Keto Chocolate Chip Cookies

Keto chocolate chip cookies are a fantastic way to satisfy your sweet tooth while following a low-carb ketogenic diet. Here's a simple recipe to make delicious keto-friendly chocolate chip cookies:

Ingredients:

• 1 1/2 cups almond flour

• 1/4 cup unsalted butter, softened

• 1/4 cup keto-friendly sweetener (such as erythritol or stevia)

• 1 large egg

• 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

• 1/2 teaspoon baking powder

• 1/4 teaspoon salt

• 1/3 cup sugar-free chocolate chips

Instructions:

• Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

• In a mixing bowl, combine the softened butter and keto-friendly sweetener. Beat them together until creamy and well mixed.

• Add the egg and vanilla extract to the butter mixture and continue to mix until fully incorporated.

• In a separate bowl, whisk together the almond flour, baking powder, and salt.

• Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until a cookie dough forms.

• Fold in the sugar-free chocolate chips. You can also chop up a sugar-free chocolate bar into small chunks if you prefer larger chocolate pieces.

• Use a spoon or cookie scoop to portion out the cookie dough onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between each cookie.

• Flatten each cookie slightly with the back of a fork or your fingers, as almond flour cookies don't spread much during baking.

• Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes or until the edges turn golden brown. Be careful not to overbake, as almond flour cookies can become dry if cooked too long.

• Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes. They will firm up as they cool.

• Transfer the cookies to a wire rack to cool completely.

• Once the cookies have cooled, enjoy your keto chocolate chip cookies with a glass of almond milk or your favorite low-carb beverage.

Feel free to adjust the sweetness to your taste by using more or less sweetener. You can also add chopped nuts or other keto-friendly mix-ins for variety. These cookies are a great way to satisfy your cookie cravings while staying within your ketogenic diet goals.
