Ingredients
3/4 cup Almond flour
1/4 cup Coconut flour
1/2 tsp Salt
1 tsp Baking powder
1/2 cup unsalted butter (soft/room temp)
1/2 cup Lakanto Powdered Monkfruit sweetener
2 Tbsp Lakanto Maple Flavored Syrup
1 tsp Vanilla Extract
1 large Egg
1/2 Lily’s Chocolate Chips (stevia)
1/4 cup chopped pecan
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees
- Combine almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, salt. Set aside.
- In a separate bowl, beat butter, Monkfruit powder, Monkfruit maple, egg, vanilla until well combined.
- Add flour mixture slowly into the butter using a wooden spoon.
- Add chocolate chips & pecans.
- Use small scoop on parchment leaving at least an inch between each cookie. Note: they will remain mound shaped after baking. Press gently for disc shaped cookies
- Bake for 8 min. Rotate the tray bake for another 3 minutes or until bottoms/edges are golden brown.
- Allow cookies to cook on a cooking rack.
Notes
Erythritol and Monkfruit are both keto approved sweeteners. I have also made this recipe successfully with other sugar substitutes including:
- Swerve,
- Sukrin Gold,
- Classic Lakanto Granulated
- Golden Lakanto Granulate
Pro Tip: Classic cookie recipes (Toll House Recipe) call for both white and brown sugar. For this reason I recommend a 50/50 blend of white and brown sugar substitute.
Examples:
Use 1/2 a cup of your favorite granulated sweetener or blend:
- 1/4 Cup Swerve or Erythritol/Stevia
- 1/4 Cup Sukrin Gold (brown sugar substitute)
For a total of 1/2 cup sweetener.
Sukrin Gold is a brown sugar substitute that will give the cookies a more golden finish. If you use purely white sugar substitute your cookies will be a bit more pale.
In the case of this particular recipe we were out of Sukrin and opted to use Lakanto Maple Syrup which definitely added a richer flavor to the cookies. However the color was not as brown on top as when we use Sukrin Gold. Still the cookies were delicious and devoured!
