Keto Pumpkin Snickerdoodle Cookies with Cream Cheese and Pecan Frosting
Keto desserts for the holidays are a MUST. To keep you on track and from totally blowing it (unless that’s your plan) so to keep yourself on track, or maybe just a snack during the whole month, the keto pumpkin snickerdoodles are the way to go!
Prep time: 10 minutes
Cook time: 10-14 minutes
Ingredients
1.5 cups almond flour
½ cup coconut flour
¾ cup Swerve granular
¼ cup pumpkin puree
1 tablespoon cinnamon
1 tablespoon pumpkin pie spice
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/8 teaspoon salt
½ cup butter (melted)
2 eggs
Snickerdoodle topping
¼ cup Swerve granular
1 teaspoon of cinnamon
Cream Cheese Frosting
¼ cup butter (melted for 30 seconds)
1 cup Swerve confectionary sugar
4 ounces cream cheese
Tablespoon of crushed pecans
1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F and either line a sheet pan with parchment paper or spray it with nonstick spray.
- In a large bowl, combine almond and coconut flours, cinnamon, pumpkin pie spice, salt, and baking soda. Whisk and combine well.
- In another bowl, mix melted butter, eggs, vanilla, pumpkin puree, and sugar until well combined.
- Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix until fully combined.
- Place cookie dough in the fridge for an hour.
- While cookie dough is setting in fridge, make your snickerdoodle topping.
- Using a small cookie scoop, make 24 cookies, rolling each one in your snickerdoodle mix. Once you place them on the sheet pan, press down slightly with a fork in two directions to make them flatter. They will not expand much.
- Cook for 10-14 minutes keeping a close eye on them not to burn.
- When they are done, let them cool for at least 15 minutes.
- To make the frosting, using a hand mixer, beat the butter, cream cheese, and vanilla until light and fluffy.
- Add in the confectionery sugar and pecans. Place in the fridge for about 10 minutes so it can harden a bit.
- Frost your cookies and enjoy! There will be some extra frosting (or not – depending on how much you use).
