Get the Recipe: Low Carb Cookies
These low carb chocolate chip cookies are thick, soft and fluffy! They are quick and easy to make. Only one mixing bowl and no dough chilling required. These cookies are made with low carb and sugar free ingredients!
Ingredients
- ¾ cup cold unsalted butter
- ½ cup granulated monk fruit sweetener
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 eggs
- ½ tsp baking soda
- 3 cups almond flour
- pinch sea salt, optional
- ½ cup sugar free chocolate chips
Instructions
- First, preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a baking pan with parchment paper.
- In the bowl of a stand mixer, add cold butter and monk fruit sweetener. Mix on high for 2 to 3 minutes, until completely creamed together. Be sure there are no clumps of butter left.
- Then, add in vanilla and eggs. Stir to combine.
- Add in baking soda, almond flour and sea salt. Stir to combine.
- Fold in chocolate chips.
- Use an ice cream scooper to scoop balls of dough onto lined pan. Space at least 2 inches apart.
- Bake for 11 to 12 minutes or until edges are lightly golden.
- Finally, remove cookies from oven. Allow them to cool on pan for 10 minutes before carefully transferring to a cooling rack.
Notes
- Use cold butter right from the fridge. Do not use melted or softened butter.
- I have not tested this recipe using any other sweetener. The granulated monk fruit sweetener works perfectly.
- Do not try to mix by hand. The butter must be creamed together with the sweetener.
- The cookie dough will look more soft than traditional dough.
- Use an ice cream scooper to scoop balls of dough. This creates evenly sized, round cookies.
- Do not over bake. The cookies should look just set in the middle and lightly golden around the edges.
- Store in an airtight container for up to 4 days.
- Freeze for 1 month if needed.
