These cookies are incredibly easy to make, and with most people following a ketogenic diet or those eating a gluten-free dairy-free lifestyle, you probably have all the ingredients ready in your kitchen.

I’m always looking for ways to use coconut flour in recipes. It makes eating low carb foods so much easier than using regular flour.

It takes less than 30 minutes to prepare some warm, healthy cookies ready for family, friends, and especially the kids.

We have another healthy flourless almond butter cookie recipe that you can also check out.

After lunch or dinner, the cookies are either a great dessert if craving a keto-friendly treat, breakfast with a cup of bulletproof coffee to start the day, or simply any time of day if you have a sweet tooth.

These cookies contain 8.5g fat, 3.5g protein, and 3.5g net carbs per serving.

So make a batch, share with friends and family and show them how easy and effortless it is to lower carbs and increase healthy fat intake with a low carb lifestyle.

So today, we share with you another way to make quick and straightforward high-fat cookies using almond butter and coconut flour.

How To Make Low Carb Gluten-Free Almond Butter Coconut Flour Cookies

It’s so easy to make these cookie treats. You need only a handful of essential kitchen ingredients.

Before preparation of the cookies preheat oven to 175 Celsius / 350 Fahrenheit. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper if not using a baking mat.

Heat the coconut oil in the microwave for 30 seconds or until melted.

In a food mixer or large mixing bowl, add the melted coconut oil almond butter, erythritol, and eggs and whisk together until blended.

Sift in the coconut flour, Himalayan pink salt, and baking powder, then mix with a wooden spoon or food mixer until you have cookie dough.

Refrigerate the cookie dough for about 30 minutes before scooping out.

Roll into balls with your hands, then press down on your baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

With the ingredients listed, I was able to make 12 balls.

Place the rolled balls of cookie dough on the baking sheet and leave a few inches of space between each ball.

My cookies were about 1 cm high and had a diameter of 5 cm.

Bake the cookies for 15 minutes or until the edges begin to brown.

Let the Almond Butter and Coconut Flour Cookies cool on a wire rack before consuming. Store in an airtight container to keep fresh.

If you refrigerate the cookie dough before baking, it will solidify the coconut oil fat and help to prevent the cookies from spreading while cooking.

Almond butter is arguably preferred to peanut butter on a keto diet due to its slightly better nutrition profile. It’s a delicious alternative for those with peanut allergies, but feel free to substitute almond butter for another variety such as peanut or cashew butter.

You could also replace the coconut oil with butter to give more texture and flavor. The recipe, however, will no longer be dairy-free.
