I love these cookies and they are a big hit with my friends and family too! I’ve made them a few times ever since I first saw this on YouTube! I love your recipes and this one is no exception! Thank you for sharing your wonderful recipes that has helped me lose over 85 lbs so far…!
I haven’t tried the recipe yet because I don’t understand the one carb count was 3/4 cup of peanuts in it. Is that for one cookie is supposed to be one carb? And how many cookies are you considering that recipe to make so I know about how large they are? Although I would like to add that I find the majority of recipes of yours that I have tried to be top notch!
Sorry, ignore earlier question, as. I see it’s 12 servings, so 12 cookies. Thank you.
Hello. Love your site!! Can you use unflavored gelatin tomake cookies chewy?
Yes, you can do that. There are other keto cookie recipes that use gelatin.
Hi, I was wondering would I be able to use avocado oil instead of butter and use an allulose blend of allulose, stevia and Monkfruit as my sweetener? Thank you.
I haven’t tried using avocado oil or coconut oil in place of the butter. It might work but they might need more nut flour too. As for the sweetener, you can use any sweetener as long as it measures cup for cup with sugar.
About how much peanut flour do you think can be subbed in for ground peanuts?
I’m not sure. I haven’t tried that substitution. Maybe try half and check to see how the consistency compares to my video. You could always bake a couple cookies, see how they turn out, then add more flour if needed.
Delicious! I tweeked it a bit because of a different recipe that crumbled apart so I wanted to make sure it wouldn’t do that again, so I added a Tablespoon of flaxseed meal, 1/4 teaspoon xanthum gum. Also added 1 tablespoon of cocoa powder (unsweetened) for flavor. I also used mostly Splenda and a bit of powdered stevia to sweeten mine. Delicious recipe. Some dough is freezing for future use, hopefully it will bake well. Thanks for the tasty recipe!
I eat these with sugar free whipped cream and a drizzle of sugar free chocolate syrup-really good. I think these would make a good pastry crust.
