How To Make Keto Oreo Cookies?
The secret of making delicious crispy cookies comes from the cocoa powder and the sweetener. Erythritol is the best sweetener because it makes cookies very crisp and crunchy.
- Combine the dry ingredients: almond flour, cocoa powder, sweetener, salt, baking soda, espresso powder, and xanthan gum.
- In a different bowl, cream the butter, then add the egg and vanilla extract. Stir well to combine.
- Roll the cookie dough between two pieces of parchment paper and then cut out the cookies.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 8 to 10 minutes.
- Allow cookies to rest for 2-3 hours before filling them with delicious vanilla cream.
To get that dark brown, almost black keto Oreo cookies, you need to use dark chocolate cocoa powder. Using a classic cocoa powder will make light brown cookies that will still be incredibly tasty.
To make vanilla cream, it’s essential to use powdered sweetener. If you don’t have any, use your blender and process your favorite sweetener until it turns into a powder. Make sure the blender is completely dry before using it.
For me, it’s easier to order a bag of powdered sweetener from Amazon (Affiliate Link). It lasts for months.
