Ingredients
Method
- Instructions:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line a cupcake tray with 10 cupcake tins. Set aside.
- Chop Strawberries and set them aside.
- In a large bowl combine the blanched almond flour, starch, salt, and baking powder. Cut in the butter or shortening into pea-sized pieces. Stir in the eggs ever so gently until the dough holds together.
- Take heaping teaspoon pieces of dough and roll them in your hand with a small pinch of strawberries. (Pressing the strawberries into the dough!) (NOTE: As the strawberries and the dough sit together the dough will start to get wet and mushy- this is why I’m having you add the strawberries as you form each ball vs. just mixing the strawberries in with the dough from the start).
- Roll the round strawberry stuffed biscuit dough pieces in a small bowl of sugar. Place the sugar-coated ball into a muffin tin. Continue this process by placing 6-7 sugar-crusted balls into each tin. Press down gently just to help assure they stick together. Continue with this process until all ten cupcake liners are filled with mounts of sugar-crusted strawberry biscuit balls.
- Place into oven and bake 30 minutes. The dough will feel cooked through and slightly golden.
- Drizzle with the sugar glaze. Use either A) regular powdered sugar mixed with a tiny bit of water or lemon juice. or B) Make your powdered sugar by placing granulated sugar of choice (such as xylitol, Truvia baking blend, etc.) into a blender or coffee grinder. Process until sugar becomes powdered. Mix powdered sugar with a tiny bit of water or lemon juice to create a glaze.
