Now you can use this recipe to enjoy keto Amaretti cookies, which can still be enjoyed even if you follow the keto diet. The intense almond-forward flavor of these cookies comes from the almond flour and the almond extract, but this keto version also swaps out regular sugar for alternative sweeteners, like those made from monkfruit.
How do you make keto almond cookies? Almond flour – You must use blanched almond flour, not almond meal. Granulated sweetener of choice – Either monk fruit sweetener or erythritol. Egg whites – Lightly beaten until soft peaks form. Save the yolks to make some custard. Almond extract – Gives the cookies a lovely almond flavor.
The cookies are sweet and with a subtle almond flavor, without being overpowering. I went to visit my mom the other day and brought her some of these cookies and she could NOT believe they were low carb- They reminded her so much of classic almond cookies (made with flour and sugar!).
Add your egg whites and almond extract into the dry mixture and mix until combined. Place your powdered sugar into a small bowl. Using your hands, roll out 12 balls of dough and dip them in the powdered sugar until completely covered.
