Coconut Almond Shortbread

For this recipe,  we took a low carb recipe off the internet and made it our own with almond and coconut flours.  Coconut flour is great because it is SO high in fiber!  You can top it with a jelly or apple butter if you like, or cinnamon and sugar (or the sugar substitute of your choice) if you like.

Ingredients:

2 sticks (1/2 lb) butter or margarine, softened
1/4 cup coconut palm sugar
1/4 cup trevia/Stevia sweetener
1 cup almond flour
3/4 cup coconut flour
1/8 cup whole wheat flour
1/8 cup all purpose flour

Blend butter until soft, add sugars and blend until smooth. Add flours, blending until still dough forms. Press into greased 9 X 13 pan. Sprinkle top with coconut and sliced almonds and press into dough. Bake at 350 for 15 minutes. They turn out perfectly sweet and crispy. So Yum.
