Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups almond flour
  • 1/4 cup unsweetened shredded coconut
  • 1/4 cup chopped pecans or walnuts
  • 1/4 cup dark chocolate chips (use sugar-free for keto)
  • 2 tbsp chia seeds
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1/4 cup granulated erythritol or preferred keto-friendly sweetener
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup sugar-free maple syrup or sugar-free honey substitute

Instructions

1. Prepare for Baking
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

2. Mix Dry Ingredients
In a mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, shredded coconut, chopped pecans or walnuts, dark chocolate chips, chia seeds, baking soda, and salt. Stir until well combined.

3. Cream Butter and Sweetener
In a separate bowl, beat together the softened butter and granulated erythritol until creamy and smooth. Add the egg and vanilla extract, mixing until well combined. Gradually add the sugar-free maple syrup (or honey substitute) and mix thoroughly.

4. Combine Ingredients
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring until a cookie dough forms. If the dough is too sticky, refrigerate it for about 15 minutes to make it easier to handle.

5. Form Cookies
Use a spoon or your hands to shape the dough into balls, about 1-2 tablespoons each. Place them on the prepared baking sheet, and flatten each cookie slightly with the back of a spoon.

6. Bake
Bake the cookies for 10-12 minutes, or until golden brown around the edges. Allow them to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
