Keto Chocolate Amaretti Cookies

Keto Chocolate Amaretti Cookies offer a low-carb twist on traditional amaretti with almond flour and cocoa powder. The cookies develop crackled tops and a tender texture from whipped egg whites folded into the chocolate almond dough. Lightly dusted with powdered sweetener, they deliver a cocoa and almond flavor without sugar.

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat the oven to 180C electric / 350F and line a cookie sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Sift the powdered sweetener to get rid of any lumps. Then, stir together the dry ingredients - almond flour, cocoa powder, sweetener, baking powder, pinch of salt.
  3. In a second bowl, beat the egg white to stiff peaks. Stir in the almond and vanilla extract.
  4. Fold in the dry ingredients with a spatula and mix until a smooth batter forms.
  5. Form a dough ball and quarter. Roll 2 dough balls from each quarter (mine weighed about 20g each) and place on the prepared cookie sheet, flattening them slightly.
  6. Bake for about 13-15 minutes until cracks are appearing on the tops.
  7. Let the cookies cool slightly, then dust with powdered sweetener.
