How are these cookies sugar free?

What makes these cookies sugar free is by using a low carb sugar replacement. My favorite keto friendly sweetener to use is Swerve. There’s no crazy measurement conversions, meaning it measures just like sugar. I prefer the taste over other keto sweeteners. It’s a plant based, natural sugar that does not have the after bitterness taste that other keto sweeteners can have.

What’s a good brand of almond butter?

There’s not just one brand for a good almond butter. When choosing almond butter though, you do want to find a brand that only contains the nut itself. When you look at the ingredients, you want to see only almonds or almonds and salt. You do want to avoid any added sugar or oils. This would be an example of a recommended almond butter to use.

Recipe

Ingredients:

1 c almond butter
1 c swerve
1 egg
1 tsp vanilla
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/3 c dark chocolate chips (optional)*

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350.
Mix all 5 ingredients in an electric mixer until well combined. Optional: fold in chocolate chips.
Form into balls and place on ungreased cookie baking sheet.
Take a fork and make criss-cross lines in the dough while also flattening the cookies by pressing down on them gently.
Bake for 12-15 minutes until center comes out clean with a toothpick. (They will look not done and gooey, but they will continue to bake on the cookie sheet).
Let cookies cool on baking sheet for 10 minutes before removing or eating.
