Keto Cookies & Cream Pop Tarts
The ultimate gluten free & keto pop tarts recipe: frosted cookies and creme edition! Low carb, gluten free, and sugar free with just 2.5g net carbs per serving. Chocolate crust, creamy vanilla filling, and sweet white icing with Oreo-style cookie crumbles. Makes 4 large pop tarts, or 8 smaller pop tarts.
Ingredients
Pop-tart dough:
- ½ cup blanched almond flour
- ¼ cup coconut flour
- ¼ cup black cocoa powder
- ¼ cup granulated sugar-free sweetener
- ½ tsp xanthan gum
- ¼ cup Greek yogurt
- ¼ cup unsalted butter
- 1 large egg
Filling:
- ½ cup cream cheese
- ⅓ cup powdered sugar-free sweetener
Frosting:
- ½ cup powdered sugar-free sweetener
- 2 ½ tsp unsweetened dairy-free milk
- ⅛ tsp vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a sheet pan with parchment paper.
- Make dough: stir all dry ingredients together in a bowl. Add yogurt, melted butter, and egg to dry ingredients and stir until dough forms. Place dough in the refrigerator while you make the filling.
- Combine cream cheese and powdered sweetener and stir until smooth.
- Roll dough between parchment paper to about 1⁄8-inch thick. Cut into approximately eight 3.5x4.5-inch rectangles for large pop-tarts, or sixteen ~2x3-inch rectangles for smaller pop-tarts.
- Place half of the dough rectangles down on the baking sheet. Distribute filling in the centers of each rectangle, leaving 1⁄2-inch of space around edges.
- Top with remaining dough. Press edges down and trim with a knife if needed for cleaner looking edges. Crimp edges with the end of a fork.
- Place remaining scraps of dough on the pan to bake along with the pop-tarts (this will be the "crumble" topping).
- Bake 12-15 minutes for large pop-tarts, 7-10 minutes for smaller pop- tarts. Allow to cool.
- Combine frosting ingredients, and spread on top of pop-tarts.
- Crumble remaining baked dough pieces, and distribute on top of frosted pop tarts. Enjoy!
Notes
Dairy-Free Substitutions: Simply swap the Greek yogurt and cream cheese for dairy-free alternatives. There are plenty of dairy-free yogurts and cream cheese options on the market to choose from.
Recommended Sweeteners: I recommend using erythritol/monk fruit blend sweetener for the best results. For frosting, make sure to use a powdered/confectioners style sweetener. If you don’t need your pop tarts to be strictly sugar free or low carb, feel free to use regular cane sugar. I recommend organic cane sugar as it is usually less processed.
How to Store Pop Tarts: These low-carb pop tarts are best stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3-5 days. You can also freeze them for up to 3 months—just thaw and enjoy!
How to Toast Pop Tarts: Pop them in a toaster oven at a low temperature to warm them up. Avoid using a regular toaster, as the frosting may melt.
