Yield: 12 cookies
Ingredients
- 1 large egg (55g without shell)
- 40ml freshly brewed strong espresso coffee
- 3g (1 heaped tsp) soluble coffee granules
- 50g erythritol (U.S. option HERE)
- ¼ tsp pure stevia powder (U.S. option HERE)
- 50g MCT oil (U.S. option HERE)
- 40g fine coconut flour (U.S. option HERE)
- 1 tsp unsweetened dark cocoa (U.S. option HERE)
Instructions
- stir instant coffee into the freshly brewed coffee until fully dissolved and leave to cool.
- crack the whole egg into a medium mixing bowl, add MCT oil and coffee; combine with a manual whisk, then incorporate sweeteners, coconut flour and cocoa using a fork.
- leave to rest for a few minutes - enough time to clear up the mess you made :D , pre-heat the oven to 180°C static, and lay a sheet of non-stick parchment paper over an oven rack.
- using food-grade disposable gloves (U.S. option HERE), scoop a heaped TBSP of cookie dough and roll it between your palms to form an oblong, place it on the parchment paper and flatten it delicately to about 5mm while shaping it to a coffee-bean shape; repeat until you’ve used all the dough - you should obtain 12 cookies.
- after you've formed all the cookies, make an indent in each using a skewer or cocktail stick.
- bake for 20 mins, then turn oven off, open the door and leave in situ until completely cooled.
Notes
These are soft cookies. If you want them to be more like European biscuits, bake them, let them cool completely, move them to an un-lined oven rack and bake them again at 100°C fan for another 10-15 minutes (careful not to burn them), leaving them in situ do dry further with the oven turned off and the door open.
You can replace the MCT oil for high-oleic cold-pressed sunflower oil (U.S. option HERE).
The only way to ensure accurate measurement of ingredients is with Metric Kitchen Scales (U.S. option HERE).
