Keto Nutella Cookies

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use a different type of flour instead of almond flour?

Sunflower seed flour is the closest swap. The texture will be a little different, but it works. Coconut flour won't work here since it absorbs too much moisture.

What can I use instead of monkfruit sweetener?

Erythritol or allulose both work as a 1:1 swap. If you use stevia, start with less since it's much sweeter drop for drop.

How should I store these keto cookies?

Airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. They'll keep in the fridge for a week or the freezer for a month.

Are these cookies suitable for meal prep?

Since this is a single-serve recipe, I'd just mix the dry ingredients ahead of time and store them in a small jar. When you want a cookie, add the butter and vanilla, stuff it, and bake.

How many carbs are in each cookie?

About 3g net carbs per cookie, which fits easily into a low carb day. Your count will vary depending on which chocolate chips and hazelnut spread you use, so check labels.

I created this recipe for those nights when I want something sweet but don’t need a whole batch of cookies staring me down. The base is an egg free chocolate chip cookie dough, and the center is filled with creamy chocolate hazelnut spread. One cookie, done.

Single-serve desserts are my go-to because sugar-free ingredients aren’t cheap. Why make a dozen cookies when you only want one? This is the recipe I reach for when a craving hits and I want to stay on track.

What is Nutella?

Nutella was created by Pietro Ferrero in the early 1960s. It’s a chocolate hazelnut spread that pretty much everyone loves, but traditional Nutella is loaded with sugar and carbs. For this recipe, we use a sugar-free version instead. A couple brands make one, including Lakanto and ChocZero.

I prefer ChocZero’s sugar-free chocolate hazelnut spread because it doesn’t contain palm oil or soluble corn syrup. Only 1g net carb per serving. It’s also palm oil free and not made with soluble corn fiber, so it works for people with corn allergies. The one downside: ChocZero uses fructooligosaccharide (FOS), which can cause stomach discomfort in some people. Lakanto makes a similar product called Suntella, a chocolate sunflower spread. No FOS, but higher in carbs.

If you don’t have a sugar-free hazelnut spread on hand, peanut butter or almond butter work as a creamy substitute. You can also find recipes for homemade versions online.

Why Single Serve?

I’m a big fan of single-serve desserts, especially on a low carb diet. You make exactly what you need, there’s nothing left over to tempt you later, and you’re not burning through an entire bag of almond flour for one cookie. It’s better for your wallet and your willpower.

Three Ways to Bake

You can bake this cookie in the oven, microwave, or air fryer. The microwave is fastest at 45 seconds, but the oven gives you the best texture (and your kitchen will smell amazing). However you cook it, let it cool completely before picking it up. These are soft and fragile right out of the heat. A fork works great if you can’t wait.
