How to Make Low Fat Almond Love Drops

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a food processor, combine 1 cup almond flour, 1/4 cup powdered sugar, 1/4 teaspoon ground cardamom (optional), 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 2 large egg whites. Process until a smooth paste forms.
  3. Drop rounded teaspoons of the almond paste onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between each drop.
  4. Using a wet spoon or toothpick, gently create a small indentation in the center of each cookie.
  5. Fill each indentation with approximately 1/2 teaspoon of your favorite fruit preserves (apricot, raspberry, or fig are recommended).
  6. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown. Keep a close eye on them to prevent burning.
  7. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
