Keto Cinnamon Toast Cookies Recipe
These keto-friendly cinnamon toast cookies are buttery, sweet, and packed with warm cinnamon flavor while staying low in carbs. With a soft and chewy texture, they’re topped with a creamy frosting for the perfect guilt-free treat.
Ingredients
For the Cookies:
- ¼ cup butter
- 3 oz cream cheese
- 1 large egg
- ½ cup powdered sweetener
- 3 tbsp granular sweetener
- ½ tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 tsp cinnamon
- ¾ cup coconut flour or 3 cups almond flour
- Small pinch of salt
For the Frosting:
- 8 oz cream cheese softened
- 2 oz butter softened
- ⅔ cup powdered sweetener
- 1 tbsp vanilla extract
Instructions
For the Cookies:
- Allow the butter and cream cheese to soften at room temperature. Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 350°F.
- Use a mixer to blend the butter with the powdered sweetener until smooth.
- Add the softened cream cheese and continue mixing until fully combined.
- Mix in the egg, baking powder, vanilla extract, and ½ teaspoon of cinnamon until incorporated. Gradually add coconut (or almond) flour and blend until a dough forms.
- In a separate bowl, combine the granular sweetener with 1.5 teaspoons of cinnamon.
- Form the dough into 12-15 small balls (about 2 tbsp each), then roll them in the cinnamon-sweetener mixture for a coating.
- Arrange the coated dough balls onto a parchment-lined baking sheet. Gently press each one to slightly flatten into a cookie shape.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes, then allow them to cool for about 5 minutes before serving.
For the Frosting:
- In a mixing bowl, combine all frosting ingredients and stir until smooth. Spread over cooled cookies before serving.
Notes
- Swap coconut flour for almond flour to achieve a softer, more traditional texture.
- Store cookies in an airtight container in the fridge for longer freshness.
