Keto Oatmeal Cookies
Those oatmeal cookies out of the packs were the best! Cheap, crispy, iced and terrible for you in every way. Don’t get me started on the stuffed ones. To be able to get a taste of that on keto is a real treat. Having a great brown sugar alternative is key. I used Besti in this recipe but you can find Swerve in stores. The only thing about Swerve is that there is an aftertaste which is why I don’t use it. I will stick a tip below if you choose to go that route.

Is Oatmeal Keto

This is a complex question but in short no. So, you’ll ask how can I use them in the recipe? The answer is volume. Understand, keto is a metabolic state not an ingredient. At only 3g net carb these cookies still have oats in them. Now, they aren’t primary gluten free oats because that would be too much but we can make keto oatmeal cookies that do contain oats without going over our net carbs per day. In the recipe notes I will include options for if you still aren’t comfortable using them or having them in the house.

How To Make Keto Oatmeal Cookies

To start, melt butter and preheat oven.

In a bowl mix almond flour, coconut flour, gluten free oats, brown sugar sweetener, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt. These are your dry ingredients, set them to the side while you prepare your wet ingredients.

Next, get the melted butter and beat in eggs. Add in vanilla extract and liquid sweetener. Combine dry and wet ingredients together then cover and place in refrigerator for 10-15 minutes.

Remove from fridge and on a baking sheet with a cookie scoop, scoop cookies onto sheet. You should be able to get 17 cookies with this recipe.

For thicker cookies, don’t press them down. Leave them as is and they will puff up into thick little cookies.

For thin cookies, press down and they will be the size that you see in the photos. Be sure to spray oil on the spatula for easy release after you press them down.

Bake for 15 minutes for pressed down and add an extra 5 minutes for thicker cookies. Remove, allow them to cool then serve.

Helpful Recipe Tips

  • How do I replace gluten free oats, remove oats and swap with thin, sliced almond chopped up or use shredded coconut.
  • If using Swerve brown sugar, use half Swerve and half granulated sweetener. This will reduce the cooling effect but still give you the brown sugar taste. For best results use Besti!
  • Sub coconut flour, you can skip the coconut flour but it does help with texture. The cookie will be much crispier without it.
  • For thicker cookies, don’t press them down. Leave them as is and they will puff up into thick little cookies.
  • For thin cookies, press down and they will be the size that you see in the photos. Be sure to spray oil on the spatula for easy release after you press them down.
