Notes

  • If the dough feels too sticky, refrigerate it for 20-30 minutes before baking.
  • Coconut flour helps with texture but can be omitted if necessary (replace with ¼ cup more almond flour).
  • Sweeteners like erythritol or monk fruit blend work best for a balanced taste.
  • Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days or refrigerate for longer freshness.

Tips for the Best Keto Cookies

✔️ Use finely ground almond flour – This prevents a grainy texture.
✔️ Don’t overbake – Cookies will continue cooking as they cool.
✔️ Chill the dough – This helps control spreading and improves texture.
✔️ Use room temperature butter and egg – This ensures even mixing.

Q&A

🔹 Can I substitute almond flour with coconut flour?
Not directly. Coconut flour is highly absorbent, so you’d need ⅓ cup coconut flour for every 1 cup almond flour, and additional eggs/moisture.

🔹 What’s the best sugar substitute?
Monk fruit-erythritol blends or allulose work best for taste and texture.

🔹 Why are my cookies too dry?
You may have used too much coconut flour or overbaked them. Reduce baking time and ensure proper ingredient measurements.
