Ingredients
  

Dry Ingredients
  • 1 cup coconut flour
  • ¼ cup powdered erythritol (or monk fruit sweetener)
  • ½ teaspoon baking powder
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
Wet Ingredients
  • cup melted coconut oil
  • 3 large eggs
  • 2 tablespoons unsweetened almond milk
Optional Add-ins
  • ½ cup sugar-free chocolate chips
  • ¼ cup chopped almonds or pecans

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Gather all ingredients at room temperature.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together coconut flour, powdered erythritol, baking powder, and salt. Break up any clumps in the coconut flour.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk eggs until smooth, then add melted coconut oil (make sure it's not too hot), vanilla extract, and almond milk until creamy and well-combined.
  4. Pour wet ingredients into dry mixture and stir gently until just combined. Don't overmix. If too wet, add a tablespoon more coconut flour; if too dry, add a splash more almond milk.
  5. Form dough into 12 small balls and place on prepared baking sheet, spacing 2 inches apart. Gently flatten each ball with fingers or back of spoon.
  6. Bake for 12-15 minutes until edges are lightly golden brown and tops feel set when gently touched. Cool on baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to wire rack.

Notes

Don't overmix the dough to avoid tough cookies. Make sure melted coconut oil isn't too hot to prevent scrambling eggs. Let cookies cool on baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring. Store in airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days, refrigerate for up to 2 weeks, or freeze for up to 3 months. Can substitute erythritol with stevia (use half amount) or xylitol. Replace almond milk with heavy cream for richness, or use melted butter instead of coconut oil.
