Cook Mode

Note, these instructions are written assuming the standard serving size, since you have modified the number of servings, these steps may need to be modified for best results

Preheat your oven to 350u00b0F (175u00b0C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, mix almond flour, sweetener, egg, lemon juice, and lemon zest. You can use an electric mixer, but I find it quicker to mix the dough by hand.
Scoop into 8 cookie dough balls. Using a cookie scoop can help. Roll each one in extra sweetener.
Place on the baking sheet. Use your palm or a glass to gently flatten.
Optional: press a thumbprint into the center of each before baking.
Bake for 8u201310 minutes until the edges are golden.
Let cool fully on the tray before moving. They firm up as they cool.
Optional: once cool, fill thumbprints with this Keto Lemon Curd for an extra creamy hit.

Notes

You can bake them as flat sugar cookies or shape them into thumbprints before baking. Fill thumbprints with lemon curd after cooling for a creamy citrus center. For a fun twist, sandwich two cookies together with lemon filling. Cookies firm up as they cool. Don’t move them too soon. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days, or freeze in a single layer for up to 2 months.
