The Best Keto-Friendly Ingredients for the Best Keto Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies

  • Creamy peanut butter
  • Flax egg
  • Low carb granulated sweetener – probably the most popular keto “sugar” there is, and for good reason. It’s sweet, perfectly granulated, and tastes so good I like to put it in my morning coffee. It’s low carb and keto-friendly.
  • Baking soda
  • Keto chocolate chips – the best keto chocolate chips I’ve had so far. They bake beautifully in today’s keto peanut butter and chocolate cookies and have a wonderful dark chocolate taste that perfectly offsets the sweet nuttiness of these keto peanut butter cookies.
  • Optional: vanilla extract, salt

How to Make Keto Peanut Butter and Chocolate Cookies

It’s high time to learn how to make the best ever keto peanut butter and chocolate cookies, don’t you think? Luckily, it’s a simple and easy thing, with just 5 ingredients and not too much time to prep.

Preheat

Before you bake a thing, make sure to preheat the oven first. You want your oven nice and evenly warm by the time you tuck in that first batch of cookies. Then, line a cookie sheet with parchment paper. 

Make the Dough

Add peanut butter, flax egg, low carb granulated sweetener, and baking soda to a medium bowl. You can even add in vanilla and salt, if you like (don’t worry, exact amounts are in the recipe card). Now, grab a rubber spatula and stir and fold everything together to create a cohesive peanut butter cookie dough. Fold in your favorite keto chocolate chips. You can even use keto white chocolate chips instead.

Scoop

Using a cookie scoop, scoop and drop balls of keto cookie dough onto the prepared baking sheet. Press keto chocolate chips into the tops of each cookie.

Bake, Cool and Enjoy

Bake, cool and enjoy the best keto peanut butter and chocolate cookies ever!!

Can I Make Substitutions?

Absolutely. Just, feel free to make some close substitutions to your keto peanut butter chocolate chip cookies. Here are some fairly safe ones:

  • Chocolate Chips: sub for these keto white chocolate chips, chopped nuts, dried fruit or your favorite add-ins
  • Peanut Butter: substitute with cashew butter! Sometimes, pecan butter and almond butter don’t play too well in these keto cookie recipes because they can tend to be a bit too oily. If the ratio of oil is just a bit too high and/or your kitchen is super hot, that can lead to spread-out, flat cookies. Just watch out for that. ๐Ÿ˜‰
  • Flax egg: you can probably use regular eggs, but I haven’t tried it myself, so keep that in mind. A chia egg will do just as well! And if you don’t know how, here’s how to make a flax egg.

Ingredients 

Keto Peanut Butter and Chocolate Cookies

Add-ins

Topping

Instructions 

  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or greased foil. Set aside.
  • In a medium bowl, add all ingredients. Using a rubber spatula, fold until very thoroughly mixed. Fold in keto chocolate chips.
  • Using a medium scoop, scoop and drop cookie dough balls onto the prepared baking sheet, spaced evenly apart.
  • Press Topping keto chocolate chips into the tops of each cookie. Using the bottom of a flat glass cup, press down on the top of each cookie a little less than ½ way until flat, but still thick. Cookies will spread a bit during baking, so leave some space between cookies and do not flatten cookies too much.
  • Bake for 12-16 minutes. Mine took 14 minutes. Transfer cookie sheet to cooling rack and allow to cool for 20 minutes—do not remove from sheet for 20 minutes, as cookies are a bit soft. Then, if desired, transfer cookies directly onto the cooling rack until completely cooled. Enjoy! Storing notes below.

    Yay! Youโ€™ve done it again. Iโ€™m trying to cut out some sugar. This recipe delivers and passes my crunch-factor requirement. The cookies were still crunchy days later. Thank you as always.

    1. Demeter | Beaming Baker says:

      Aw… you’re always so sweet, Theron. ๐Ÿ’– I’m so glad that you still got to satisfy that sweet tooth and meet your lower sugar requirements. Here’s to more crunch (always and forever!!)!! ๐Ÿ˜‰
