3 Ingredient Keto Cookies Recipe
Do you love sweets? Many people on keto miss cookies. This 3 Ingredient Keto Cookies Recipe is the answer.
Ingredients
- 1 cup creamy peanut butter no sugar.
- 1/2 cup granulated erythritol or monk fruit.
- 1 large egg at room temperature.
Instructions
Heat Your Oven
- First, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). A hot oven is very important. Line your tray with parchment paper.
Mix the Ingredients
- Put peanut butter into the bowl. Add your keto sweetener next. Finally, crack the egg inside. Use your spatula to stir well.
Blend Until Smooth
- Keep stirring the mixture. It will become a thick dough. Ensure the egg is fully mixed. There should be no dry sweetener left.
Scoop the Dough
- Take a small bit of dough. Roll it into a small ball. Use about one tablespoon per cookie. Place it on the baking sheet.
Flatten the Cookies
- Take a fork. Press down on each ball gently. Make a criss-cross pattern. This helps them bake evenly.
Bake the Cookies
- Slide the tray into the oven. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes. The edges should look slightly brown. Do not overbake them.
Let Them Cool
- Remove the tray from the oven. Let cookies sit for 10 minutes. They are soft when hot. They firm up as they cool.
Notes
- Use Room Temperature Eggs: They mix much better into the dough.
- Check Your Peanut Butter: Use only natural, drippy peanut butter. Avoid brands with added oils or sugar.
- Don't Move Too Soon: Let them cool completely. Otherwise, they might crumble in your hands.
- Add Sea Salt: Sprinkle a little salt on top. It makes the peanut butter taste better.
- Try Vanilla Extract: Add a drop of vanilla. It gives a deeper flavor profile.
- Watch the Timer: Every oven is different. Check them at the 8-minute mark.
- Store Them Right: Keep them in an airtight jar. They stay fresh for five days.
