Low Carb Coconut Cookies

I LOVE this recipe! This is a great combination of the coconut and almond-soft and chewy with great flavor. You won’t believe that there is no oil or sugar…AND added protein 🙂

Ingredients:

2 scoops (60g) vanilla grass fed whey, bone broth or collagen protein powder

6 tbsp coconut flour

4 Tbsp (1/4 cup) almond flour

1/4 cup Swerve erythritol sweetener

1 tsp baking powder

2 organic free range eggs

1 tsp organic pure vanilla extract

2 Tbsp unsweetened shredded coconut

Optional:

1/2 tsp Almond Extract and/or Coconut Extract

Chocolate chips, cacao nibs, slivered almonds etc.

Mix all dry ingredients first until blended. Then add in wet ingredients and mix thoroughly. The batter should be very thick. but not dry enough like a typical cookie dough. Feel free to let the batter chill in the fridge for a few minutes so it thickens up. Once it is the right consistency, stir in your optional mix ins.

Drop the cookie dough in small balls evenly onto a well spray cookie sheet. I usually make between 12 and 16 cookies from the batter.

Bake at 350F for about 10-12 minutes. Check them at 10 minutes…when they are done they should be brown around the edges and soft, but not doughy.

Try not to burn yourself when getting these cookies off the sheet and into your mouth! Hope you enjoy 🙂
