Instructions

Working time approx. 10 minutes; Cooking/baking time approx. 20 minutes; Total time approx. 30 minutes

low carb, for about 14 cookies

Mix all the dry ingredients well in a large bowl. Make a small well in the center and add the egg, butter, liquid sweetener, vanilla, and yogurt. Mix lightly with a fork, breaking up and crushing the butter. Then knead the mixture into a smooth, firm dough using a mixer or a stand mixer on the slowest speed with a dough hook. However, I recommend kneading by hand. Preheat the oven to 180 degrees top/bottom heat or 160 degrees fan-assisted. Tear off small pieces of dough and roll them into balls between your hands. Flatten the balls to just under a centimeter thick and place them on a baking sheet lined with baking paper. Bake on the bottom rack at the specified temperature for 20-25 minutes. Let cool thoroughly.
