How to Make Keto Magic Cookies

PIN IT

Step 1 — Preheat Oven

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2 — Mix Dry Ingredients

In a large bowl, combine almond flour, shredded coconut, almonds, flaxseed meal, baking powder, and a pinch of salt.

Step 3 — Add Wet Ingredients

Pour in melted butter, keto condensed milk (or cream + sweetener), egg, and vanilla extract. Mix until you get a thick, sticky dough.

Step 4 — Fold in Chocolate Chips

Add sugar-free chocolate chips and fold gently.

Step 5 — Scoop Cookies

Scoop dough into 1.5–2 tablespoon portions. Press lightly to flatten. Add extra chopped almonds on top for crunch.

Step 6 — Bake

Bake for 10–12 minutes, until edges are golden. Centers will still be soft — they firm up as they cool.

Step 7 — Cool

Let cookies cool on the sheet for 10 minutes before transferring. This helps them set properly.

Serving Suggestions

• Enjoy with keto hot chocolate
• Serve with almond milk for a cozy treat
• Crumble over Greek yogurt for a breakfast twist

Tips for Making It Perfect

• Don’t overbake — keto cookies dry quickly
• Use finely shredded coconut for better texture
• Let them cool fully before storing
• Add walnuts, pecans, or hazelnuts for variety
• Swap almond flour for 1:1 pecan flour for extra richness

Storage Instructions

• Room Temp: 3–4 days in an airtight container
• Refrigerator: Up to 1 week
• Freezer: Freeze up to 3 months
