Notes

If you have some ICING sweetener, mix some with a little lemon juice to decorate the biscuits before serving. You could also use a cutter to make shapes of your choice. You may like to be a little more adventurous than me. Divide the values by the number of biscuits you have made to find the values per biscuit. Ideal for low carb treats.
I made 8 each shortcake will have: 7.78g fat / 0.88g protein / 0.56g CHO

Ingredients

30g PANDA flour
60g Butter
3g Lemon peel
20g Ground almonds
You will also need 15g granular sweetener of your choice, I used TRUVIA.

Instructions

Pre heat oven to 180c / fan 160c / gas 5.
Grate the lemon on a FINE grater, then weigh out 3g.
Soften the butter and add the sweetener, beat well adding the lemon peel until evenly mixed.
Add the PANDA flour and ground almonds, mix to form a stiff dough, form into a 4-inch log shape using cling film to help you, leave in the fridge for 10 minutes to firm up.
Cut into rounds (I made 8), place on a nonstick or lined baking tray, flattening out but not too thin. Cook for approximately 10 minutes depending on the size you have made, leave to go cold on a wire rack.
Store in an airtight container – they will keep for several days.
