Keto Cookie Special Notes
Feel free to use whatever nut butter you like best. I personally like the coconut-almond butter which tastes great and is a combination of coconut butter for healthy fats and almond butter. You can use whatever natural sweetener you like, but to keep it keto you will need to stick with monk fruit, erythritol, xylitol or stevia.
If you would like a special discount on the monk fruit that I use, you can find it through Lakanto here and put in the coupon code Jockers for 20% off of your purchase. This discount sure beats buying these products at the health food store or on Amazon. This company has many fantastic keto approved products so try them out!
You can also add a few drops of stevia on top of the sweetener if you really want a sweet treat. For this recipe, a loaf pan was used, but feel free to double this recipe if you would like to make a big bath in an 8×8″ pan.

Dr Jockers Comments
This is a great tasting, sugar-free, fat burning, keto recipe that you and your family can enjoy anytime you would like. They are very filling so you don’t need many in one sitting but I recommend making a big batch that you can store in your freezer and warm up as a snack or dessert whenever you are in the mood.
Most people think they have to give up the warm, sweet, melt in your mouth cookie like texture when they go on a sugar-free, keto nutrition plan. Well I am here to tell you that you can enjoy that flavor and texture every day with great recipes like these cookie bars, while you teach your body to burn fat for fuel and improve your overall health!
This recipes uses coconut flour and coconut butter which are rich in healthy fats and microbiome supporting prebiotic fibers. It is also full of grass-fed butter which is a rich source of fat soluble vitamins, omega 3 fatty acids and conjugated linoleic acid (CLA). CLA helps to turn on the fat burning switch and is a great support for our bodies immune system.
Try this recipe out and let us know how you enjoyed it in the comments section below.
Dr. Jockers, this is delicious!!!!!!!!!! Wow, we can’t believe the flavors and texture. It’s super satisfying and we thank you so much for constantly sharing your recipes and helping to make keto so much more fun and creative. My husband plans to have these before long bike rides, such a great fuel source.
That’s a great idea Amanda! Glad you are enjoying them along with the ice cream!
Would using liquid stevia in place of the other sweetener have a major effect on the outcome of this recipe? If not would I just sweeten batter to taste ?
Yeah try it out and let us know how it comes out!
Not really an answer doc. Will the stevia alter the recipe? Could a monk fruit without erythritol be used in place of the monk fruit in your affiliate link? It can get REALLY pricey to experiment with tweeking another persons recipes, as you well know. TIA for your full and considered response.
Yes you can use those and let us know how they come out.
Hi Can you substitute eggs for flax egg please?
Yes you can! Let us know how it works out for you!
These worked out well. We sprayed muffin tins well and put a heaping tablespoon into each one and cut the baking time to 10 minutes and it worked like a charm. It made 15.
Great to hear that and thanks for sharing!
Has anyone tried a replacement for the butter? Coconut oil? I love butter- butter doesn’t like me.
There is no coconut butter in this recipe. “Coconut Almond butter” only contains almonds, palm oil and natural flavor. No coconut butter.
I noticed that too on the ingredient list. I wonder if it used to include coconut butter? I’m going to add some coconut butter to my almond butter since I have both. We’ll see how it turns out. 🙂
