Description
Easy sugar free cookies made with almond flour, oats, or peanut butter. Family-friendly, diabetic-friendly, and delicious.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 ½ cups flour (all-purpose, oat flour, or almond flour for gluten free sugar free cookies)
- ½ cup unsalted butter or coconut oil
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- ¼ tsp salt
- ½ cup sugar substitute (Stevia, monk fruit, Splenda, applesauce, honey, or maple syrup)
- ½ cup sugar free chocolate chips
- ½ cup natural peanut butter
- ½ cup rolled oats
- ½ cup almond butter or ground almonds
- Optional dried fruit (blueberries, apples, raisins)
Instructions
- Prep the base: Cream together ½ cup butter (or coconut oil) with your chosen sugar substitute until smooth and fluffy.
- Add dry ingredients: In a separate bowl, mix 1 ½ cups flour, 1 tsp baking powder, and ¼ tsp salt. Gradually add this to the butter mixture.
- Mix in flavors and add-ins: Stir in oats, sugar free chocolate chips, peanut butter, or other add-ins of choice.
- Chill the dough: Refrigerate dough for 20–30 minutes to keep cookies chewy and prevent spreading.
- Bake or no-bake option: For baked cookies, roll into balls, place on a lined baking sheet, and bake at 350°F (175°C) for 10–12 minutes until edges are golden. For no-bake cookies, combine oats, peanut butter, and sweetener in a saucepan, then drop spoonfuls onto wax paper to set.
- Cool and store: Allow cookies to cool fully before storing in an airtight container for 3–4 days or freeze up to 3 months.
Notes
For high-protein sugar free cookies, add 1–2 tbsp protein powder. Use almond flour and monk fruit for a low carb version. Always adjust sweetener ratios to avoid bitterness.
