  • ¼ cup50g coconut oil (melted)

Directions

  1. 1

    Preheat the oven to 180 Celsius / 350 Fahrenheit.

    Combine the dry ingredients - almond flour, erythritol, baking powder and salt - in a bowl.

  3. 3

    In a separate bowl, mix together the melted coconut oil, orange zest, vanilla and egg. Stir into the dry ingredients until a dough forms.

    Last, stir the cranberries into the dough.
