Description
Delicious and nutritious cookies made with almond flour and sugar-free butterscotch chips, perfect for satisfying your sweet tooth without the guilt.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup fine almond flour (like Blue Diamond)
- 1 cup quick oats (use regular quick oats if not wanting gluten free)
- 2 tablespoons healthy sweetener (like Lakanto Monk fruit Sweetener)
- 1/4 cup healthy brown sugar (like Lakanto Monk fruit Sweetener)
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 large egg
- 1/4 cup butter (melted)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1–2 tablespoons milk of choice (if dough is too thick)
- 1/2 cup sugar free butterscotch chips (like Lily’s)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. Set it aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the almond flour, oats, sugars, baking powder, baking soda and salt.
- Add the egg, melted butter and vanilla and mix until combined. Fold in the butterscotch chips. (If the batter is too thick, add the milk of choice, as needed.)
- Using a cookie scoop or a large spoon, scoop out heaping tablespoons of dough and place the scoops of dough onto the lined sheet. Press each one down slightly.
- Bake the cookies for around 10 minutes, or until the edges are beginning to go golden brown. Remove from the oven and allow to cool completely.
Notes
- Store cookies in an airtight container.
- For a softer texture, add more milk if needed.
- These cookies can be made gluten-free by using certified gluten-free oats.
