Finely grind the whole spices. Mix them with almond flour, low carb flour and baking powder. Sieve it together to mix well and avoid lumps. Cream the butter and add the egg, add vanilla extract and sweetener.
Mix the dry and wet ingredients together to form a smooth dough. Refrigerate the dough for 30 minutes. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and flatten the dough using another parchment paper on top (using a rolling pin).
Cut out shapes using a cookie cutter. Repeat this process with the remaining dough. Bake the cookies at 180 C in a preheated oven for 10 minutes. Allow the cookies to cool down before consuming them.
