Keto Peanut Butter Blossoms
The best recipe for keto, gluten-free peanut butter blossoms! These low carb Christmas cookies taste just like the classic, with only 2 net carbs per cookie. Perfect for your low-carb holiday dessert table!
Ingredients
- ½ cup unsweetened creamy peanut butter 128g
- ¼ cup unsalted butter softened (56g)
- 1 large egg
- ½ tsp vanilla extract 2.5ml
- ¼ cup powdered sugar-free sweetener 48g
- 2 Tbsp coconut flour 14g
- ¼ tsp baking soda 1.5g
- ¼ tsp salt 1.5g
- 2 ½ Tbsp granulated sugar-free sweetener 30g
- 5 Tbsp sugar-free chocolate chips melted (70g)
Instructions
- Make chocolate “kisses”: Melt chocolate chips in the microwave in 15- 30 second intervals, until smooth. Fill each cavity in the mold with melted chocolate. Lightly tap to remove air bubbles, then poke a toothpick into each one to remove any air bubble that may form at the tip. Refrigerate until hardened, then remove each kiss from the mold.
- Add peanut butter and softened butter to a bowl and stir or beat until smooth and combined. Add egg and vanilla and stir again until smooth.
- Mix in powdered sweetener until dissolved, then add coconut flour, baking soda, and salt, until combined and mixture begins to thicken.
- Place bowl of dough in the refrigerator until firm, usually at least 1-2 hours.
- Preheat oven to 350 °F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Add granulated sweetener to a small bowl. Remove dough from the fridge, and roll into smooth 1-inch balls.
- Roll each ball in granulated sweetener, then place on cookie sheet.
- Bake for 6-8 minutes.
- Remove from oven and immediately press one chocolate “kiss” into the center of each cookie. Allow to cool.
- Enjoy!
Notes
To make the “kiss” shapes, I used a silicone mold purchased from Amazon. Unfortunately they no longer sell the exact one that I used, but here is a similar option (not an affiliate link). If you don’t want to get a chocolate kiss mold, you can also just press a few chocolate chips into the center of each cookie (about 1 tsp per cookie), or use any similar-to-a-Hershey-kiss sized sugar free chocolates.
