Almond flour is gluten-free and adds flavor.

In a small bowl, add 1 whole egg, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and 1/2 teaspoon butter extract.

Mix the wet ingredients together until well combined and set aside.

In a separate bowl, combine 1 and 1/3 cups white whole wheat flour (160g), 1/3 cup sugar substitute (30g), 3/4 teaspoon corn starch, 1/4 teaspoon baking powder, and 1/4 teaspoon salt.

Add 2 tablespoons solid coconut oil (28g) to the dry ingredients and mix until well incorporated.

Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix with a spatula until crumbly.

If the dough is too dry, add almond milk a tablespoon at a time until it takes shape.

Layer the countertop with plastic wrap, add the dough, and cover with another piece of plastic wrap.

Roll out the dough to about 1/4 inch thick using a rolling pin.

Use a cookie cutter to cut out cookies from the rolled dough and re-roll any leftover dough to make more cookies.

Cover a baking sheet with parchment paper and add the cookies to the sheet.

Bake at 350°F (177°C) for about 10 minutes.
