Net Carbs for 2 cookies: 3g

Brenda’s Notes:

  • If you don’t have Swerve sweetener you can also use another sugar free sweetener like Sukrin Gold which is a brown sugar sub. I would use only ½ cup of another sweetener since Swerve is much less sweet than most other granulated substitutes.
  • If you have pumpkin pie spice you can use 2 ½ teaspoons instead of the spices I used.
  • If you have no nut allergies in your family, the sunflower seeds can be subbed with almonds.
  • PLEASE NOTE: If you use all ready store bought ground sunflower seeds you will NOT get the texture here. You need unsalted, raw sunflower seeds and when you grind them in your food processor, just pulse a few seconds, you want to still be able to see the seeds.
