Ingredients
  

Cookie Base:

  • 2 cups almond flour sifted
  • ¼ cup butter
  • 1 egg large
  • ¼ cup cream cheese room temperature
  • cup allulose
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ½ teaspoon baking powder
  • ¼ teaspoon xanthan gum

Pecan Pie Filling:

  • 5 tablespoon butter
  • ½ cup allulose
  • 1 ¼ cups pecans chopped
  • cup heavy cream
  • ½ teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • salt to taste, ~1/8 teaspoon

Instructions
 

  • Gather and prep all of your ingredients.
  • Beat together the cream cheese, butter, and allulose until pale.
  • Add in the egg and vanilla, then beat again until completely incorporated.
  • Add in the almond flour, baking powder, and xanthan gum.
  • Mix together again until smooth and no lumps are present.
  • Place the dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 20-30 minutes to firm up.
  • Once ready, pre-heat your oven to 325F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and form dough into 1.5-inch balls. Place the balls down on the sheet, then press an indentation into the cookies by using your thumb or the back of a spoon. Bake the cookies for 15-18 minutes or until lightly golden.
  • While cookies are baking, add chopped pecans to a pan over medium-low and toast for 3-4 minutes until fragrant.
  • In a separate saucepan, combine the butter and allulose over medium heat until bubbling and shiny. Stir frequently to prevent burning.
  • Add the toasted pecans, heavy cream, cinnamon, vanilla, and salt to taste. Stir together until well combined.
  • Once cookie bases have cooled, generously spoon the pecan pie filling into each of the indentations.
  • Store in an air-tight container and enjoy as desired! Keep at room-temp for up to a week, or freeze for long-term storage.
