Sugar-Free Pecan Sandies Recipe
Much like the classic recipe, these Sugar Free Pecan Sandies have all the same nutty flavor without the added sugar. Just a small ingredient list that delivers on big flavor!
Servings: 18 cookies
Ingredients
- ½ cup unsalted butter, softened to room temperature
- ½ cup powdered monk fruit sweetener
- 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
- 2 cups almond flour
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt
- ½ cup pecans, chopped
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set it aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, beat butter with powdered monk fruit sweetener for 3-4 minutes. Beat in vanilla extract.
- Add almond flour and salt. Beat it in until dough becomes crumbly. Add in pecans and mix on low until dough comes together into a ball.
- Using a 2 Tablespoon cookie scoop, drop dough on cookie sheet, about 2-inches apart. Flatten the tops slightly with palm of your hand (or bottom of a cup).
- Bake in preheated oven for 11-13 minutes, just until the edges begin to brown lightly. Remove from oven (flatten slightly if needed) and cool completely on pan.
Notes
- This cookie dough is crumbly. If it doesn't come together, use your warm hands to shape dough into cookie dough balls.
- Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one week.
- Freeze cookies for up to 3 months. Thaw on counter in airtight container.
- These cookies are naturally gluten free.
- Sprinkle extra powdered monk fruit on the cooled cookies before serving, if desired.
