FAQs
How should I store keto cookies?
Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or freeze for longer keeping. Reheat briefly if desired.
Can I substitute flours?
If you don’t have almond or coconut flour, you can substitute with the same total weight of another low-carb flour blend, or use 1:1 flaxseed meal as part of a recipe swap.
How can I adjust texture?
For crisper cookies, bake a minute or two longer; for softer cookies, reduce bake time by 1–2 minutes.
