2 Ingredient Crunchy Almond Cookies (Keto, Low Carb)
These cookies come out crunchy and sweet and full of almond flavor. They are just 2 ingredients and so easy to make!
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup (122 g) natural almond butter
- 4 tbsp (36 g) powdered erythritol
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or silicone baking mat.
- In a medium bowl, combine ingredients. Stir with a spatula until the erythritol is completely incorporated into the almond butter. The almond butter should also thicken as the erythritol gets incorporated. The dough will be stickier and wetter than your typical cookie dough.
- Use a 2 tsp cookie scoop to scoop out dough and release onto prepared baking sheet. Use your fingertips to smooth out surface. Apply light pressure to the cookie dough balls so they become dome-shaped (they will spread out more during baking but they don't spread a lot.)
- Let cookies bake for about 11-12 minutes or until surface of cookies are firm and edges are a darker shade of brown. Let cookies cool on cookie sheet to fully set before removing.
Notes
- Make sure to use natural almond butter (only almonds in the ingredient list).
- This recipe needs powdered erythritol to work. It will not work with granular erythritol. See post for more details. I believe it will also work with powdered Swerve. I have not tested it with powdered Lakanto.
- I used a 2 tsp cookie scoop for these cookies because of how rich the almond butter is. You can use a bigger cookie scoop but you will need to increase baking time. If you don't own a cookie scoop, you can measure the dough with a measuring spoon and use another spoon to help release the dough.
- I used So Nourished powdered erythritol*
