The Perfect Low Carb Variation!
Here’s a keto quick recipe that’s a variation on our basic Peanut Butter Cookies recipe. We’ve gotten a lot of comments and feedback and were able to create an even better cookie recipe!
As with most peanut butter cookies, this recipe is flourless and quite simple. If you’ve run out of almond flour and are looking for something delicious to satisfy your sweet tooth, look no further! You can go the route of our basic peanut butter cookies, or you can add in some of the ingredients we’ve included to help perfect the consistency and flavor of this recipe.
The 3 ingredients that are essential are peanut butter, eggs and erythritol. You can add in pretty much any mix-ins you like! Some of our readers say chocolate chips are awesome in these… but we decided on cinnamon coconut for our variation. The cinnamon adds a beautiful, spicy flavor to the cookies, while the coconut adds texture. The combination really is perfect.

Don’t forget to sprinkle some shredded coconut on top of each cookie to give them an extra dose of toastiness. The oven will brown the coconut slightly and add to the amazing flavor of these cookies!
