    Keto and gluten free Christmas cookies

    The good thing about keto baking is the end product is almost always gluten free.  I like to use almond flour in my keto baked goods because it gives consistent results.  It is inherently gluten free which is a big win!

    I chose a peppermint mocha flavor for these Christmas cookies because that is my favorite holiday drink.  If you want a more traditional cookie for Christmas, you could try these other fan favorites:

    • Add your white chocolate chips and combine with a spatula. Using a 2 tablespoon cookie scoop, scoop out onto baking sheet 2 inches apart. Should make about 12 cookies. Flatten the tops of your cookie using your clean fingers or a spoon. Top with the crushed cane canes.

    Jennifer's tips

    I didn't us sugar free candy canes for this recipe because the add minimal carbs.  You could definitely use sugar free candy canes but they may be hard to find.
