Keto Sugar Cookie Recipe Gluten Free Low Carb Maebells

LOW CARB KETO SUGAR COOKIES

Steps:

• Beat all ingredients together or pulse together in a food processor until dough forms. If dough is a little sticky, it's best to sprinkle in some coconut flour on the outer surfaces when rolling.
• Roll dough out between two pieces of parchment paper to desired thickness (between 1/8 and 1/4 inch). Thinner cookies bake quicker and tend to be more crisp. Sprinkle a little extra coconut flour (or almond flour/sunflower seed flour) on to dough as needed. Dough can also be rolled into a log and frozen for 20-30 minutes and then sliced into circles for easy "slice and bake" cookies.
• Cut into shapes and place on parchment lined baking pan.
• Bake in oven at 350°F for 8-10 minutes or until edges are lightly browned.
• Remove from oven, let cool on rack for about 5-10 minutes then transfer cookies to a cooling rack until completely cooled.

GLUTEN-FREE SUGAR COOKIES

Steps:

• Whisk flour, baking powder, and salt together in a bowl. Beat white sugar, 3/4 cup butter, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract together in a bowl using an electric mixer; beat in eggs, 1 at a time, until mixture is smooth. Mix butter mixture into flour mixture and form dough into a ball. Wrap ball with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 1 hour.
• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
• Roll dough onto a lightly floured surface and cut into shapes using cookie cutters. Arrange cookies on a baking sheet.
• Bake in the preheated oven until edges begin to brown, about 10 minutes. Cool cookies on the baking sheet for 2 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
• Beat cream cheese, 1/4 cup butter, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract together in a bowl using an electric mixer until smooth. Slowly beat confectioners' sugar into cream cheese mixture until icing is smooth; spread onto cooled cookies.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325F degrees and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Add collagen, almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, ¼ cup sweetener, and salt to a medium-sized bowl. Whisk well until combined.
• Add butter and ⅓ cup sweetener to a large bowl or stand mixer. Beat for 1 minute until light and fluffy. Add egg and vanilla extract. Mix until well combined.
• Add dry mixture to wet mixture in two batches, mixing between each addition.
• Portion and divide dough into 1" balls on a baking sheet. Sprinkle on extra sweetener or sprinkles if desired. Lightly press the dough down to desired shape (these will not rise or spread much).
• Bake for 10-12 minutes until very lightly golden brown. Remove from the oven and let cool completely on a wire rack.
