3-Ingredient Keto Cookies (So Easy!) - Quick, Tasty, and Low-Carb

Servings: 12 servings

Ingredients
  

  • Almond butter: Smooth, unsweetened almond butter works best. Stir well if it’s natural and separated.
  • Granulated keto sweetener: Use an erythritol- or allulose-based blend that measures like sugar. Choose one you enjoy, since flavor can vary by brand.
  • Egg: One large egg binds everything and gives structure.

Method
 

  1. Preheat the oven: Set it to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat.
  2. Mix the dough: In a bowl, combine 1 cup smooth, unsweetened almond butter, 1/2 cup granulated keto sweetener, and 1 large egg. Stir with a spatula until thick and uniform. If using, add 1/2 teaspoon vanilla and a pinch of salt.
  3. Shape the cookies: Scoop about 1 tablespoon of dough per cookie. Roll into balls and place them 2 inches apart on the sheet. Gently press the tops with a fork in a crisscross pattern to flatten to about 1/2 inch thick.
  4. Bake: Bake for 8–10 minutes, or until the edges are set and just turning golden. The centers will look slightly soft—this is good.
  5. Cool completely: Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 10 minutes, then transfer to a rack. They firm up as they cool.
  6. Enjoy: Serve once cooled, or chill for a firmer, chewier bite.
