Indulge in the rich, creamy taste of white chocolate and the satisfying crunch of macadamia nuts with these Keto White Chocolate Macadamia Nut Cookies. Perfect for satisfying your sweet tooth without the guilt!
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat and set aside.
In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the almond flour, baking powder, and salt.
In a separate large bowl, use an electric mixer to cream the softened butter and erythritol together until light and fluffy, which should take about 2-3 minutes.
Beat in the egg and vanilla extract to the butter mixture until fully incorporated.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until a dough forms.
Gently fold in the keto-friendly white chocolate chips and chopped macadamia nuts until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Use a cookie scoop or spoon to portion the dough into 12 equal-sized balls, placing them on the prepared baking sheet.
Flatten each ball slightly with the palm of your hand or the back of a spoon.
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges start to turn golden brown.
Remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
You can use any keto-friendly sweetener you prefer. Just be sure it measures like sugar and is granulated for the best texture.If you can’t find keto-friendly white chocolate chips, you can make your own by melting cocoa butter with a sweetener and vanilla, then letting it set.These cookies can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week, or frozen for up to 3 months.If you have a nut allergy, you can substitute the almond flour with sunflower seed flour or another nut-free alternative. Adjustments to the recipe may be needed, so experiment to get the right texture.For a softer cookie, bake for the lesser time. For a crispier edge, add an additional 1-2 minutes to the baking time.
