Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 cup almond flour
  • 1/4 cup coconut flour
  • 1/4 cup erythritol (or preferred keto sweetener)
  • 1 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Wet Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup unsweetened almond butter
  • 1/4 cup unsweetened coconut oil, melted
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 tablespoons unsweetened almond milk (or more if needed)

Optional

  • 1/4 cup sugar-free chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Combine Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, coconut flour, erythritol, ground ginger, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, baking soda, and salt. Mix thoroughly until all the dry ingredients are evenly distributed.
  2. Mix Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the almond butter, melted coconut oil, vanilla extract, and almond milk until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
  3. Form Dough: Gradually add the wet mixture to the dry ingredients, stirring consistently until a cohesive dough forms. If the dough feels too crumbly, add additional almond milk one tablespoon at a time until the dough holds together comfortably.
  4. Add Chocolate Chips: Fold in the sugar-free chocolate chips gently, if using, ensuring they are evenly scattered throughout the dough.
  5. Shape the Bites: Roll the dough into small balls approximately 1 inch in diameter, placing them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
  6. Chill to Firm Up: Refrigerate the cookie dough bites for at least 30 minutes to allow them to firm up and develop better texture.
  7. Serve and Store: Enjoy the cookie bites chilled or at room temperature. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week to maintain freshness.

Notes

  • Adjust the amount of almond milk to get the perfect dough consistency; too much will make it sticky.
  • For an extra festive touch, roll the dough balls in crushed nuts or unsweetened shredded coconut before chilling.
  • These bites are naturally gluten-free and suitable for ketogenic diets.
  • Make sure to use sugar-free chocolate chips to keep the recipe keto-compliant.
  • Store in the refrigerator as the coconut oil and almond butter keep the dough soft at cooler temperatures.
