Equipment

Ingredients

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). 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.
    1 cup almond flour, 1/4 cup Swerve, 1 large egg, 1 tablespoon lemon juice, 1 teaspoon lemon zest
  • Scoop into 8 cookie dough balls. Using a cookie scoop can help. Roll each one in extra sweetener.
    1/4 cup Swerve
  • 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 8–10 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.
