healthy almond flour cookies

Almond Flour Cookies

Traditional cookies are sugar bombs. I wanted a recipe that delivered on taste but skipped the blood-sugar spike. So instead of white sugar, I use a low-carb sweetener like erythritol or a monk fruit blend. It gives all the sweetness you want without adding net carbs.

Ingredients Method

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups superfine almond flour
  • 1/2 cup granulated erythritol (or monk fruit blend)
  • 1/3 cup melted butter (or coconut oil for dairy-free)
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tsp  vanilla extract
  • 1/2 tsp  baking soda
  • 1/4 tsp  salt
  • 1/2 cup  sugar-free chocolate chips (optional)

Method
 

  1. Grab a medium bowl and whisk together the almond flour, erythritol, baking soda, and salt.
  2. In a separate bowl, whisk the egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract. 
  3. Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients. Stir until you get a thick, cohesive dough.
  4. Use a small cookie scoop or tablespoon to portion the dough onto your prepared baking sheet. 
  5. Bake for 10–12 minutes. Watch carefully toward the end. They should be set around the edges but still soft in the center.
  6. Let them rest on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a cooling rack.
