Description

Soft, buttery, and filled with sugar-free chocolate chips, these Keto Chocolate Chip Cookies taste just like the classic version but with only 2g net carbs per cookie. They’re chewy, rich, and the perfect guilt-free indulgence for anyone following a low-carb or keto lifestyle.


Ingredients

2 cups (200g) almond flour (finely ground, blanched)

3/4 cup (136.5g) Swerve Brown

1/2 tsp baking soda

1/4 tsp salt

1 large egg, room temperature

1/2 cup (113.5g) butter, melted and cooled slightly

1/2 tsp pure vanilla extract

1/2 cup (90g) sugar-free chocolate chips, divided

1/4 cup (29.25g) chopped walnuts (optional)


Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together almond flour, Swerve Brown, baking soda, and salt.
  3. Add the egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Mix until a soft dough forms.
  4. Fold in 3/4 of the chocolate chips and walnuts if using.
  5. Scoop about 2 tablespoons of dough per cookie (18 portions) onto the baking sheets, spacing them 2 inches apart.
  6. Press the remaining chocolate chips on top of each cookie.
  7. Bake for 12–15 minutes, rotating the sheets halfway through, until the edges are golden but centers look slightly soft.
  8. Cool on the baking sheet for 10 minutes before transferring to a rack to cool completely.

Notes

Chill dough for 30 minutes before baking for thicker cookies.

Use sugar-free chocolate chips made with erythritol or stevia for best keto results.

For a double chocolate version, replace 2 tbsp almond flour with cocoa powder.

Add cinnamon or nutmeg for a warm, spiced variation.

Store cookies in an airtight container for up to 5 days or freeze for up to 2 months.
