Keto Chocolate Chip Cookie Bars made with almond flour and sugar-free sweetener. Perfectly chewy, gooey and crispy.
PREPARATION TIME:
Prep Time:15 minutes
Cook Time:20 minutes
Total Time:35 minutes
Ingredients:
- 1 stick (1/2 cup) unsalted butter, or ghee, softened (not melted)
- 1/3 cup sugar-free sweetener of choice
- 1 large egg at room temperature
- 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
- 1 1/2 cups Super Fine Almond Flour
- 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon optional
- 1/2 tsp sea salt
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1 cup sugar-free chocolate chips
Instructions:
-
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and line an 8” x 8” baking pan with parchment paper.
-
Beat the butter in a stand mixer (or in a mixing bowl with an electric hand mixer) until fluffy. Add the sweetener nd vanilla extract and beat until creamy until fluffy. Scrape the sides of the mixer with a rubber spatula. Add egg and beat until well combined.
-
Add the almond flour, baking soda, sea salt and cinnamon and beat until well-combined. Beat in the chocolate chips until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
-
Transfer dough to the parchment-lined baking pan and press into an even layer. If desired, add more chocolate chips on top!
-
Bake on the center rack of the preheated oven for 20 to 25 minutes, until edges are golden brown and the bars seem firm. I let mine go for 20 minutes, then turn off the oven and let them sit for another 5 minutes in the oven. For gooier, under-baked bars, bake for 18 to 20 minutes and for firmer bars, bake for 25 to 30 minutes.
-
Remove bars from the oven and allow them to cool for at least 40 minutes before slicing and serving.
