Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

2 cups almond flour
1/2 cup granulated erythritol (or your preferred sugar substitute)
1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder (optional, for chocolate flavor)
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt

Wet Ingredients

1/4 cup coconut oil, melted
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Optional Add-ins

1/2 cup sugar-free chocolate chips (optional)
1/4 cup chopped nuts (optional)

Instructions

Preheat Your Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, erythritol, cocoa powder if using, baking soda, and salt. Stir thoroughly to evenly distribute all the dry ingredients.
Whisk Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the melted coconut oil, eggs, and vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth and uniform.
Combine Mixtures: Slowly add the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients bowl. Stir gently until a dough forms with no dry patches.
Add Optional Ingredients: Fold in the sugar-free chocolate chips and chopped nuts if using, ensuring they are evenly spread throughout the dough.
Scoop Dough: Use a cookie scoop or spoon to drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart to allow room for spreading.
Bake: Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake for 15-20 minutes. The cookies should be slightly golden around the edges and firm when touched.
Cool Down: Remove the cookies from the oven and let them rest on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes to set before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Enjoy: Once fully cooled, serve and enjoy your freshly baked Magic Keto Cookies!

Notes

You can omit the cocoa powder and chocolate chips for a classic almond-flavored cookie.
Substitute coconut oil with butter if preferred, but this will change the flavor and nutritional profile slightly.
Make sure eggs are at room temperature for better mixing.
Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days or freeze for longer storage.
