Diabetic-Friendly Chocolate Chip Cookies
Low-Carb • Sugar-Free • Chewy & Gooey
📝 Ingredients (Makes 12–14 cookies)
Dry Ingredients
- 1 ½ cups almond flour
- 2 tbsp coconut flour
- ½ tsp baking soda
- ¼ tsp salt
Wet Ingredients
- ½ cup softened butter
- ½ cup Brown Allulose or Brown Monk Fruit
- (Brown-style sweeteners give that caramel flavor)
- 1 large egg
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
Mix-ins
- ½ cup sugar-free chocolate chips or chunks
(Lily’s, ChocZero, Bake Believe, etc.)
👩🍳 Instructions
1️⃣ Cream Butter + Sweetener
Beat softened butter and brown sweetener until light and fluffy.
2️⃣ Add Egg + Vanilla
Mix until smooth.
3️⃣ Add Dry Ingredients
Stir in:
- Almond flour
- Coconut flour
- Baking soda
- Salt
Mix just until a dough forms.
4️⃣ Fold in Chocolate
Gently mix in chips/chunks.
Tip: reserve a few to press on top before baking for that melted look.
5️⃣ Chill
Refrigerate dough 20–30 minutes so cookies don’t spread too much.
6️⃣ Bake
- Preheat oven: 350°F (175°C)
- Scoop dough onto parchment-lined sheet
- Bake 10–12 minutes or until golden at the edges
Let cool 10 minutes before lifting — almond flour cookies are fragile while warm!

💡 Tips for PERFECT Cookies
- Use chunks instead of chips for gooey pools of chocolate like the photo.
- For extra chewiness: add 1 tsp gelatin powder to the dough.
- For crispier edges: flatten cookies slightly before baking.
- For thicker, bakery-style cookies: chill dough 1 hour.
