    EASY Keto Cookies! These are THE BEST Low Carb Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies you'll ever make, and ONLY 2 NET CARBS!

    The BEST Chewy Keto Cookies

     

    Keto cookies don't get better than today's Low Carb Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookie Recipe!

    I've made a lot of low carb cookie recipes over the past few months - like these, and these - but today's recipe may very well be the best keto cookie recipe I've ever made.

    So what makes these the best keto cookies?

    Well, for one, they only take 15 minutes from start-to-finish to make. So if you're looking for an easy keto cookie recipe, this is it!

    Secondly, these Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies are incredibly soft and chewy. And that's certainly not an easy feat to pull off when you're making low carb cookies. 

    Deliciously Easy Keto Cookies

    Also, these cookies are incredibly delicious! Every bite has the perfect amount of sweetness, even though there's actually no sugar added to them.

    Honestly, you'd never know these were low carb keto cookies unless somebody told you they were.

    EASY Keto Cookies! These are THE BEST Low Carb Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies you'll ever make. Plus, they ONLY have 2 NET CARBS!

    How To Make Keto Cookies With The LOWEST Carbs Possible

     

    Cookies are typically loaded with carbs. The two main ingredients to almost all cookie recipes are flour and sugar. Both of which are basically just all carbs.

    So, naturally we'll have to avoid using those 2 ingredients in our keto cookies. 

    Instead, we'll use Almond Flour, and Swerve. 

    The BEST Almond Flour To Use For Your Keto Cookies

     

    Almond flour works great as a low carb keto friendly flour substitute. There are a few different kinds of almond flour that you can buy, but the Kirkland's Blanched Almond Flour is what I recommend.

    I say that because the Kirkland's Almond Flour is MUCH cheaper than other brands, and it has the lowest amount of net carbs per serving. Every 28 grams of that almond flour has just 2 net carbs.

    Using Swerve To Sweeten Up Your Cookies

     

    Swerve is a fantastic 0 carb replacement for sugar. I use Swerve to sweeten up all of my recipes, and it worked especially nice in today's Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Keto Cookie Recipe.

    With that being said, you can either get the Granulated Swerve, or Confectioners Swerve. I prefer to use the Confectioners in almost all of my recipes because it dissolves so much better than the granulated kind. So, that's the kind I'd recommend getting, and it's also the one I used for the keto cookies today.

    The BEST Chocolate Chips For Keto Cookies

     

    Lily's Chocolate Chips are a low carb keto game changer. They are absolutely delicious, have no-sugar-added to them, and every serving has only 2g net carbs.

    In my opinion, there is no better option as far as keto chocolate chips go, and you'll save a ton of carbs by using them. Also, you can use them to make these incredible sugar free chocolate chip cookies - each cookie has just 59 calories!

    Do NOT Substitute Ingredients

     

    By the way, DO NOT substitute coconut flour for the almond flour. They have different absorption properties and the cookies will not work.

    Also, DO NOT substitute stevia or Splenda for the Swerve. However, you can substitute it with Monk Fruit, and you can also substitute it with other kinds of erythritol too.

    Anyways, if you use all of the same ingredients I used for my cookies, each one will only have 2g of net carbs! So, I encourage you to use them because I know they'll turn out perfect if you do.

    • Prep Time: 5
    • Cook Time: 10
    • Total Time: 15 minutes
    • Yield: 15 Cookies 1x
    • Category: Dessert

    Ingredients

    Scale

    5 Tbsps (70g) Natural No-Sugar-Added Peanut Butter

    1 Tbsp (14g) Melted Coconut Oil

    A Large Egg

    1 Tsp PURE Vanilla Extract

    1 Cup (112g) Kirkland's Blanched Almond Flour

    3 Tbsps (42g) Confectioners Swerve

    Just less than ¼ Cup (35g) Lilly's NO SUGAR ADDED Chocolate Chips

    ½ Tsp Baking Soda

    ¼ Baking Powder

    Pinch of salt

    Instructions

    Preheat your oven to 325 Degrees

    Next, add all of the liquid ingredients into a large bowl

    Now, mix and combine them with a spatula

    So, now at this point you'll want to dd all of the dry ingredients into the same bowl

    Once you've done that mix and combine all of the ingredients with a spatula until a batter starts to form

    Once it does, use your hands to form a ball of dough, and set the bowl aside

    Now, line a baking sheet with parchment paper, and coat the parchment paper with baking spray

    Use a Tablespoon Sized Cookie Scoop, and add 12 equal sized scoops to the baking sheet

    Bake the cookies for around 8-10 minutes

    They will be soft to the touch - almost cake like - this is normal, but the edges should be golden brown

    Let them cool down completely on the baking sheet

    Once they completely cool down and set they'll become firm, and much more cookie like

    Enjoy!

    Notes

    *NOTE: Macros don't account for the erythritol sweetener, it has ZERO CALORIES.

    2 NET CARBS PER COOKIE:

    4g Carbs - 2g Fiber = 2g NET CARBS

      Hands down the best keto cookie recipe I've ever made. Even my children ate these! Instead of using 3 tablespoons of confectioners serve I used 2 tablespoons of it and 1 tablespoon of the brown sugar serve. These cookies are amazing!

      These cookies are amazing. Totally impressed! I used monkfruit equal to swerve because I just bought it and wanted to try it. I also love swerve. These cookies had the almond flour texture which I found very similar to eating and oatmeal cookie(which I miss)
      These were really really good

      Delish!! Used 1T Swerve brown sugar and 2T Allulose. They were so soft and chewy-just the way I want my cookies to be!! Thanks for the recommendation of Kirkland Almond Flour. Will switch to it when my brand is gone.

      I made these tonight and with 4 of us here- they disappeared fast! They are delicious and melt in your mouth. Are the macros based on making 12 cookies or 15? Your yield says 15 but your instructions sa0y to make 12. Either way- worth it!

      Absolutely delicious! Even my sweets-loving nephew enjoyed these. Moist, delicious, just sweet enough. I used butter-flavored coconut oil and Bob's superfine almond flour. They came out amazing! Many thanks!!

      So far the best cookie recipe I have tried. I would like to try it with less flour and more peanut butter (there can never be enough of peanut butter…). I also wonder if I could increase the sweetener a bit, although this version has no bitter after taste.

      Cookies need to be pressed with a fork, as they do not spread and will come out in a ball. Very good flavor
