Ingredients
  

  • 2 cup almond flour
  • ½ teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • cup stevia/erythritol blend such as Swerve
  • 6 tablespoon butter
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 tablespoon lemon zest
  • 4 teaspoon lemon juice
  • 2 teaspoon dried rosemary or fresh

Instructions
 

  • In a large mixing bowl, measure out the almond flour, baking powder, and baking soda. Mix together well.
  • Add in the granulated sweetener.
  • Melt the butter in the microwave (about 20 seconds). Add in the vanilla extract and mix together.
  • Transfer the almond flour mixture to a small mixing bowl. Add the butter, lemon zest, lemon juice, and chopped rosemary to the emptied large mixing bowl. Slowly add the almond flour mixture back in, stirring constantly.
  • Keep mixing the dough together until all of the almond flour has been added.
  • Shape the dough into a log, then wrap the dough tightly in plastic wrap. Place the wrapped dough in the freezer for 30 minutes, or until hard.
  • Preheat oven to 350F. Unwrap the dough. Cut the dough into slices using a sharp knife (a dull knife will cause the dough to crumble). If the dough is still crumbling, it may need to sit in the freezer for a little while longer.
  • Grease a cookie sheet with salted butter (this adds a great hint of flavor to the bottom of the cookies). Alternatively, use a Silpat liner. Place the cut cookies onto the baking sheet. Bake for 15 minutes or until golden brown.
  • Allow the cookies to cool for about 10 minutes. Remove from the cookie sheet and enjoy!
