Notes

Ingredients Links For Keto Coconut Almond Cookies

  • Almond Flour - This is the base for our cookies. It provides the best flavour.
  • Coconut Flour - Coconut flour helps to improve the texture of the cookies by 
  • Unsweetened Shredded Coconut - You can use shredded, flaked or desiccated if you prefer.
  • Sliced Almonds - These add a nice crunch to the cookies. Feel free to use flaked coconut pieces instead if you prefer an all-coconut cookie. 
  • Vanilla Extract - Both pure and artificial work just fine.
  • Almond or Coconut Extract - You can use either. I used almond extract in mine.
  • Sukrin Gold Sweetener - This is my favourite brown sugar substitute. Swerve brown works as well.
  • Powdered Monkfruit Sweetener - This is my go-to sweetener for almost any keto dessert. It blends seamlessly into desserts.
  • Xanthan Gum - Helps provide some chewiness to the cookies.

Tips For Making Keto Coconut Almond Cookies

  • These may not seem done when they first come out of the oven, be sure to let them cool fully as they WILL firm up. 
  • These cookies are also tasty with chopped pecans or sugar free mini chocolate chips added.
  • If you want thicker cookies, just barely flatten the tops of the cookies before baking. For thinner, crispier cookies, flatten them before baking (as seen in the photos/video).
