Keto Edible Cookie Dough
Description
The cookie dough combines finely ground almond flour with softened or melted coconut butter and a liquid sweetener such as a maple-flavored stevia syrup to create a pliable base. Vanilla extract and ground cinnamon can be added for aroma and warmth. Dark chocolate chips or chunks provide texture and bursts of sweetness, while a pinch of sea salt balances the flavors.
This preparation requires no baking, making it a convenient snack. Stirring the ingredients together yields a dough that can be eaten immediately or chilled to firm before shaping. The texture is soft but holds shape if refrigerated. The use of keto-friendly ingredients keeps the carbohydrate content low.
The dough stores best in an airtight container in the refrigerator to maintain freshness. Variations in sweetener or chocolate type may adjust sweetness and consistency, allowing customization.
Ingredients
- 1 cup almond flour finely ground
- 3 Tbsp coconut butter softened or melted
- 3 Tbsp maple syrup liquid sweetener, see notes, sugar-free, maple-sweetened
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract optional, pure
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon optional
- 1/4 cup dark chocolate chips see notes, or chunks
- 1 pinch salt sea salt
Instructions
- Add all ingredients to a small bowl and stir until combined. Taste edible cookie dough for flavor and add more sweetener to taste.
- Note: If rolling dough into bite-sized balls, it's easiest to refrigerate the dough for 1 hour before rolling, but this is not mandatory.
- Store in the refrigerator in an air-tight container.
Notes
- Use a liquid sweetener like stevia-sweetened maple-flavored syrup or a monk fruit sweetener for best keto results.
- If using granulated sweetener, increase the coconut butter to 6 tablespoons and use 3 tablespoons of the sweetener for proper consistency.
- Chill the dough for at least 1 hour before rolling into balls to make shaping easier, though this step is optional.
- Store the cookie dough in an airtight container in the refrigerator for freshness.
- Choose stevia-sweetened or sugar-free chocolate chips to maintain low carbohydrate content.
