Ingredients
- 150 g roasted ground hazelnuts (U.S. option HERE) if out of stock (UK), Sainsbury's ground hazelnuts taste great (Italian produce)
- 70 g unsalted butter - softened
- 40 g erythritol (U.S. option HERE)
- ¼ tsp pure stevia powder (U.S. option HERE)
- 1 tsp vanilla extract (U.S. option HERE)
- 10 g oat fibre (U.S. option HERE)
- 45 g QK Nutella - recipe HERE
Instructions
- mix everything with a fork intially, then using your hand, turning and squeezing until a dough forms.
- weigh and divide by 10 so you know how much each cookie dough should weigh.
- take a chunk of dough that's equal to that 1/10th weight, roll it between your palms and place it on a chopping board lined with grease-proof paper.
- repeat until you've used all the dough; press your thumb in the centre of each one to create a depression - you can use the back of a ½ teaspoon measure if you prefer.
- refrigerate for 1 hour.
- pre- heat oven to 160°C static.
- transfer the cookies to an oven rack lined with parchment paper and bake for 20 mins , until they just begin to turn darker in places.
- remove from oven immediately, wait 5 minutes or so for the cookies to cool and firm up a little, and re-press the centre indent if it lost its definition in the oven heat.
- fill the centre with QK Nut.Ella and leave to cool completely.
Notes
As an alternative to QK Nut.Ella, you can fill the centre with melted chocolate, a gel, custard, or pretty much whatever you fancy.
You can replace roasted ground hazelnuts with any ground nuts or seeds of your choice.
They are just as good plain and simple. Macros for plain biscuits: Kcal 156; F 16g; TC 3.35 (f 2.25) NC 1.1g; P 2g. Unless otherwise indicated, use Metric Kitchen Scales to measure ingredients accurately (U.S. option HERE).
