Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a nonstick liner
- Wash & slice strawberries, toss in lemon juice as set aside
- In a bowl, whisk together all the dry ingredients and then add in the cold ghee in small chunks to form small dough crumbs
- In a small bowl, whisk eggs and sweetener and then add into the dry mixture along with the strawberries to form a sticky dough.
