Keto Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies
Description
This cookie mix blends all-natural peanut butter with tightly packed keto brown sugar, egg, vanilla extract, and baking soda to provide lift. The dough disperses keto-style chocolate chips, then baked at 350°F until just set in the middle, resulting in a chewy yet soft consistency. Cooling on the pan and storing in the refrigerator helps maintain their softness and structural integrity due to the absence of flour.
Use peanut butter with just peanuts and salt to avoid extra ingredients that could alter texture or flavor. The instructions caution about dough stickiness and recommend nonstick spray on the scoop to manage this. Overall, the cookies contain minimal ingredients fitting keto guidelines while providing a rich peanut butter flavor with chocolate accents.
Ingredients
- 1 cup peanut butter all natural creamy
- 1 cup brown sugar tightly packed, Keto style
- 1 egg
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 tsp baking soda
- ⅔ cup chocolate chips keto style
Instructions
- First, preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a baking pan with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, add peanut butter and brown sugar. Stir until completely combined.
- Then, add in egg, vanilla extract and baking soda. Stir to combine.
- Fold in chocolate chips.
- Use a cookie scoop to drop balls of dough onto lined baking pan.
- Bake for 9 to 10 minutes or until cookies are just set in the middle.
- Finally, remove from oven. Allow cookies to cool on pan for at least 5 minutes, or until they are cool enough to transfer to a cooling rack.
- Store cookies in fridge for best results since they are soft.
Notes
- Use all-natural creamy peanut butter containing only peanuts and salt for best texture.
- If dough sticks, spray cookie scoop with nonstick spray to ease handling.
- Bake until cookies are just set but still slightly gooey; they firm up once cooled.
- Store cookies in the refrigerator to keep their soft texture.
