keto blondies recipe

Just imagine that you can enjoy a fluffy and gooey dessert that is also keto, gluten-free and sugar-free.

These Keto Blondies are super easy to make in just one bowl using some super simple ingredients that you already have in your kitchen.

Since I started to make these delicious keto blondies, my family always requests them over traditional brownies any day for any occasion. Why? Because they are soft and moist in the middle and with a unique flavor from the low carb brown sugar. Trust me when I say that will satisfy any sweet tooth.

Ingredients For Keto Blondies

To make these delicious keto blondies, you will need these simple ingredients:

  • Eggs –  They are used to bind these keto blondies and provide structure. Large eggs are best in this recipe. If your eggs are smaller you’ll probalby need more.
  • Butter – provides that buttery taste and makes the keto blondies super moist.
  • Vanilla Extract – Keto Blondies are always better with vanilla extract! It adds that fantastic flavor that you can’t get in any other way!
  • Brown Sugar Alternative – You can use erythritol-based sweeteners or brown sugar substitutes such as Sukrin Gold.
  • Almond Flour – Almond flour help these keto blondies to be fluffy and light. It’s full of healthy fats, fiber, and some plant-based protein. One of the best replacements there is for regular flour.
  • Coconut Flour – Using both of these gluten-free flour helps with the texture.
  • Baking Powder & Salt – helps to fluff the blondies when baking. 
  • Dark Chocolate Chips – You can chop your favorite sugar-free dark chocolate if you don’t have any chocolate chips.

How To Make These Keto Blondies

 You only need to follow some easy steps to make these tasty keto blondies. Trust me when I say that you are not going to find an easier recipe than this.

step by step instructions on how to make keto blondies
  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F and prepare a baking pan. I prefer to use parchment paper because it makes lifting the pieces out of the pan and cutting them into squares simpler.
  2. Make the keto blondies batter. Combine all the wet ingredients and mix until frothy.
  3. Incorporate the dry ingredients until a smooth batter with no lumps visible forms.
  4. Add the sugar-free chocolate chips or your favorite nuts. You can keep a few for the top. 
  5. Bake these low carb blondies for almost 30 minutes. Allow them to cool before cutting into squares.

Tips For Making The Best Keto Blondies

  • Make sure to beat the batter for at least 5 minutes. It will help the ingredients to combine well and become thicker.
  • On the top of these keto blondies, you can add some flaky sea salt for a sweet and salty combo.

Can I Add Nuts To This Recipe?

Yes! Adding chopped pecans or walnuts can give these keto blondies a little bit of a crunch and additional flavor.

How To Store These Sugar-Free Keto Blondies

  • You can store them in the fridge for up to one week.
  • If you are not a big fan of storing the desserts in the refrigerator, you will be happy to know that these keto blondies can be stored at room temperature for about three days.

You can even freeze them. Place blondies in the fridge for about one hour, then transfer them to a freezer bag and place them in the freezer. When you want to eat them, defrost them overnight and reheat in the microwave for a few seconds.

How do I know when the keto blondies are Done?

Look for blondies to be golden around the edges and to pull away from the sides of the pan slightly.

The top should be set, but the middle may appear softer (or less done) than the sides. This is fine! Allow it to rest fir a few minutes. Also, a skewer inserted in the middle should come out clean.

How Are Blondies Different From Brownies?

The main difference between a brownie and a blondie is that blondies don’t contain cocoa powder. While brownies have a strong chocolatey taste, blondies are made without cocoa and have rich notes of vanilla and butter.

Blondies have a chewier texture and a more molasses-like flavor than brownies because of brown sugar and butter. And thanks to brown Swerve, you can adapt the traditional keto blondie recipe to a keto diet.

Can You Make These Keto Blondies Vegan?

Certainly yes. These delicious keto blondies are keto and gluten-free, but there is no problem if you are following a dairy-free or vegan diet.

You can easily replace the butter and eggs with coconut oil and flax eggs.

When I think of summer, blueberries and lemon are always on my mind. These two ingredients are either part of my daily lemonade or combined to make this fantastic low carb blueberry bread.

I know you loved my egg-free keto bread and it’s a top-rated recipe on this blog. I decided to create another keto bread that doesn’t taste eggy and perfect as a keto dessert or low carb bread.

When I meal prep, I’m always making a dessert for the week. It’s either this keto blueberry bread, delicious keto brownies, or a batch of the softest keto chocolate chip cookies.

The truth is I love my sweets and try to find the best sugar-free and gluten-free recipes. There’s no better way to start the morning than with a slice or two of this low carb blueberry bread and a serving of keto yogurt or with a mug of warm Bulletproof Coffee. So Delicious and Filling!

Ingredients for Low Carb Keto Blueberry Bread

This keto blueberry bread needs only a few low carb ingredients, a small loaf pan, and an oven to bake it. These are all the ingredients you’ll need:

  • Eggs: It’s best to use large eggs at room temperature.
  • Almond Flour & Coconut Flour: We are using a combo of these two low carb flours to get the perfect bread texture. I recommend using both flours in this specific recipe.
  • Blueberries: My favorite low carb fruit to use in this keto pound cake. You can use strawberries, raspberries. Fresh or Frozen? Both are perfect!
  • Sweetener: Erythritol is the best sweetener because it’s cheap, low in carbs, and doesn’t impact blood sugar. Monk Fruit sweetener it’s also great in this recipe, and it has no aftertaste.
  • Heavy Cream or Coconut Cream: For a dairy-free gluten-free blueberry bread, use coconut cream (the canned one). It’s as creamy as heavy cream, and you’ll make a delicious paleo blueberry bread
  • Vanilla Extract & Baking Powder: 2 ingredients that never miss from my keto baked goods. One adds tons of flavor and the other one, a leavening agent that makes the bread super airy and delicious

Easy Keto Crème Brûlée – Just 5 Ingredients

by Joanna
written by Joanna

This keto Crème Brûlée is a delicate, vanilla-flavored “burned cream” dessert that resembles a decadent custard. It’s my sugar-free take on this classic dessert that’s equally delicious and easy to make. You’ll need just 5 ingredients to make the creamiest keto sweet treat that’s also gluten-free and low carb.

This keto Crème Brûlée is a delicate, vanilla-flavored "burned cream" dessert that resembles a decadent custard. It's my sugar-free take on this classic dessert that's equally delicious and easy to make.

The glorious silky custard reminded me of our family trips to Spain when I was just a little child. I ate it for breakfast, lunch, and dinner at our hotel. It was that good!

Although the origins of this dessert are not certain, I first enjoyed it in Spain, then in France, and then I ate a donut filled with custard cream in England.

It’s one of those recipes easy to make low carb. The only thing that’s different from the original is that we use a sweetener instead of sugar.

For this dessert you need just 5 ingredients: super easy and delicious!

What is Crème Brûlée?

Crème Brûlée is a dessert that has a creamy custard filling that’s topped with a caramelized sugar topping. It’s one of those relatively easy to make desserts, with few ingredients – just 5 ingredients. It’s usually served with fresh berries.

I’m all about simplicity when it comes to cooking, especially with my full-time job and night shifts. My program is super chaotic, so I’m always looking for flavorful dishes that take under 1 hour to be ready.

This recipe is actually as easy to make as my mug cake or keto lava cake. You can try those desserts if you’re more into chocolate.

Ingredients to Make Keto Crème Brûlée

easy vanilla dessert with crispy topping

For this easy keto dessert, you’ll need just a few basic ingredients that you probably already have in your kitchen.

  • heavy cream – don’t opt for low-fat cream here because we’ll miss the creaminess.
  • egg yolks – gives creme brule that classic velvety taste, making this keto vanilla custard set.
  • sweetener – choose a sweetener replacement that caramelizes nicely and gives that subtle caramel flavor.
  • whole vanilla bean – brings out the best vanilla flavor and it’s my favorite to use in this recipe. Vanilla extract is also great, but it’s essential to be pure vanilla flavor. Imitation vanilla essence will make this dessert taste artificial. 

How to Make Keto Crème Brûlée?

Learn how to make this 5 ingredients only keto dessert: creme brulee.
  1. Start by prepping the ramekins. I’ve made this recipe using different sizes of ramekins, and while all sizes work, my favorite is the 4-ounce ramekin. Add the ramekins to a metal pan and set them aside. We’ll bake them in a water bath.
  2. To make the custard filling: beat egg yolks with vanilla bean seeds and sugar substitute. Using organic eggs will give that pretty yellow color. The vanilla pod won’t get to waste because it will simmer in the heavy cream mixture to bring out the incredible flavor. If you don’t have a vanilla bean, replace it with a high-quality pure vanilla extract.
  3. To bake the vanilla custard: Combine the warm heavy cream mixture with the egg yolks and pour into the ramekins. Surround the ramekins with boiling water and bake for 30-35 minutes or until the center is slightly jiggly. It’s important to cool completely before refrigerating for at least 3 hours.
  4. Serve the keto creme brulee: When you’re ready to serve, sprinkle some powdered erythritol and use a torch to caramelize and get crispy. Serve with a dollop of whipped cream and fresh berries.

PRO TIP: If you don’t have a kitchen torch, move your oven rack to the top position and heat your broil to high. Once hot, add the custards topped with sweetener and broil for about 1 to 3 minutes. Watch closely, so it doesn’t burn.

What Sweetener to Use?

Choosing the right sweetener for this low carb creme brulee recipe sounds a little intimidating because you have to find one that caramelizes well. Here are the best sweeteners that caramelize and brown just like sugar:

  • Monk Fruit Allulose Blend
  • Allulose – has zero carbs and acts just as sugar in baked goods.
  • Inulin – Another great sweetener that caramelizes, but it’s not that sweet.

Can I Make Vegan Creme Brulee?

It’s possible to make a keto vegan creme brulee but you’ll need to switch this recipe and follow other directions to make sure it tastes incredible.

Ingredients you’ll need for dairy-free creme brulee:

  • 3 cups unsweetened vanilla almond milk or coconut
  • 3/4 cup sugar substitute of choice
  • 1/2 cup cornstarch
  • 1 tbsp vanilla extract

To make vegan custard mix all the ingredients in a large bowl using a whisk. All the ingredients should be well mixed without any clumps. Transfer the mixture to a saucepan over medium heat and whisk constantly until it starts to thicken. Transfer the mixture to 6 ramekins and let cool at room temperature. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours before serving. Optional, you can spring;e some sweetener and use a torch to caramelize. Enjoy with fresh berries and coconut whipped cream.

Is Keto Creme Brulee Low Carb?

All the ingredients used in this recipe are low carb and a serving of this keto vanilla dessert is only 4g of carbs.

Keto Lemon Bars are a delightful sugar-free recipe with a wonderful balanced sweet and tangy flavor. You’ll love the bright yellow color, the melt-in-your-mouth shortbread almond crust, and the lusciously thick lemon filling.

These are the best lemon bars and everyone loves them. They are super easy to make with only 7 ingredients.

I’m a huge chocolate fan, and I bet you are too. But sometimes I crave a delicious summer lemony treat that I always bring to family gatherings. Nobody ever figures out that they are sugar-free, gluten-free, and keto dessert.

Only 7 Ingredients Sugar-Free Lemon Bars

The ingredients for these keto lemon bars have an almond flour shortbread crust, topped with a divine lemon topping. I’m grateful for almond flour and low carb sweetener because I have to opportunity to bake such delicious treats that everyone loves.

  • Unsalted Butter: Melted Butter is used in the shortbread crust and it’s an essential ingredient making the base buttery and extremely decadent.
  • Sweetener: In this recipe, I use both granulated erythritol and powdered erythritol. It’s essential to use granulated sweetener for the crust and powdered for the lemon filling to make it smooth and creamy.
  • Almond Flour: Almond flour is used both in the crust and the lemon filling because it helps with the texture and structure. I recommend using extra fine almond flour to be sure your lemon bars won’t turn grainy.
  • Vanilla Extract: I use vanilla extract in the shortbread crust to enhance the taste.
  • Salt: A pinch of salt to balance the sweetness is perfect!
  • Eggs: Eggs bind everything together and help the bars
  • Lemon Juice: My suggestion is to use freshly squeezed lemon juice for the best flavor. You can also use lime juice or orange juice (not low carb).

How to Make Keto Lemon Bars?

This recipe is incredibly quick and easy to make. You’ll need to make a keto shortbread crust and a lemon filling. Follow a few easy steps to make perfect low carb lemon bars:

  • Prepare the crust: Mix all the ingredients for the shortbread crust and evenly press into an 8×8 inch glass baking pan lined with baking paper.
  • Bake the crust: Pre-baking the crust will ensure two beautiful layers.
  • Make the lemon filling: Just mix all the ingredients for the crust and wait for the crust to slightly cool down.
  • Bake the lemon bars: Bake again for 22-25 minutes or until the lemon filling is set.
  • Cool: Remove the bars from the oven and allow to completely cool down before serving.
  • Dust with powdered sweetener and cut into 16 squares and enjoy!

3 Tips to Make The Best Lemon Bars Every Time

  1. Use freshly squeezed lemon juice – For that depth of flavor, I recommend using fresh lemon juice. I know it’s convenient to get bottled lemon juice, but you’ll miss the flavor.
  2. Do not overbake! If you notice cracks on top of the lemon bar it means they are overcooked. But, that’s not a problem, these low carb lemon square recipe still taste incredibly delicious. Just dust them tons of powdered sweetener!
  3. Use powdered sweetener – I mentioned it above and I mention it here! It’s vital to use some sore of sweetener turned into powder if you want creamy lemon bars.

written by Joanna

These keto blueberry muffins are extremely easy to make, golden and crispy on the outside and moist and fluffy on the inside. They are dairy-free and gluten-free muffins making them not only keto-friendly but paleo too. Each paleo muffin has only 2g net carbs.

Blueberry muffins with only 2g carbs.

Watch the quick video below where I show you how to make them.

Ingredients for Keto Paleo Blueberry Muffins

These grain-free muffins are made with almond flour and coconut flour which makes them gluten-free and very healthy.

You can make these muffins with fresh or frozen blueberries. Don’t defrost the blueberries before adding them!

Here’s everything you’ll need:

  • 3 eggs, room temperature
  • 1/2 cup almond flour
  • 2 tbsp coconut flour
  • 1/4 cup fresh blueberries
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 2 tbsp coconut cream or heavy whipping cream
  • 1/4 cup Erythritol or 1 tbsp liquid sweetener
  • 2 tbsp coconut oil or butter, melted
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1/4 – 1/2 cup unsweetened plant-based milk (coconut milk or almond milk)

How to Make Paleo Coconut Cream Lemon Frosting for Muffins

  • 1/2 cup (7 oz) coconut cream, chilled
  • a few stevia drops
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract (optional)
  • 1 tbsp fresh lemon juice

I love to make these blueberry muffins with butter and heavy whipping cream, but I decided to give a try and make them dairy-free. My boyfriend is on a dairy-free keto diet, trying to get rid of Candida Overgrowth. The muffins were a hit and took a few at work with him!!

These blueberry muffins are perfect for a quick breakfast paired with my 2 ingredients keto yogurt.

How to make Keto Paleo Blueberry Muffins?

  1. Preheat the oven to 360F/180C. Line a muffin tin with muffin cups and spray them with oil.
  2. In a bowl mix 3 eggs using a hand mixer until frothy.
  3. Add the coconut cream (or heavy whipping cream), the melted coconut oil, vanilla extract, and sweeter. Continue mixing for about 60 seconds.
  4. In a separate bowl combine the almond flour, coconut flour, and baking powder.
  5. Mix the flour with the egg mixture until well combined.
  6. Using a spatula, incorporate the blueberries into the batter.
  7. Divide the batter into 9 muffin cups and bake for 20-25 minutes.
  8. Let the blueberry muffins cool for about 5-10 minutes before serving.
  9. Meanwhile, prepare the coconut cream lemon frosting. Using a hand mixer whip the coconut cream, stevia drops, lemon juice, and vanilla extract until fluffy.
  10. Top each muffin with enough lemon frosting and enjoy!

TIP NO. 1: Sprinkle 1 tbsp Erythritol on the top of the muffins before baking them to make them crunchy and delicious.

TIP NO. 2. Use erythritol you want super moist blueberry muffins. I noticed that the texture is very different when I use erythritol: it’s moist and less dry.

How many carbs are in the keto blueberry muffins?

If you are wondering how many carbs are in each keto blueberry muffins I’ve got you covered. I try my best to provide accurate nutritional information of each recipe I post. With ingredients I used, each muffin has around 3g carbs, 1g fiber, so 2g net carbs*.

*Net Carbs = Total Carb Count – Dietary Fiber – Sugar Alcohols ( from Xylitol and Erythritol)

I hope you’ll try this recipe, and show me how it turned out by mentioning me on Instagram @myketoplate_ .

World’s Best Fudgy Keto Brownies Recipe

by Joanna
written by Joanna

These keto brownies are super moist, fudgy, perfectly rich and chocolatey. Make the world’s best brownie recipe and enjoy an incredibly sugar-free 6 ingredients dessert with only 1g net carb per serving!

keto brownies

I’m not afraid to call these the world’s best keto brownies because they indeed are my family’s favorite dessert – and they aren’t even on a keto diet.

Finding the best recipe was a long road of trial and error. However, I am proud to share with you these insanely fudgy and moist brownies that have a crispy top. On top of that, these melt in your mouth brownies are entirely grain-free and sugar-free. I can honestly say that I would choose the keto version over the “regular” brownies at any time.

Watch the recipe video below to see exactly how to make the brownies.

Should I stop talking about how amazingly fudgy and chocolatey these keto brownies are and start sharing the recipe with you? Well, I just finished shooting the brownies, and I hope the pictures express their deliciousness well enough. Needless to say, I’m eating one right now as I write this blog post and my keyboard is full of chocolate goodness -the kind of mess I love.

world's brownies easy to make recipe

Ingredients for World’s Best Fudgy Keto Brownies Recipe

Hopefully, you’ll try these keto brownies, friends, because they are my absolute favorite dessert and I could eat them every day.

ingredients for the brownies

To transform the “regular” brownies into a keto version we have to ditch the sugar, the wheat flour and milk chocolate (suuuuper high in sugar).

  • 1/2 cup almond flour or 2 tbsp coconut flour
  • 3/4 – 1 cup Erythritol – This is the best sweetener to use in this recipe as it has no funky after taste!
  • 3 eggs, room temperature
  • 10 tbsp butter, softened
  • 1/4 cup cocoa powder
  • 3.5 oz dark chocolate (or unsweetened chocolate chips)
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp espresso powder
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Tips for choosing the best ingredients

The quality of the ingredients is crucial for the best keto brownies. I’ll share with you some of the tips I think truly make a difference in this recipe.

  1. Chose high-quality chocolate. Use the highest cocoa percentage you can find – not 100% necessary to use 100% dark chocolate because it’s very expensive. Any chocolate with a percentage of 85-99% is perfect. My favorite brands are Lindt, Baker’s Chocolate and Lilys’s Chocolate Chips (completely sugar-free).
  2. Use a super fine almond flour. The almond flour combined with cocoa powder helps a lot with the texture. If you want to use coconut flour, reduce the quantity of almond flour to about 2 tablespoons and adjust if necessary.
  3. The sweeteners I recommend and don’t give that cooling effect ( no aftertaste ) are Lakanto Monkfruit (1:1 sugar substitute) and the powdered Monk Fruit Erythritol Blend from SoNourished. The second favorite brands are Swerve, Erythritol, and Xylitol. Using a powdered sweetener keeps the brownies moist (at least that’s what I’ve noticed). Stevia isn’t a favorite of mine in baked goods as it tends to get bitter and overpowers the chocolate goodness.
world's best keto brownies

How to make the best keto brownies

  1. Preheat oven to 375F. Line a 9×9 square baking pan with parchment paper or grease it with butter. Set aside.
  2. In a microwave-safe bowl, add the softened butter and chocolate. Melt in 30 seconds rounds and stir until they are well incorporated.
  3. In other bowl combine the dry ingredients: almond flour, cocoa powder, erythritol, espresso powder, baking powder.
  4. Beat the eggs for 30 seconds, then add the melted chocolate and continue mixing.
  5. Add the dry ingredients and mix until well incorporated. Try not to over mix the batter, to get the fudgiest brownie in the entire world.
  6. Pour the keto brownies batter into the pan and spread evenly with the back of a spatula
  7. Bake for about 18-20 minutes or until a crispy thin layer forms and the brownie is moist in the middle. Let it cool for a few minutes then cut it into 16 square. Enjoy! BONUS TIP: Make sure you don’t overbake the brownie because it will be cakey and not fudgy.

keto raspberry chia jam

How to Make Raspberry Chia Sugar-Free Jam?

by Joanna
written by Joanna

This raspberry chia sugar-free jam is the easiest jam you can make in 10 minutes using low carb fruits and the gelling power of the chia seeds. Forget about the tons of refined sugar used in the classic jam and make this fresh and easy chia berry jam recipe.

The easiest Sugar-Free Berry Chia Jam

To make this easy berry chia jam you can use any fresh or frozen berries. I don’t defrost the raspberries before using them to make this easy jam.

This recipe is not only easy to make, but also keto, paleo, whole30 and vegan. Each tablespoon of this keto jam has only 1g net carbs and 2g o fiber. It’s also very low in calories!

Chia seeds are a super food that’s high in omega-3 fatty acids, have tons of fiber and protein. These amazing seeds have the power to gel and absorb tons of liquid giving such an amazing jam texture.

I love this recipe because it’s healthy, low in carbs and has no refined sugar. With only 4 ingredients and 10 minutes of work we can enjoy a fantastic sugar-free jam. It’s ready almost INSTANTLY. I serve the with my favorite low carb yogurt for a quick breakfast or as a snack with nuts.

Strawberries, blackberries or a mix of berries are great to make this fantastic jam. This could not get more easy and versatile. Use any berries you like, add chia seeds and in 10 minutes serve a high in antioxidants sugar-free delicious jam.

The ingredients

  • Berries – These fruits are very tasty and low in carbs. Here I show you how I make my favorite chia jam with raspberries, but you can use any low carb fruits you love.
  • Chia Seeds – Packed with nutrients and fiber, these seeds have this amazing powder to gel and thicken the berries sauce transforming it into a delicious jam. I use white chia seeds because they are less visible in the jam, but the regular chia seeds are perfect to use, as well. As the jam cools down the chia seeds will thicken it.
  • Sweetener – Use 2-3 tablespoons of sweetener for every 2 cups of berries. For the keto jam, use an erythritol blend. If paleo use honey or coconut sugar. Use more or less depending on how sweet you perfect your jam to be.

Feel free to experiment and use different low carb fruits and flavours (Vanilla extract is a great addition). Depending on the desired consistency, use more or fewer chia seeds.

Best Keto Chocolate Chip Cookies – Soft Low Carb Cookies

by Joanna
written by Joanna

I am thrilled to show with you these keto chocolate chip cookies. Keto cookies that are low carb, gluten-free and sugar-free are fantastic with a cup of coffee or tea. They are ready in less than 20 minutes which is excellent because you don’t have to spend hours cooking or giving in and eat high carb cookies.

keto chocolate chip cookies

I’ve been keto for a while and actually never tried to make cookies in a low carb way. I tried this recipe without many expectations, and they are fantastic. To make it low carb I used almond flour, a sugar substitute that is low carb, high-quality butter, sugar-free chocolate chips and tons of passion.

I love that one cookie is big enough to make you feel satisfied, but I always eat 2 of them. These cookies are just so good.

Always use high-quality ingredients because they taste better and have more benefits. For example, for these sugar-free cookies, I used grass-fed butter because it contains 6 times more CLA than regular butter. CLA is a fatty acid found in meat and dairy products that help your body burn fat.

Ingredients for the keto chocolate chip cookies

keto chocolate chip cookies with almond flour

This is probably my 10th batch of keto cookies with chocolate chips and I tried a few variations of ingredients and this one (that I am sharing with you) turns perfect every time. I have a few friends that tried it and they are impressed too. It all starts with choosing the ingredients.

  • Almond Flour – Choose a superfine flour. The ones that have little chunks of almond won’t work as well as fine almond flour.
  • Grass-Fed Butter – It’s important to melt your butter but when mixing it with the other ingredients it shouldn’t be hot. Heat a saucepan and add the butter. When it starts to melt take it off the heat because it will continue to melt. This step is very important because using hot butter will make your dough too soft and you won’t be able to form the cookies into small balls that melt in the oven.
  • Sugar-Free Chocolate Chips – Using them will make the recipe low in carbs and sugar.
  • Xanthan Gum – This is a very important ingredient that’s often used in keto recipes as a substitute for gluten. It helps bind all the ingredients better. You only need a very small amount. The cookies are good without xanthan gum too but I prefer the version with xanthan gum.
  • Sweetener – We will use a keto approved sweetener that doesn’t raise the blood sugar and keeps us in ketosis.
  • Eggs – To bind all the ingredients together.

How to make keto chocolate chip cookies?

  1. Preheat the oven to 350F / 180 C.
  2. Melt the butter in the microwave or a hot pot. If your butter is too hot, let it cool down.
  3. Using a blender or a hand mixer combine the butter with the sweetener. Blend for about 10-15 seconds until the sugar substitute dissolves.
  4. In a bowl combine the dry ingredients: almond flour, xanthan gum, baking powder.
  5. Combine the dry ingredients with the butter mixture. Add the chocolate chips.
  6. Using your hands form 10-12 balls and place them on a tray lined with parchment paper.
  7. Bake for 10 minutes or until they are beautiful and golden.
  8. Let the keto chocolate chip cookies cookies cool down and serve.

How many carbs are in these keto cookies?

keto chocolate chip cookies recipe

I made 10 cookies out of the almond flour chocolate chip dough, so each one comes to only 3g net carbs. If you’re using an app to calculate the macros make sure you subtract both the fiber and sugar alcohol from the total carb content.
