Description
These keto chocolate chip cookie dough bites are a safe, no-bake treat that satisfies sweet cravings without the guilt. Made with simple pantry ingredients like almond flour and erythritol, they offer a chewy, dough-like texture that is safe to eat raw and ready in just 10 minutes.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups (200g) blanched almond flour
- ½ cup (113g) unsalted butter, softened to room temperature
- 2 tablespoons creamy almond butter
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- ½ teaspoon sea salt
- ½ cup (50g) granulated erythritol or monk fruit sweetener
- 1 tablespoon psyllium husk powder
- ½ cup (85g) keto chocolate chips (e.g., Lily’s or Ghirardelli 86% dark)
- Mini chocolate chips (optional)
Instructions
- Ensure butter is softened to room temperature. If cold, microwave for 10-15 seconds until soft but not melted.
- In a medium mixing bowl, combine softened butter, almond butter, vanilla extract, and sea salt. Mix until smooth and creamy with no streaks of butter remaining.
- Add almond flour, psyllium husk powder, and sweetener to the wet ingredients. Stir until combined; the mixture will initially look crumbly but will bind together as the psyllium absorbs moisture.
- Fold in the chocolate chips using a spatula, distributing them evenly without crushing them. If the dough is too dry, add a tablespoon of almond butter or splash of almond milk. If too wet, add a sprinkle of almond flour.
- Line a baking sheet or plate with parchment paper. Scoop out portions of dough (about 1 tablespoon each) and roll into balls.
- Place the dough balls on the lined sheet and freeze for 10 minutes to firm up.
- Serve immediately for a cold, ice-cream-like texture, or store in an airtight container.
Notes
Use blanched almond flour (skinless) for a smooth texture, not almond meal. Room temperature butter is crucial for a creamy dough. Psyllium husk powder provides the chewy texture; do not skip it. These bites are safe to eat raw as they contain no eggs or raw flour. For best results, chill before eating to enhance flavor and texture.
