Ingredients
Instructions
-
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
-
In a large bowl, combine the ground flaxseed, almond flour, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon. Mix well to ensure all dry ingredients are evenly distributed.
-
In a separate bowl, whisk together the applesauce, sweetener, egg, and vanilla extract until smooth and well combined.
-
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring until a dough forms. If the dough seems too dry, you can add a little more applesauce or a splash of almond milk to moisten it.
-
Using a cookie scoop or a spoon, portion out the dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing the cookies about 1 inch apart.
-
Flatten each cookie slightly with your palm and, if desired, press a few sugar-free chocolate chips or chopped nuts on top of each cookie.
-
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown.
-
Remove from the oven and allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
