Cold weather calls for cookies with a nice hot cup of tea. With that in mind, I decided to share with you this recipe for low carb Stars. I called them stars, but you can give them any shape you want or even mold the dough into a cookie shape 😉
I hope you like it <3
Ingredients
- 1 medium egg + 1 egg white
- 3 tablespoons of olive oil or coconut oil (if you use dairy products you can use butter)
- 90 gr almond flour – I used the Prozis – code MAMAPALEO gives 10% discount on everything (you can exchange it for oat flour – it is not low carb)
- 45 gr coconut flour – I used the Prozis – code MAMAPALEO gives 10% discount on everything
- 25 grams of ground flaxseed
- 1 tablespoon of xylitol – honey or coconut sugar (adjust to taste) – I used Prozis – code MAMAPALEO gives 10% discount on everything
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon (or to taste)
- zest of 1 lemon
- 1/3 vanilla bean scrapings or vanilla extract (optional)
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- pinch of salt
Preparation:
Mix all the ingredients very well until you get a malleable dough. Place it between two sheets of greaseproof paper and, using a rolling pin, roll out the dough until it is about 0,5 cm thick.
Use molds to cut out the cookies. Bake in a preheated oven at 200 degrees for about 7-10 minutes. Turn over and let brown for another 2/3 minutes.
Remove from the oven and let them cool on a rack. After cooling, they will be hard on the outside and tender on the inside.
Optional – those with a sweet tooth can also cover with 75% cocoa chocolate or higher, melted in a bain-marie.
