Keto Sugar Cookies - the perfect soft and buttery low carb Christmas cut-out cookies for the holiday baking season. Best of all, these delicious classic holiday cookies are made with healthier, sugar free and gluten free ingredients.
Combine 1/2 cup plus 1 tablespoon butter, white sugar, vanilla sugar, and egg in a bowl. Beat with an electric mixer until light and fluffy. Mix flour and baking powder together. Beat into the butter mixture on low speed until dough becomes crumbly.
For an egg-free cookie, replace the egg with 1 tablespoon gelatin dissolved in 3 tablespoons water by whisking over low heat until frothy. Or if only avoiding egg whites, keep the egg yolk and use only 2 teaspoons gelatin and 2 tablespoons water. Looking for some other keto cookie recipes to make around the holidays?
