Chocolate chip cookies

My favorite keto chocolate chip cookies 

Chocolate chip cookies (low carb)


INGREDIENTS


Instructions

  1. Add almond flour, coconut flour, konjac powder (or arrowroot/more coconut flour), salt, baking soda and xanthan gum to a medium bowl. Whisk until thoroughly combined and set aside.
  2. Cream butter in a large bowl with an electric mixer until softened, 1-2 minutes. Add in sweetener and carmel flavor and continue to cream until light and fluffy.
  3. Add egg, mixing until just incorporated. 
  4. With your mixer on low, add flour mixture.
  5. Fold in chocolate chips. 
  6. Preheat oven to 350°F and line a baking tray with parchment paper 
  7. Divide cookie dough into 18 rounds for 3 1/2-inch cookies (or 12 for jumbo style!), and flatten them slightly. The cookies will spread somewhat during baking, but you still need to pre-shape them slightly (i.e. the more you pre-flatten them the more they'll spread = crispier cookies, so if you like them cakier just don't flatten them too much!). 
  8. Place cookie dough on the prepared baking tray. Bake for 9-10 minutes for smaller cookies and 12-13 minutes for the jumbo. 
  9.  Allow the cookies to cool completely on the trays.
  10.  Store in an airtight container for three to four days.  

Recipe Notes


Note that the shaped dough can be frozen for up to 3 months, and they can be baked straight from the freezer (adding 2-3 minutes more to the baking time).
