Keto Sugar Cookies with Keystone Pantry Allulose
Buttery, tender, and perfectly sweet without the sugar spike!
💡 Why These Cookies?
Sugar cookies are a classic — simple, sweet, and satisfying. But traditional sugar cookies are loaded with carbs. This keto version delivers the same soft texture and delightful flavor with a fraction of the carbs, thanks to Keystone Pantry Allulose.
🍪 Ingredients & Purpose
Ingredient | Quantity | Purpose |
---|---|---|
Almond flour (blanched, superfine) | 2 cups (192g) | Provides structure and a mild, buttery flavor. Almond flour is naturally low-carb and high in healthy fats, making it perfect for keto baking. Superfine texture ensures a smooth cookie crumb. |
Keystone Pantry Allulose | ¾ cup (144g) | Our sweetener of choice! Allulose browns like sugar, adds sweetness without the carbs, and helps create that soft, chewy texture we love in sugar cookies. Unlike erythritol, it won’t leave a cooling aftertaste. |
Unsalted butter (softened) | ½ cup (113g) | Adds richness, moisture, and that signature buttery flavor essential to sugar cookies. Butter also helps with tenderness. |
Egg (large) | 1 | Acts as a binder, holding the cookie together, and contributes to a soft, tender texture. |
Vanilla extract (pure) | 1 ½ teaspoons | Enhances sweetness and brings out that classic sugar cookie flavor. |
Baking powder | ½ teaspoon | Adds just a hint of lift, keeping the cookies from being too dense without making them cakey. |
Salt | ¼ teaspoon | Balances sweetness and deepens flavor. Even in sweet bakes, salt is key to making other flavors pop. |
Optional: Almond extract | ¼ teaspoon | Adds a delicate, fragrant depth that complements the vanilla and almond flour. Great if you like a more complex flavor! |
📝 Instructions
1️⃣ Preheat and Prep
Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone mats to prevent sticking and promote even browning.
2️⃣ Cream Butter and Allulose
In a large mixing bowl, use an electric mixer to beat together the softened butter and Keystone Pantry Allulose until light and fluffy — about 2-3 minutes. This step incorporates air for tenderness and ensures the sweetener is well distributed.
💡 Why cream? Creaming butter with sweetener helps to create a fine, tender crumb while encouraging slight spreading as the cookie bakes.
3️⃣ Add Egg and Extracts
Beat in the egg, vanilla, and (optional almond extract) until fully combined. The mixture should look smooth and creamy.
4️⃣ Add Dry Ingredients
In a separate bowl, whisk together the almond flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add the dry mix to the wet mixture, stirring until a cohesive dough forms. If it seems sticky, let it rest for 5-10 minutes — almond flour absorbs moisture as it sits.
💡 Why rest? Resting allows the almond flour to hydrate, making the dough easier to handle.
5️⃣ Shape the Cookies
Scoop the dough by tablespoonfuls and roll into balls. Place them on the prepared baking sheets about 2 inches apart. Flatten slightly with your palm or the bottom of a glass for a classic sugar cookie shape.
👉 Optional: Sprinkle with a little extra allulose or press with a cookie stamp for decoration!
6️⃣ Bake
Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are just starting to turn golden. The centers may look slightly soft — that’s perfect! They’ll set as they cool.
7️⃣ Cool and Enjoy
Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack. This prevents overbaking and helps achieve that soft, chewy center.
