How To Make Keto Pecan Chocolate Chip Cookies

Creating this recipe is quite simple.

To start, cream softened butter, sugar-free sweeteners, and sugar-free syrup in a large bowl using either an electric mixer or a stand-up mixer. Ensure that it is thoroughly combined to achieve the perfect texture.

Next, add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Sprinkle gelatin powder into the cookie dough and mix it well.

After that, add the dry ingredients—the almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, and salt to the wet ingredients. Mix well.

Then, add sugar-free chocolate chips and chopped pecans to the mixture and fold them in.

Drop the cookie dough onto a baking sheet using a small cookie scoop or by tablespoons, ensuring that they are spaced evenly, about 2 inches apart. Slightly flatten the cookies to achieve the desired shape.

Bake the cookies for 12 to 15 minutes in a preheated 350-degree oven, or until they turn golden brown in color. Once baked, allow them to cool on a baking rack before serving.

If there are any leftovers, store them in the refrigerator in an airtight container for up to 5 days or freeze them for up to 3 weeks. This will ensure that the cookies remain fresh and can be enjoyed later.

Best Keto Sweetener Options

This recipe uses a combination of sugar substitutes, both a white granulated monkfruit sweetener and a brown sugar substitute.

My top choice for a white granulated sweetener is a monk fruit/erythritol blend, Lakanto, but you can also use Swerve, an erythritol sugar substitute.

You could also use the stevia and erythritol-based brand Pyure. However, if using Pyure, you will want to use half the amount called for in this recipe since it’s a much sweeter choice.

Regarding what brown sugar substitute to use, I recommend Swerve’s Brown Sugar or Sukrin Gold.

I find that these two brands have the best texture for chewy keto chocolate chip cookies.

The brown sugar substitute gives a depth of flavor that you would otherwise miss, so I wouldn’t omit it if you want to ensure the same results.

Best Sugar-Free Chocolate Chips

When choosing which chocolate chips to use, I love Lily’s semi-sweet chocolate chips for their lovely chocolate flavor and melting point.

If you prefer a more intense chocolate flavor, you could also use Lily’s dark chocolate chips. Either one works beautifully and gives consistent results.

But if you can’t get your hands on Lily’s Chocolate for this keto recipe, you can also use Hershey’s sugar-free chocolate chips.

Pecan Keto Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough

To achieve the perfect flavor and texture for these keto cookies, I decided to use a combination of both almond and coconut flour. It’s something I learned as I mastered keto baking.

I also added a tablespoon of gelatin powder to the cookie dough to give the cookies a chewy structure, which worked perfectly.

In addition to these ingredients, I added a secret ingredient that I believed would enhance the flavor of these low-carb cookies. Can you guess what it is?

Well, I added a tablespoon of sugar-free maple syrup to create a brown sugar flavor profile without the extra carbs from molasses.

This turned out to be an excellent choice and made a massive difference in creating the perfect keto pecan chocolate chip cookie flavor.
