2 Ingredient Keto Coconut Cookies
Super crispy crunchy coconut cookies that need just 2 ingredients and are low carb and keto-friendly.
Ingredients
- 1 cup (84 g) unsweetened shredded coconut
- 2 tbsp (30 ml) sugar-free honey substitute
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (177°C). Line a large cookie sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
- Add coconut and sugar free honey substitute to a medium mixing bowl. Mix with a spatula until evenly combined and all of the coconut is evenly coated in sweetener. Because of the sticky consistency of the honey, you may have the honey clumping on some of the coconut shreds. Do your best to break up the clumps so that the honey is evenly coated across all of the coconut.
- Using a 1 tbsp cookie scoop, pack 1 tbsp of shredded coconut mixture into your cookie scoop. Release onto your prepared baking sheet. Lightly wet the back of a metal spoon with water and then use it to press and shape the mixture until it becomes a round disk (between 3/16 and 1/4 inch thick). Repeat with remaining mixture, spacing each about 1 inch apart. The cookies don't spread during baking so you can keep them pretty close.
- Bake the cookies for about 9-10 minutes or until the edges are browned and the surface is golden brown. The more brown the surface gets, the crispier the cookie will be.
- Remove cookies from the oven but don't attempt to move them from the baking sheet until they are fully cooled and set. If you try to remove them while they are still warm, the cookies will fall apart. Once they are cooled, they will be fully set and you should be able to easily peel them from the cookie sheet.
Notes
- I used 365 Whole Foods unsweetened shredded coconut* and ChocZero sugar free honey*.

- Make sure to choose a sugar free honey substitute that has a similar thick sticky consistency like honey which will help bind the coconut shreds together. If you use a thin watery syrup then the syrup likely has been diluted with water which will prevent the coconut shreds from binding.
- The cookies are very crispy crunchy. Store uneaten cookies in an airtight container. If you leave them out, they will absorb moisture and it will make the cookies soft.
- If you are on a keto diet, please remember to look at net carbs and not just total carbs in the estimated nutrition. The net carbs count excludes fiber and sugar alcohols.
