Ingredients

  • 1 cup ground golden flaxseed meal
  • ½ cup brown monk fruit sweetener or other low carb sweetener
  • 1 medium egg
  • ½ cup butter, softened
  • ½ cup peanut butter
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon salt

Instructions

  •  Preheat the oven to 180C/350F degrees and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • Place the butter and low carb sweeter in a bowl and beat until you have a smooth mixture.
  • Add the egg, vanilla essence and peanut butter and mix until well combined and smooth.
  • Add the remaining ingredients and blend until combined.
  • Chill the cookie mixture in the fridge for at least 30 minutes.
  • Use a cookie scoop to form small balls of about a large walnut shape, and place them on the prepared baking sheets, keeping them about 2 to 3 inches apart. These cookies will spread so you need a good space between them.
  • Slightly flatten the cookie balls and bake the cookies for 15-18 minutes until the cookies are golden.
  • Remove the cookies from the oven and allow to cool before handling.
