Ingredients

    2 cups pecan halves
    4 Tbsp unsalted butter, softened
    2 cups maltitol brown sugar (Nature's Sweet brown crystals)
    2 eggs
    2.5 tsp vanilla extract
    1/2 cup Arrowhead Mills gluten free all-purpose baking mix (If unavailable, use 1/2 cup brown rice or quinoa flour and double the salt and baking soda below)
    1/4 tsp baking powder
    Pinch of salt

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
2. In food processor, finely chop pecans. In bowl, with mixer on low speed, beat butter and maltitol until well blended. Beat in egg and vanilla. Add flour, baking powder, and salt; beat until blended. Stir in pecans.
3. Spoon batter by heaping measuring teaspoonfuls onto prepared baking sheets, spacing about 3 inches apart. Bake 10-14 minutes, until a deep golden brown and cookies have started to flatten out.
4. Let cookies cool on baking sheet 5 minutes or until firm; remove to wire rack to cool completely.
5. (optional - not included in nutrition calculation) Dip one edge of cookies into melted sugar-free dark chocolate. Place on waxed paper; let stand until set. Store in airtight container, between sheets of waxed paper, up to 1 week.
