Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the peanut butter, sweetener, and vanilla extract. Mix until smooth. Beat in the egg until fully combined.
  3. Add the almond flour, baking soda, and salt to the bowl. Stir until a cohesive dough forms.
  4. Scoop and roll the dough into 1.5-tablespoon sized balls. Place them on the prepared baking sheet, about 2 inches apart.
  5. Gently press down on each cookie with the tines of a fork to create a criss-cross pattern.
  6. Bake for 10-12 minutes, until the edges are golden brown. The centers will still appear soft.
  7. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. They will firm up as they cool.
