Recipe Summary

Prep time: 10 mins

Cook time: 12 mins

Servings: 12

Yield: 12

Ingredient Checklist

  • 1 cup almond butter (make sure it’s unsweetened and natural)
  • 1/2 cup erythritol or your preferred keto-friendly sweetener
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • A pinch of salt
  • Optional: 1/4 cup sugar-free chocolate chips or chopped nuts for extra flavor and texture

Instructions Checklist

Step 1

  • Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and ensure even baking.

Step 2

  • Mix the Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, combine the almond butter, erythritol, egg, vanilla extract, baking soda, and salt.
  • Mix well until all ingredients are fully incorporated and you have a smooth dough.
  • If you’re adding chocolate chips or nuts, fold them into the dough at this stage.

Step 3

  • Form the Cookies: Use a tablespoon or a small cookie scoop to portion out the dough.
  • Roll each portion into a ball and place it onto the prepared baking sheet.
  • Flatten each ball slightly with a fork, creating a crisscross pattern on top.

Step 4

  • Bake: Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for about 10–12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown.
  • Keep an eye on them, as almond flour can brown quickly.

Step 5

  • Cool: Remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. This helps them set and firm up.

Step 6

  • Enjoy: Once cooled, enjoy your delicious and keto-friendly almond butter cookies with a cup of tea or coffee.
  • Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week.

Tips for Success:

Consistency: Ensure your almond butter is well-mixed before using it. Sometimes, the oil can separate in natural almond butter.

Sweetness: Adjust the sweetener to your taste. You can always add a little more or less based on your preference.

Texture: If you prefer a crunchier cookie, bake them for an additional 1–2 minutes, but be careful not to overbake.

Variations:

Chocolate Drizzle: Melt some sugar-free chocolate and drizzle it over the cooled cookies for an extra touch of indulgence.

Coconut Flakes: Add unsweetened shredded coconut to the dough for a tropical twist.

Enjoy baking, my dear, and share these delightful treats with your loved ones! Happy baking!
