Poor grammar, bullying and drunks.
They look yummy! May I ask if there is sweetener in the recipe, please?

Is almond flour just finer than ground almonds and what fat do you use?xx

I used Willow butter which had to be melted first, then the other ingredients added to it, also first time I have made these.

I couldn't remember who posted it, but thank you and they taste lovely, very short and crumbly, but I would add a little more grated lemon zest next time ( I love anything lemon ):)

The first time I made them I didn’t think they were lemony enough, so subsequent batches I’ve a tsp of lemon extract :hungry:

Thanks for posting the recipe and photo, made a batch this afternoon and they were a great success, especially with my OH.
