Ingredients:
- ½ cup Unsalted Butter, softened (113 g)
- ½ cup Keto Brown Sugar Substitute (100 g)
- ¼ cup Keto Granulated Sweetener (50 g)
- 2 Large Eggs, room temperature
- 1 teaspoon Pure Vanilla Extract
- 1 ½ cups Superfine Almond Flour (168 g)
- ¼ cup Coconut Flour (30 g)
- 1 teaspoon Xanthan Gum
- 1 teaspoon Baking Soda
- ½ teaspoon Fine Sea Salt
- ½ cup Unsweetened Shredded Coconut (40 g)
- ½ cup Chopped Pecans (or Walnuts) (50 g)
- ½ cup Sugar-Free Chocolate Chips (85 g)
Instructions:
- Preheat the oven to 175°C (350°F). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the almond flour, coconut flour, xanthan gum, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
- In the bowl of a stand mixer, cream the softened butter, keto brown sugar substitute, and keto granulated sweetener on medium speed until light and fluffy (about 3–4 minutes). Scrape down the bowl frequently.
- Beat in the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
- Reduce the mixer speed to low. Gradually add the prepared dry ingredients until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Remove the bowl from the mixer. Use a rubber spatula to fold in the shredded coconut, chopped pecans, and sugar-free chocolate chips until evenly distributed.
- Cover the bowl and refrigerate the dough for a minimum of 30 minutes. This is crucial to prevent spreading.
- Use a 2-tablespoon cookie scoop to form uniform balls of dough. Place them 5 cm (2 inches) apart on the prepared baking sheets and lightly flatten the tops of the dough balls with the back of a spoon.
- Bake for 12–14 minutes, rotating the trays halfway through. The edges should be lightly golden brown, but the centres should still look slightly soft.
- Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before carefully transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Store in an airtight container once fully cooled.
