Sugar Free Cookie Recipes For Keto, Diabetics, and More!
1. Ultimate Keto Chocolate Chip Cookies
Let’s start with the very first thing that comes to mind when we hear the word cookies: chocolate chip. These chocolate chip cookies are crisp around the edges, chewy in the middle, and exploding with decadent chocolate chunks. They’re not just ridiculously delicious, but keto-friendly as well! The secret? Almond flour and granulated sweetener. Here’s the best part: they’re as easy to make as any chocolate chip cookie. There’s no extra effort involved just because they’re sugar-free.
2. Oatmeal Raisin Cookies
They may not have as many supporters as the more beloved chocolate chip. But to all you, fellow oatmeal raisin cookie lovers, this one’s for you. These cookies are soft, chewy, and loaded with sweet raisins in every bite. I love how the oatmeal provides such a unique creaminess that you can’t get from anywhere else. Kissed in cinnamon, these cookies are a perfect source of warmth and comfort. If you’re looking to convert a hater, this is the recipe to arm yourself with.
3. Keto Peanut Butter Cookies
These peanut butter cookies call for only three ingredients, yet they’re unbelievably addictive. It’s that sweet and salty flavor profile that does the trick. It’s amazing what a combination of peanut butter, low-carb sweetener, and eggs can do! With this recipe, all you’ll need is one bowl and 20 minutes. You won’t need to chill the dough beforehand, either. They’re also low-carb, gluten-free, and paleo-friendly. And if you use an egg substitute, they can even be vegan.
4. Chocolate Cookies
Soft, chewy, and chocolatey: to me, these are the three things that describe a perfect cookie. And these are exactly what these chocolate cookies are. They satisfy the tastebuds and soothe the heart and soul. The fact that they’re sugar-free, low-carb, and keto-friendly is just a bonus. Oh, and they come together in a snap, too. It’s so embarrassingly easy, all you’ll need is a bowl and a fork.
5. Coconut Flour Cookies
Coconut plus chocolates = cookie paradise. This flavor combination deserves more attention than it’s currently getting. How can anyone not fall in love with the mash-up of decadent chocolate chips and sweet and nutty coconut? These cookies are outrageously soft, chewy, and studded with melt-in-your-mouth chocolate chunks in every bite. Think chewy chocolate chip cookies meet chewy coconut macaroons. Doesn’t that sound amazing? I’m already drooling just imagining it.
6. Coconut Flour Cookies with Peanut Butter and Chocolate
These are a lot similar to the previous recipe, only made more extra with peanut butter. So just to recap – these cookies have sweet and nutty coconut flour at their base, flavored with peanut butter, and packed with lots of chocolate chips. They’re super soft, pillowy, and downright delicious. If this is what the keto diet looks like, I might just get on board.
7. Keto Snickerdoodle Cookies
Snickerdoodles are fantastic, but I know what you’re thinking: how can a snickerdoodle be sugar-free? Let me introduce you to a sweetener called Erythritol. It’s an organic, naturally occurring compound made from corn. It’s about 60-70% as sweet as table sugar, but it has almost zero calories and doesn’t spike up your blood sugar levels. Awesome, am I right? That’s how these snickerdoodle cookies still get that iconic flavor and texture, all the while being sugar-free.
8. Cinnamon Sugar Almond Flour Cookies
These almond flour cookies are soft, crispy, and chewy all at the same time. That’s what I call an epic textural variety! These cookies definitely can’t be faulted for being one-note. The flavor is also very much on point. With a perfect blend of sugar and spice, they really are nothing but nice. We have the combination of coconut sugar and cinnamon to thank.
9. Gluten-Free & Keto Oreo Cookies
One look and you can already tell how freakin’ decadent these cookie sandwiches are. These Oreo copycats are simply irresistible. Crisp and crunchy dark chocolate cookies are filled with delectable vanilla cream. The best part? As sinful as they may look, these cookies are actually sugar-free and gluten-free, and with just 1 gram of carb a piece. How can something this good be so healthy? This is what I call cookie perfection. The only thing missing is a glass of milk.
10. Sugar-Free “Sugar” Cookies
These sugar cookies are insanely soft and buttery, they melt in your mouth. If you’re looking for a homemade Christmas gift to give to your friends, look no further. These holiday cookies are not just lip-smackingly delicious, but super adorable as well. All it takes is to shape the dough with your favorite cookie cutters. They’re cute as they are, but you can dress them up with sugar-free glaze to make them more festive.
11. Keto Lemon Cookies
They’re thick and soft, sweet and lemony, and just absolutely amazing. You’ll love the combination of citrus and sugar in these cookies. The contrast between sweet and tangy creates such playful flavors. The butter makes them even richer and more tender. They’re perfect on their own, but a drizzling of icing takes them to the next level. They’re so addictive, it’s hard to believe they’re sugar-free and keto-friendly.
12. Keto Chocolate Crinkle Cookies
Sink your teeth into the goodness of these chocolate crinkles. I am such a sucker for these goodies. These festive treats look gorgeous. The taste and texture? Phenomenal. They’re sweet and chocolatey as can be. They’re super soft and chewy, and the way the powdered sugar melts in your mouth is divine. Seriously, these cookies are my Kryptonite. I can’t help myself whenever they’re around. Good thing they’re both low-carb and sugar-free!
13. Low-Carb Almond Crescent Cookies (Gluten-Free)
This version of the Italian almond crescent cookies is just as delectable, but not as sinful. They’re just as crispy on the outside and tender and chewy on the inside. They’re made with almond flour, flavored with almond extract, and studded with slivered almonds on top. Expect the almond goodness to really shine through. They seem super complicated to make, but they come together in just 30 minutes. You really can’t ask for more!
14. Easy Keto Pistachio Shortbread Cookies
Crispy, soft, and buttery shortbread cookies are peppered with toasted pistachios to create the perfect bite. Besides the crunch and flavor, I also love how the nuts lend a mild green hue to the cookies. Their vibrant color makes them extra ideal for the holidays. Pair this with your favorite coffee or tea for a satisfying morning or afternoon snack.
15. Keto Cream Cheese Almond Cookies
Anything with cream cheese on it is already a certified hit in my book. These cookies are proof. If you’ve never had the combination of cream cheese and almonds, this is the perfect opportunity for you. These cookies are crazy delicious! The cookies are wonderfully soft. The cream cheese makes them oh, so rich and creamy, too. Plus, you’ll also love how the crunch from the chopped almonds gives them a lovely textural variety. Click on a star to rate it!
