers or a fork to flatten slightly. Sprinkle a tiny pinch of Himalayan salt over each cookie.
  4. Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 8–10 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown. Remove from the oven and allow to cool on the tray for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

For variations, you can use crunchy peanut butter, mix in sugar-free chocolate chips, or use sunflower seed flour for a nut-free option. Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days or refrigerate for longer shelf life.
