Can I have cookies on a keto diet

Being on a keto diet doesn’t mean you have to say goodbye to enjoying cookies. The ingredients that make cookies high in carbs are flour and sugar. Those can easily be substituted with almond flour and sweetener to make a low carb cookie option that will be a keto-friendly cookie!

What chocolate chips are keto-friendly

Avoid buying chocolate chips that had sweeteners with maltitol which tends to spike blood sugar. There are many solid dark and no sugar added chocolate or chocolate chips. Also, we love Lilys sugar free dark chocolate chips.

What are keto cookies made of

Keto cookies have no flour! The flour used to ensure that the cookies will be low carbs is almond flour or coconut flour or a combination of both. Then, sugar is also substituted with some form of keto-approved sweetener. Some Keto cookies will also have eggs, oil or butter, and flavors like vanilla and cocoa powder. Occasionally, nut butter is used in place of flour to make keto-cookies.

    These cookies are really dry. I find that is the case with coconut flour in most recipes. Although I didn’t use the chocolate chips because I didn’t have sugar free chips. Any suggestions?

    What in the world? Potting soil texture even with 3 eggs. Terribly disappointed that I used my Lilly’s chips.
    But in all fairness, most keto recipes I’ve tried are in need of a tweak or two.

  3. Brittany L Stephens says

    Super sad I didn’t read the comments first. I used 3 eggs AND added a little extra butter and these cookies are extremely dry. Also I am finding that even thru the dry, all I can taste is coconut flour.

  4. Cindy says

    I followed the recipe exactly. The dough was crumbly. And did not bake well. It fell apart. What should I do differently?

    • Rena says

      Hi there, so sorry there was a typo with the eggs. It needs 3 eggs! We just tested this again. The recipe is now fool proof perfect! Sorry about that.

      • Chris says

        Hi I see you updated the recipe to 3 eggs, but if you click on the print button, it still says 1 egg… So.. add one more dry and crumbly batch to the list. Please fix the print link. Thanks

        • Rena says

          Hi Chris. I just looked and the printable version is showing 3 eggs on my end. Please check again and try clearing your cache.

        • DAVID D. ROBINSON says

          It’s no help for these cookies. They are dry and very little sweetness. However, they didn’t crumble. The calories and the carbs are to much of a sacrifice for very little satisfaction. I will continue to try because I love sweets. As a diabetic, that’s not good.

  5. Liz says

    I just double batched the recipe but the cookie dough was very crumbled so I ended up to add one more egg and more oil. Is that expected as we don’t use AP? 🙁 felt like to increase the wet ingredients..

      • Liz says

        I used the all types of flours that you listed on the recipe. But I noticed that I cranked eggs ( cold temperature) into the melted coconut oil, it formed solid chuck which I believed that might cause the problem.

        • Rena says

          oh could be!Any time something comes out too crumbly the safest thing to do is add some unsweetened almond milk 1 tablespoon at a time

      • Jennifer L Polizzi says

        I had the same thing happen! I followed the recipe as written and have a mixture with a texture resembling potting soil. Seems to need more moisture. Maybe more butter?

        • Rena says

          Hi Jennifer. Sorry for the inconvenience. There was a typo with the number of eggs. It has now been updated

    • Rena says

      Hi. So I looked into the nutrition facts calculator and it seems like it wasn’t pulling the sugar-free chocolate chips which made that amount much higher than it should be. sorry about that, It’s now fixed.
