Can I Eat Cookies on Keto?
Sure you can! With a few substitutions that is. By substituting traditional flour for gluten-free flour and using a low carb sugar substitute you can enjoy many of your favorite cookies with little to no difference in taste or texture but with a HUGE difference in carbs.
Here are a few tips and substitutions that will make all your homemade gluten free cookies no-fail every time:
Which Gluten Free Flour is Best for Cookies?
You'll notice one common ingredient in most Keto cookie recipes is almond flour. That's because it contains only one ingredient, ALMONDS! And since almonds are full of healthy fat, that makes cookies made with almond flour a great Keto sweet treat.
When you mix almond flour with another gluten free ingredient, like oat fiber or coconut flour, you can achieve the same wonderful texture of traditional cookies without all the carbs.
What Keto Sweetener is Best for Cookies
Swerve and Allulose are two of the top recommended and widely used sugar substitutes in Keto baking, That's because they have baking properties and taste so much like sugar.
Do I need Special Equipment to Make Homemade Keto Cookies?
You only need a few regular kitchen essentials used for most baking. It's good to have these things on hand because you'll find many uses for them other than just cookies:
Sheet Pan- baking cookies almost always starts with a good sheet pan
Silpat- though not required, a Silpat helps ensure your cookies do not stick to the sheet pan
Cookie Scoop- evenly baked cookies are easily achieved when you use a cookie scoop to portion out the dough
Measuring Cups- let's face it, all kitchens need a set of measuring cups. Baking is a little bit like science, precise ingredients create best results.
