Pro-Tip

For the flakiest texture, ensure your butter is ice-cold. Use a pastry cutter or two forks to work it into the flour until it resembles coarse crumbs. Avoid over-handling the dough with warm hands.

Instructions

01

Preheat & Prep

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a heavy-duty baking sheet with unbleached parchment paper to ensure even browning and easy release.

02

Whisk Dry Ingredients

In a large stoneware bowl, whisk together the Superfine Almond Flour, sweetener, baking powder, and sea salt. Ensure there are no large clumps for a consistent crumb.

03

Cut in Butter

Add the cold cubed butter. Using a pastry blender, work the butter into the flour mixture until it looks like small peas or coarse sand.

04

Combine Wet Ingredients

In a separate small bowl, whisk the egg and cream together. Pour into the dry ingredients and stir with a wooden spoon until a shaggy dough forms.

05

Shape & Bake

Turn dough onto parchment. Shape into a 6-inch disc about 1-inch thick. Cut into 8 wedges. Space them 2 inches apart on the sheet. Bake for 18-22 minutes until edges are golden brown.
