These chewy keto chocolate chip cookies made with almond flour are soft, flavorful, and perfect for low-carb diets. They deliver indulgent chocolatey goodness without the carb overload.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 ¾ cups (175g) almond flour
  • ⅓ cup (65g) erythritol
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ¼ teaspoon xanthan gum (optional but recommended)
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 6 tablespoons (85g) unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 large egg, room temperature
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • ¾ cup (135g) sugar-free chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat to prevent sticking.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the almond flour, erythritol, baking soda, xanthan gum, and salt until fully combined.
  3. In a separate bowl, beat the softened butter with an electric mixer or whisk vigorously until smooth and creamy, about 1-2 minutes.
  4. Beat the egg and vanilla extract into the butter until just combined.
  5. Slowly add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture. Stir gently with a spatula until you have a thick, sticky dough. Avoid overmixing.
  6. Gently fold in the sugar-free chocolate chips until evenly distributed.
  7. Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop dough onto the prepared baking sheet about 2 inches apart, making around 15 cookies.
  8. Bake for 10-12 minutes until edges are golden but centers still look soft. Do not overbake.
  9. Let the cookies rest on the baking sheet for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

Do not skip xanthan gum for chewiness. Soften butter but do not melt it. Avoid overmixing dough to prevent dry, crumbly cookies. Cookies firm up as they cool, so remove from oven when edges turn golden. Chill dough for 15 minutes if cookies spread too much. Add extra butter or egg yolk if cookies are too dry. Use quality sugar-free chocolate chips like Lily’s for best flavor. Dough can be refrigerated up to 24 hours before baking. Cookies freeze well up to 3 months.
