Cook time: 15 minutes
Ingredients
1 cup blanched almond meal
2 tbsp coconut flour
3 tbsp powdered erythritol or honey
1 tsp cardamom
½ tsp baking soda
⅛ tsp salt
3 tbsp Sol Ghee, melted
½ orange, zested and juiced
Method
Preheat the oven to 180℃ and line a baking tray with baking paper.
In a large bowl, whisk the almond meal, coconut flour, erythritol, cardamon, baking soda and salt, ensuring there are no clumps or lumps.
Pour in the melted ghee, and add in orange zest followed by the juice. Combine with your hands to form a dough. Shape into approximately 8 cookies and place on the baking tray.
Bake for 13-14 minutes. Leave to cool completely before removing from the tray (they will be soft straight out of the oven and harden upon cooling).
