Keto Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough
Is there anything better than cookie dough? We love cookie dough bites, cookie dough bars, and this keto edible cookie dough.
Whenever I make cookies, I always have to fight off the temptation to dig into a bowl of the raw cookie dough.
Growing up, I’d always stand around the kitchen when mum was making cookies, hoping to sneak a bite or two of the cookie dough batter. Even though she lamented to me multiple times the dangers of it, I could never resist!
Ever since going keto, I’ve been craving a big bowl of raw cookie dough. Before keto, I’d often make vegan cookie dough but I needed to make a low carb version.
This low carb cookie dough fits the bill. It’s made with grain free flours and sugar free syrup, and produces a smooth, creamy and addictive cookie dough. It’s sweet, rich, and studded with sugar free chocolate chips.
How to make keto cookie dough
The Ingredients
Almond flour– I prefer using blanched almond flour over the almond meal or traditional almond flour, as the skins of the almonds are removed prior to becoming a flour state. It also has a lighter texture, instead of gritty.
Coconut flour– Adds a little extra thickness. Do not omit this, unless you increase the almond flour.
Granulated Sweetener– Either monk fruit sweetener or erythritol can be used.
Sugar Free Maple Syrup– Monk fruit sweetened maple syrup, that has a lovely sweet flavor, without being overpowering. Do not use sugar free pancake syrup, as that will not hold the cookie dough together.
Coconut oil– Adds a buttery texture to the cookie dough! You want your coconut oil to be soft, not melted.
Sugar Free Chocolate Chips– A must for any good cookie dough recipe! You can also use a chopped up sugar free chocolate bar.
The Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, add your almond flour, coconut flour, and granulated sweetener and mix well. Add your keto maple syrup and coconut oil and mix well, until a thick cookie dough is formed. Gently fold through the chocolate chips and enjoy immediately, or refrigerate it for 30 minutes, to thicken.
Do not melt your coconut oil completely, otherwise, it will leave the cookie dough oily and greasy. It will also melt the chocolate chips. You want it to be soft- the same texture as room temperature butter.
Feel free to mix through any nuts or seeds into your cookie dough, for some added texture. I love adding some coconut flakes to it.
If your coconut flour and/or almond flour has some clumps, sift them first.
Instead of keto chocolate chips, chop up a keto chocolate bar instead.

Ingredients
1/2cupblanched almond flour
2tablespooncoconut flour
2tablespoongranulated sweetener of choice* See notes
1-2tablespoonchocolate chips of choiceI used stevia sweetened chocolate chips
Instructions
In a small mixing bowl, combine your blanched almond flour, coconut flour and granulated sweetener of choice. Mix well.
Add your sticky sweetener of choice and coconut oil and mix very well, until fully combined. The mixture should resemble a creamy cookie dough. Stir through chocolate chips. If it is too crumbly, add either some extra sticky sweetener or a few drops of liquid (milk works great).
Either enjoy immediately or for a thicker, dense cookie dough, refrigerate for 30 minutes.
Notes
* I used a granulated monk fruit sweetener. Adjust this to taste- You can reduce the amount or omit altogether.
** I used a monk fruit sweetened maple syrup to keep it keto-friendly and 100% sugar free. Refined sugar free alternatives include light agave nectar and pure maple syrup.
Edible Low Carb Keto Cookie Dough can keep for up to a week, refrigerated.
We do not recommend baking our Bite-Sized Edible Cookie Dough [flavor/products]. It does not contain eggs or leavening agents, which are key ingredients in developing texture and lift in baked cookies. (If needed) Exposure to high oven temperatures will cause the product to liquefy and possibly burn.
Cookie dough is an uncooked blend of cookie ingredients. While cookie dough is normally intended to be baked into individual cookies before eating, edible cookie dough is made to be eaten as is, and usually is made without eggs to make it safer for human consumption.
Most cookie dough contains raw eggs, which may be contaminated with Salmonella bacteria.These bacteria cause fever, diarrhea, and vomiting, which can last for up to 1 week.
The consumption of raw flour or raw batter does have serious consequences from pathogens, such as salmonella and pathogenic e.coli, which can range from having symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea to death.
When you think cookies, you likely think of sweet ingredients, but salt is essential. It balances the flavor of caramelized sugars. We even love sprinkling a little extra flake salt on our cookies to awaken the tongue and complement the sweetness.
I mixed the batter more than I should have both during the creaming stage of the recipe and after adding the flour. As a result, the cookies came out light and airy, and I was able to taste the butter more prominently in this batch than in others.
Not all cookie dough is safe to eat before baking it. Both the flour and the egg ingredients should be cooked for food safety reasons. What makes Pillsbury's refrigerated cookie and brownie doughs ready to eat raw? We use heat treated flour and pasteurized eggs so you can now safely enjoy our cookie dough baked or raw.
When & Why Do You Need to Heat Treat Flour? Raw flour can contain bacteria like e.coli or salmonella so it's important to always heat your flour to a temperature of 160F before eating. (This is what makes eating edible cookie dough safe!)
Net carbs are calculated by taking the total grams of carbohydrate in a food and subtracting the amount of fiber. In this case, popcorn contains 6 grams of carbs per 1 cup serving and 1.2 grams of fiber, bringing the net carbs per serving to 4.8 grams. Yes friends, popcorn is indeed a keto food.
(Just remember: Cheese isn't “unlimited” in a keto diet, as it still contains calories and carbs; it's also high in saturated fat, which is a less heart-healthy option than unsaturated fats, per the American Heart Association.)
If you're looking for cream cheeses that you can add to your keto diet without compromising your daily macros, nutritionists swear by the following brands: Philadelphia Cream Cheese (Plain, Full-Fat) Di Stefano Premium Mascarpone Cheese. Trader Joe's Mascarpone.

You might think that because vegan cookie dough doesn't contain eggs, you're not at risk of contracting a foodborne illness. But this isn't entirely true. According to the Centers for Disease Control, consuming raw flour is also a salmonella risk. “Flour doesn't look like a raw food, but most flour is raw,” it notes.
When & Why Do You Need to Heat Treat Flour? Raw flour can contain bacteria like e.coli or salmonella so it's important to always heat your flour to a temperature of 160F before eating. (This is what makes eating edible cookie dough safe!)
