Sugar Free Keto Coconut Cookies
 

Sugar Free Keto Coconut Cookies

 
This recipe reminds me a lot of my Sugar Free Keto Chocolate Covered Coconut Candy.
I think that is because both this recipe and that chocolate covered coconut candy recipe are both keto friendly and feature the great taste of coconut in them.
 

However, this recipe is clearly a cookie recipe.
I should say that it both tastes and looks like a cookie. You know what they say about walking and looking like a duck :).
 

This cookie recipe features both Almond Flour and Coconut Flour .

I have mentioned in the past that almond flour is just finely ground skinless almonds. There is only one ingredient in this gluten free and low carbohydrate flour and that ingredient is almonds.

Because almond flour is gluten free, in many recipes it will require some kind of a binding agent.
In this recipe we will be using an additional egg to serve as that binding agent. Almond flour also adds to the taste and the texture of a recipe such as this one.

People always ask me if your can substitute coconut flour for all purpose flour.

When it comes to replacing all purpose flour with coconut flour in baked recipes, you will need less of the coconut flour than your would need of the regular all purpose kind. This is because of the coconut flour will absorb liquids more efficiently than all purpose flour would. So, as a result, to balance out the ingredients in your recipe, less of the coconut flour is needed.

There are several methods that you can use to know how much coconut flour to use in a recipe when you are replacing all purpose flour.

The first method is to simply use trial and error when it comes to using the coconut flour and balancing it out with the liquid ingredients. Another way to is to use about ¼th of what the flour amount would be, then increasingly add more to the mixing bowl if the liquids seem to be not getting absorbed. However, my personal favorite way to judge the amount of coconut flour that I will need is to look at the packaging for the suggested amount from the manufacturer of that specific coconut flour.

 

Here is what you need to know about coconut flour.

Coconut flour is made from a process of baking coconut meat, that has been separated from the milk, and then grounding it into 'flour'. Because of its consistency, coconut flour can be used in recipes that may call for all purpose flour.
The good news about coconut flour is that it is plant based and friendly to Gluten Free, Vegan, Paleo, Keto and Organic recipes.

Coconut flour is also high in fiber and healthy fats as well as having protein in it. Unlike some other flour alternatives, coconut flour can be used to thicken gravy and soups.

Here are some tips for using coconut flour in this Sugar Free Keto Coconut Cookie recipe.

  1. I already mentioned that coconut flour is not a 1:1 substitute for all purpose flour. It is best to use ¼ th of the needed amount of flour ( ie ¼th of a cup to every cup) in a recipe and then increase it as needed.
  2. It is the fiber that is in coconut flour that causes it to absorb the liquids unlike any other kinds of flour can. As a result, the batter may be a bit harder to mix than with other kinds of flour.
  3. Adding eggs (additional to a normal recipe) is the perfect way to both add liquid and binding to a recipe
  4. Coconut flour can be refrigerated or frozen to make it last longer.

The absorption of liquid that comes coconut flour comes with a few other considerations.
Sifting coconut flour allows it to breath better when it is combined with other ingredients. Also, baked goods should not be stored in too tight of a container.

    I love your recipes and have tried several. My son is a type 1 diabetic and so I look for recipe that is sugar free. This recipe calls for milk which has a lot of sugar. Do you know if I could substitute almond milk? Thanks again.

      Hi. You could try almond milk although, it may turn out a bit loose in texture. Heavy whipping cream is another option. Certainly trying an alternative such as almond milk may take a few tries and adjustments to get the results right. Thanks!
