Butter Cookies Eggless (short cut version)
Here's another short cut version of Keto Butter Cookies which is super easy to make with just a few ingredients. It is egg free and you can even make it dairy free by replacing with vegan butter. This method of rolling the dough into a log, freeze, cut then bake actually makes the cookies crispy and delicious. I absolutely love it and I know you will too. Perfect with a cup of coffee!
1. For best results, weigh the ingredients with a digital scale.
2. Preheat oven to 340F or 170C
3. In a bowl, add all the dry ingredients and mix until well combined.
4. Add the wet ingredients and mix until a dough is formed. As an option, you can choose to add 1 large egg yolk. This just makes the dough a little easier to roll.
5. Shape the dough into a ball.
6. Place the dough on a parchment paper. Roll the dough into a log. Then roll over with the parchment paper. Use the core of a kitchen roll for support. Secure with a rubber band. Freeze for 1 hour to harden.
7. After 1 hour, remove the dough. Cut into desired thickness. This recipe makes about 20 cookies. Of course, you can choose to shape the dough individually but try to make them flatter for a crispier texture.
8. Place the cut dough on a baking tray lined with parchment paper. As an option, sprinkle with some granulated sweetener for an extra crunch. In the video, I used Lakanto Brown Sweetener.
9. Bake at the middle rack for 15 to 18 minutes or until golden brown. It is best to set a digital timer at certain intervals to check on the cookies to avoid burning them.
10. Cool for about 5 minutes then transfer the cookies to a wire rack to cool completely. The cookies will become firm and crispy once completely cooled. If you find the cookies are not crispy enough, just pop them back into the oven and bake a little longer.
11. Store in an airtight container. These cookies can be kept at room temperature up to a few weeks. They can be chilled and taste great out of the fridge. They can also be frozen.
12. The dough can be frozen and baked at any time.
