Description

These delicious keto-friendly peanut butter cookies are low in carbs and packed with flavor. Perfect for those following a keto or low-carb diet, they’re quick to make and satisfying with every bite!


Ingredients

1 cup peanut butter (unsweetened, natural)

1/2 cup sweetener (erythritol, stevia, or your preferred keto-friendly sweetener)

1 large egg

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/2 teaspoon baking soda

Pinch of salt


Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine peanut butter, sweetener, egg, vanilla extract, baking soda, and salt. Stir until fully incorporated.
  3. Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of the dough and roll them into balls. Place them on the baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
  4. Use a fork to gently press down on each ball, creating a crisscross pattern.
  5. Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the cookies are golden around the edges.
  6. Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week.
  • If using erythritol, the cookies may have a slight cooling effect.
  • Ensure the peanut butter is unsweetened and natural for the best keto results.
  • Adjust the sweetness level to your preference if using different keto-friendly sweeteners.
