1/2 cup + 2 Tablespoons vital wheat gluten *
2 teaspoons baking soda
1/2 cup softened butter
2/3 cup granular Splenda
2 Tablespoons Brown Sugar Twin *

Preheat oven to 300°F.


Cream butter with Splenda, molasses, and Brown Sugar Twin in a large bowl. Add DaVinci Sugarfree Gingerbread syrup and spices and mix well. Set aside.

In a separate bowl, sift together almond flour, vital wheat gluten, and baking soda. Gradually add flour mixture to butter mixture. Combine to make a stiff dough.

Form into small balls and place on greased cookie sheet at least 1" apart.

Bake at 300°F for 24 minutes. After first five minutes in the oven, press cookies down a bit flat. If using Diabetisweet to sprinkle tops, do this now. Continue baking, being careful not to burn and adjusting time for your oven.
