Best Chocolate Chip Cookies Paleo and Low Carb-
The Best Chocolate Chip Cookies Paleo and Low Carb, grain free, gluten free, and a sugar free version.
This is my favorite paleo and low carb recipe for chocolate chip cookies, and I can’t even count how many batches of chocolate chips cookies I have made over the last few years that were just not good to kinda okay.
I have different kinds of cookie recipes on my site, but not a plain old fashioned chocolate chip cookie recipe. I always had to add some other ingredient to them to make them have a better texture or taste, which made them a different kind of cookie.
There should be an award for the most failed batches of cookies, because I would be shoe in!
These are a keeper though, and not a one time fluke either. I have made batches of them several times, and they were consistently awesome!!
My daughter said “these are gluten free cookies, mom?” I said “yes”, and she said “great job mom, they are surprisingly really good”. Everyone is a critic, lol.
Only 2 net carbs per cookie for the low carb version 😀

Erythritol. …how much would I use to have a slightly sweet cookie? I’m going to make these tomorrow and guess at the amount because I just got Honeyville almond flour and I so much want a crispy edge chewy chocolate chip cookie. Yum!
Loie, I would use about a 1/2 cup sweetener for an only slightly sweet cookie.
I didnt see where you listed what molasses you used. Blackstrap?
Brandy, I used organic blackstrap molasses.
LOVE THEM
Betsty, you’re too kind. Thank you 🙂
These are fab! I used 1/3 c Erythritol with a tiny bit of Stevia powder. I pressed them flatter after baking since they didn’t flatten while baking. Next time I will use even less sweetning. They are so satisfying! Yay , I now have a cookie that I love to eat!
Loie, try maybe a 1/2 cup for slightly sweet.
Fantastic!
Thank you so much Betsy!
Loves these! I used swerve, added a little molasses and as well as the almond and coconut flours I also added just over a third of a cup of pb2 powder and now they’re chocolate chip peanut butter cookies. Score!
Thank you Niamh. Great idea with the pb powder 🙂
Hi Stacey! I am very excited to make the cookies, they look delicious!! I have one question before I start though – do you think I might be able to use only egg whites instead of a whole egg? I bought a carton of liquid egg whites that I need to use before it goes bad and it would also lower the calories per cookie a bit. I would love to hear back from you! Thanks 🙂
Thank you so much Martina. I’m not entirely sure, but I’m thinking they might need that yolk to bind the cookies, so they don’t fall apart.
Been on a keto diet for two months now, I have a ravenous sweet tooth thanks to my Scottish Gma. Tried several low carb cookies, treats and all were ok to failure. This recipe is a KEEPER!! I’m sooooo glad I came across this recipe. This is one to pass down as a family recipe. I did not put molasses in but mine did not flatten out, I pressed them round after the first batch. I don’t know why but it doesn’t matter cause the are wonderful!!! Thank you Stacey!!!!
Hi Caren, thank you so much! You’re too kind 🙂 I well know the failed low carb treat experience, lol. I also have a sweet tooth thanks to my mom and other relatives that are unbelievable bakers of sugary carb loaded treats. So thrilled you are enjoying the recipe. It just makes my week to hear this.
The flavor was good but mine came out really chewy. I used xylitol. Is that why? I was hoping for a little crisp…
Hi Emily, Yes, using a different sweetener can change the texture. I have noticed this. If your making low carb version it is best to use Swerve or truvia brown sweetener (Truvia is used in smaller amount though, 1/3 cup), or other erythritol based sweeteners.
Perfect advice! Thank you! 🙂 I love the flavor so I’m definitely making these again! Adjusting to a low carb lifestyle has its challenges, but nothing a cookie can’t fix 😉
Thank you Emily.
This is my first time making this and I just read your comment about using 1/3 on the trivia brown sugar blend so I’m not sure how there going to turn out I’m nervous 😰
They might extra sweet, but hopefully still good.
I used Raw Sugar for the sweetener and raw honey instead of molasses and they were wonderful!
Thank you so much Audrey for trying the recipe, and sharing your sweetener option with us 🙂
After you place them on the parchment paper, do you flatten them with the palm of your hand or do you leave them in round shaped balls and they flatten on their own?
Natalie, I did not flatten them, as they kind of spread out on their own in the oven.
Hi: I made these cookies twice. Both times delicious! I’m not hugely concerned about Paleo, just wanted something lower carb for my diabetic sister. I used Splenda as the sweetener. The first time I followed the instructions to ‘cream the butter and sweetener, but Splenda does not cream very well, like real sugar.
When I made them today, I melted the butter and mixed it with the eggs and vanilla. I then added the Splenda to the dry ingredients and continued the recipe as described. They came out even better! Such a nice treat. Thank you!!
Thank you Silvia for your kind words and for sharing your experience and tips with us. I haven’t worked with Splenda before, but many viewers do, so this will be very helpful. 🙂
Can I use stevia instead of swerve or coconut sugar? If so same amount?
I can’t also have salt or molasses. Would the recipe work without those ingredients and with stevia?
Hi Lina, Possibly an erythritol- stevia combo type granular sweetener (like truvia), or a monk fruit type granular sweetener would work. Stevia does not work out so well in this recipe. You can omit the salt and molasses.
I am allergic to Almond flour is there some other flour ?
Kathleen, can you have cashew flour?
By the way I forgot to say I loved them thanks so much for the recipe will definitely be making more.
I made these cookies with my little man who is 3years old he had so much making and them and eating them. The only problem is they did not come out the same as the picture they stayed small and fat like a ball. What did I do wrong? I followed it to the last ingredient. I think I used Splenda for sugar can you not use that?
Hi Jessica N, I used Swerve as a sweetener, but I think other viewers have used splenda. Maybe get the butter more soft before mixing. Strange, more people have the cookies spreading than staying in a ball during baking. Glad they still taste good 🙂
Would putting the cookie sheet in the refrigerator for 10 minutes or so, prior to putting them in the oven, help with the cookies spreading?
Lynette, the freezer would be even better for that.
Thanks so much! I’m going to try making them tonight for a potluck at work tomorrow! YIKES! Wish me luck! Lol
Lynette, have fun at the potluck 🙂
Just made them…they are really good! The only thing I didn’t have was Molasses or pecans, but I did not substitute it with anything else and I really enjoyed the recipe. The only comment i would make is it was probably be easier to mix the butter with sugar if it was at room temperature.
Jenny, Thank you so much for your kind word . Yes the butter can be softer for mixing but still cool, and not melted, or the cookies can spread while baking.
Delicious cookies. Thank you very much. Regards from Costa Rica.
Silvia, thank you so much! I wish I was in Costa Rica right now. Stunningly beautiful there.
One word AMAZING!!! Without any guilt!
Thank you for the wonderful recipe and what a treat!
Highly recommended ❤️
Mary, thank you so much. You are so very kind!! So thrilled you enjoyed them 🙂
These are delicious!! I omitted molssaes and for the sweetener I used 1/3 cup Splenda brown sugar blend. I almost wish I wouldn’t have found this recipe because they are sooooo addictive. Thank you for posting.
Thank you so much Vanessa! I am so happy you are enjoying them 🙂
Wow! Just made my first batch…delicious!!!! I’ve been on the Keto diet for 2 months and have not had much success with keto sweet recipes. So glad I tried this recipe.
Jennifer, thank so much for trying the recipe and taking the time to leave a very kind comment and review. I am happy these worked out for you. Your kind words made my day!
I am wondering how you store them. I made them and they are delicious. I didn’t know if they could be stored in a container on the counter or needed to be refrigerated. Thank you.
Hi Laura, I had mine in a covered container on the counter for one day & night, then put in them fridge the next day. They could be on the counter for a day longer maybe, but I didn’t want to chance it, as it can get humid where I live and unprocessed food can spoil faster here.
Oh my goodness, these are incredible! I replaced the sweetener and molasses with 1/2c of Splenda brown sugar blend. The cookies are chewy and addicting! Have to get them in the freezer ASAP…lol
Hi Melody, Thank you so much for trying the recipe and taking the time to leave a kind comment. I know what you mean, I have trouble keeping my paws off of them! I try to only make them when people are here, as I should not be alone with a batch of them, lol.
Hi, can the dough be refrigerated for a later time or frozen?
Hi Tiffany, I would think you could refrigerate the dough for a few days. Not sure about freezing it, but it can probably be done.
Should these come out of the oven with brown bottoms but tops the look decidedly undone?
Lisa, They do look that way until they are cooled almost completely, then the tops will then set up. That way they are a little crisp on the outer edges and softer in the middle.
Thank you so much for this amazing recipe! My 5 year old son eats Paleo for medical reasons and he’s been going crazy for a cookie! I’ve made some other paleo sweets, none of which have been well received. He was so excited to help me make them and even more excited to help eat them! He ate 2 after they cooled and is already asking for another after dinner. My 7 year old, extremely picky daughter also loved them. Instead of butter we used organic coconut palm shortening and they came absolutely perfect! Thank you!
Hi Jennifer, I know the “going crazy for a cookie” feeling when you have dietary restrictions. I am so thrilled your son and daughter are enjoying them. I use the palm shortening instead of butter sometimes too and it works out just great! Thank you for taking the time to leave such a kind comment.
Delicious!!! Made the Paleo version tonight, without molasses, and the whole family loved them. My husband ate 4, and he never likes the paleo treats I make. Thanks!
Thank you Amy for your most kind words 🙂 So glad your hubby approves! They can be so particular.
These are my fave keto cookie! And I’ve been LCHF for 7 years come April, so I’ve tried MANY. THANK YOU!
Thank you so much Jean. You’re very kind to take the time to leave a glowing review. It really made my week 🙂
Perfect! We love these! We used Lily’s stevia sweetened chocolate chips. Yummy cookies! Thank you!
We also used Swerve confectioners and left out molasses. We’re doing Atkins/Keto.
Thanks Robin for letting us know. 🙂
Hi Robin.
Thank you so much for your kind comments and the glowing review. You are very sweet to take the time to do that. I am thrilled to hear that they are good without the molasses, as it so messy to use, and would be much simpler to leave it out, lol.
These are the best paleo cookies ever! I’m switching my pickiest eater to paleo and she loved these. They taste just like the real thing. Thanks for the recipe!
Thank you so much Mary for your very kind words 🙂
Best gf chocolate chip cookie I have made to date! Thanks for the recipe-it’s my new go-to chocolate chip cookie!
Thank you so much Deanne for your very kind words. I really appreciate the support 🙂
Hello! My son has a tree nut allergy and can’t have the almond four. He’s not allergic to coconut though. Any suggestions on what to replace the almond flour with and still be low carb? Sounds like a yummy recipe that I want to try out!
Koho, I have not been successful in trying to make this recipe with all coconut flour. It could possibly work with sunflower seed flour, but you would need to remove the baking power or baking soda, because baking soda + sunflower seed flour will turn the cookies green. I have not tried it though.
I made these andIve been making these for a while now and this time i replaced half the butter with lard. Omg! It finally turned out EXACTLY like cookie dough! They are amazing!
Justina, thank you for making these and your kind words and great feedback. Will be trying the lard tip, thanks 🙂
This is simply an amazing recipe the only problem is hovering over them waiting for them to cool enough to become an it more solid (hardest part of making these) I’m patiently waiting 🤗. This is my 2nd batch!!!
Oh Marie, thank you so much. You’re so kind, with a great sense of humor 🙂
Hi Stacey! Yummy recipe but like anothe rposter said mine flattened out. :(. I used cold butter and I live in NJ and it’s snowing so it’s not a warm climate so I’m not sure what happened! If the butter is cold, how does it properly cream? My butter/Splenda creamed mixture was very gritty. Any suggestions?? Thanks again!
Hi Maureen, the butter can be cold or room temp, I recommend cold if it is hot inside, as the butter will quickly soften. If your kitchen is cold you can let it soften a bit at room temp before creaming it with the sweetener. These cookies can be more flat or not as much depending on how big and mound like you make them when putting them on the baking sheet. I find using a cookie scoop helps with this & makes them more uniform. I hope this helps. Grain free cookies can be so finicky sometimes 😉
So I’ve made these 3 times.. first time perfect ! Second time I added coconut makes them into more of a mound- like cookie now I am making for the third time and I can’t figure out why but even without the coconut they don’t flatten ? Any ideas
Was there anything you did different the third time? Coconut adds bulk so it would make them a bulkier cookie.
Just wanted to make sure you’re chilling the dough to make sure it’s very cold and also make sure your pan is cold. If I use two cookie sheets, I eat bwttwre results between batches rather than putting room temp dough on a warm cookie sheet. Take out when baked, the use parchment paper so you can quickly transfer the cookies on top of a cold granite counter top. That’s how mine come out perfect.
We’ve made these a couple times now and the 2nd time they were amazing!! The first time, I tasked my daughter, a self-proclaimed baker, with making them. We didn’t have any eggs in the house so I made an egg replacement using flax/water. She thought she was using parchment paper but actually used wax paper to line the pan. OOPS!! So the 1st batch were a flop. Definitely stick with making them SMALL!! She opted for large cookies and they spread out to cover almost the entire cookie sheet. So the next time, I made them myself with an egg, parchment paper, and kept them small. Like I said, they were amazing!! I’m low carving, so I used Xylitol as my sweetener and didn’t use quite as much as the recipe called for simply because I prefer things a little less sweet these days–I’m turning into my Grandma! When I was in my teens she suggested not adding as much sugar as recipes called for (Grandpa was diabetic at that point) and I thought she was crazy. Now I’m in my 40s and my taste buds have totally changed. But anyway! Thanks so much for a delicious recipe! They definitely hit the sweet spot of my craving!
Thank you Tina for trying this recipe twice 🙂 They do need that egg to bind them together. I know what you mean by the taste buds changing. Now that I am almost 50 I can’t handle very sweet or salty. I have to judge the sweets by my kids taste buds, or else my treats would be not sweet enough for most people.
Yes!! The egg made all the difference! And I have to tell you, even with the first time’s mistakes, we still ate them! It wasn’t till they were almost gone that I realized she had used wax paper instead of parchment…but they were good, wax and all! They just weren’t nearly as cookie-perfect as the 2nd batch!
Tina, I have have totally done the wax paper mistake before, lol 🙂
They’re the same color and right beside each other in our storage drawer–an EASY mistake to make!
Tina, it is very true, and I also don’t want to go get my reading glasses, so I do grab the wrong one sometimes. One time I used curry spice instead of pumpkin spice, as the spice containers and colors were very similar, and when I realized my error, I thought my pumpkin muffins were going to be inedible. But they were actually not bad at all (not as good as the ones with pumpkin spice of course). 🙂
Just tried these. Used 1/3 cup pyure as the sweetener. I LOVED it! The true test was when I offered it to my teenage boys who have been rather skeptical of my recent trend of getting ‘healthy’ on them. I offered them healthy brownies recently and they hated them. They tentatively tried these, and when 3 were inhaled in 5 seconds, I knew I had a winner! Thanks!
Marci, Thank you for trying the recipe and your kind words. So glad they past the teen boy taste test, lol. I have a 13 year old boy and college age kids, who are also skeptical of healthy treats and food. They inhaled these too. I am lucky to get one.
Wondering if I add low sugar Cranraisins and natural coconut (sugar free) and maybe walnuts instead of pecans, would that alter the texture? or just make them much better.
Hi Mark,
You can use walnuts instead of pecans, and the other additions sound really good, but the coconut may change the texture somewhat (might be really good though). Cranberries are excellent in cookies!
Can I omit the coconut flour and use just almond flour?? Does it hurt the recipe ?
Miranda, you could replace the 1 tbsp coconut flour with 4 tbsps more almond flour, but it may not be exactly the same texture.
The only ingredient I don’t have is the coconut flour. It’s a very small amount needed.. can I just skip the coconut flour in this recipe??
Did you spoon or scoop your almond flour? I can’t wait to make these and know measuring incorrectly will destroy the texture.
Thanks,
Rochelle
Hi Rochelle, I just scooped the almond flour with a measuring cup.
can you use honey instead of coconut sugar for the sweetener? thanks!
Uzma, Changing the coconut sugar to honey will change the liquid to dry ingredients ratio which can the texture of the cookies.
Hey Stacey!
Just tried these last night! I used 1/2 cold butter and 1/2 cold coconut oil (because I ran out of butter).My cookies turned out kind of cake-like, do you think it could be because of the coconut oil?
I really am dying for a crisp chewy cookie and I am having a really hard time making that happen!
Thank you!
-Faith
Faith, the butter works the best for the best cookie texture, and also letting the cookies cool enough to get solid also helps.
These look amazing!! The butter in these wouldn’t work for my family though. Do you think that cold ghee or cold coconut oil would work for a substitute?
Emmalee, you can use organic palm shortening (cool to room temp) in the recipe if you’re dairy free. I’m not sure if Ghee would work.
wonderful recipe! The only change was I subbed 1/3 c of splenda brown sugar baking blend for 1/3 of the swerve. (since I didn’t have molasses) They have a great taste and texture. my 14 yr old daughter that is doing Low carb with me loved them! I used sugar free mini chocolate chips from our local Amish Store. I plan to explore your other recipes as well. thanks!
Thank you so much Sonya. I’m so happy that your daughter liked them. It is wonderful that the Amish Store has sugar free chips. I have to order mine online, as our stores do not carry them.
Do you have a WalMart near you? I found Hersheys Sugar Free chocolate chips there.
Judy, I live in probably the only town without a Walmart, lol. We do have them at our Target though!
These cookies are the best Paleo cookies I’ve made!! I even forgot to add the molasses and they were still amazing. Thank you so much for this recipe.
Jennifer, Thank you so much for trying the recipe, and taking the time to leave such a kind comment! I really appreciate it & I’m so thrilled to hear they were still yummy without the molasses.
We’ve been looking for a great chocolate chip cookie recipe! These look great and simple – excited to try them out! Thanks!
Thank you so much Megha. I went to check out your site 🙂
Wow! You really nailed this recipe. I flattened the cookies a little while they were baking and used unsweetened chocolate I had kickin around in the pantry. The texture is a mix between rich, crumbly butter cookie and coconut shortbread. Thanks so much, 10/10 for sure!
Nicole, thank you so much for trying the recipe and taking the time to leave such a nice comment. You’re very kind 🙂
These are yummy! Let cool for at least 25 minutes? Yeah, that doesn’t happen in my house! They barely got 5! But it’s a good sized batch, so there should be some left at the 25 minute mark so I can see what they’re supposed to be like!
Wendy, I must admit that I always eat one before they cool, lol. They are more solid once they cool and taste even better the next day. I know warm cookies are impossible to resist 🙂
I have made quite a few low carb cookies and was excited to try this one because the others were kinda lame. Made these Saturday and they are the BEST EVER! I think molasses is the key! They tase just like regular chocolate chip cookies. Thanks for the recipe this is definitely a keeper!
Hi Luke, I am thrilled to hear this! I think the molasses is the key as well. Thank you for making the recipe and taking the time to write a very kind comment 🙂
Hi Stacey, This may seem like a silly question…but I love how you have the cookies stacked in the picture with the paper in between the cookies. What did you use and where did you get them? Did you cut your own from parchment? These look amazing..I am making these as part of a dessert display for a wedding. The bride will LOVE these..she is paleo all the way.
Hi Lynn, It’s not a silly question at all! And your right, I did cut up parchment paper into cookie size squares and would stack the squares between each cookie. The white parchment paper makes them show up better in photos, since they are all the same color. A Paleo wedding should be fun and challenging for the food. I’m thrilled the cookies will be in on it.
Please add a “pin this” button on your recipes. Would make it so much easier to save. Can’t wait to try these! Thanks
Lynde, there is a Pin button on the side of post and one pops up every time you hover on a picture, in the left hand corner of photo.
Can you substitute honey for the molasses?
Hi Barbara, I would think you could. I just really like the flavor of the molasses.
I made these tonight and they came out fantastically! I used splenda and i’m about to be using Eryithrol (i know i spelled that totally wrong) anywho! I made my mom love these cookies as well and she’s not a fan of dark chocolate! i used an 85% dark chocolate lindt bar it was delicious! thank you so much for a wonderful recipe i will be making for ever!
Hi Heather, I’m so thrilled that they were a hit, and that the other sweetener worked out. Lol, I misspell that one often, and auto correct does not recognize it, so I have to keep looking it up. 🙂
Will it Make a difference in the texture and taste if i don’t use molasses?
Lisa, the texture will be the same, but they taste a little better with the molasses.
First batch came out of the oven. Couldn’t wait for them to cool for 25 mins. They tasted yummy. Didn’t put the optional 1/8 salt but should have. I did do 1/3 Swerve and 1/3 Sukrin BS to equal the 2/3 sweetener. I will be making these again. These are a keeper.
Kapu, Thank you so much for trying the recipe 🙂 I need to figure out what Sukin BS is.
Here is the website
http://sukrinusa.com/
Made ice cream sandwiches with them also. Perfect with the Halo Top ice cream.
Thank you Kapu 🙂 I keep looking for Halo Top in the stores we have, but have not found it yet. I think my city is slow to pick up new products.
Uh oh mine have spread out and filled the whole cookie sheet :/ followed directions . Should I have put the tough in the fridge to firm up at all?? Suggestions please
Jennifer, the butter needs to be cold. If you live in a warm climate and the butter was not firm and cold then putting the dough in the freezer for 20 minutes will help with spreading.
Are these a chewy, cakey, crispy, or crisp-edges chewy-middle kind of cookie? They look good and I’m looking forward to trying them, but I want to know what to expect. =)
Gloria, They are the crisp edges chewy-middle kind I believe.
Mine turned out cake like, just skipped the molasses to keep the carb count down. I’ll try the brown sugar swerve next time like suggested in one of the comments.
what is the carb count without the molasses? i’m about to try this recipe and will probably skip it as well…MATH.
Hi Melisa, The molasses is a small amount spread out over 2 dozen cookies. It olny adds a trivial amount of carbs per cookie. I put it in the nutrition calculating software and the net carb amount per cookie came out to almost the same without it. It would still be about 1.9g to 2g net carbs per cookie.
I have made these twice in the last three weeks. They are absolutely amazing! They are so easy and taste fantastic!! Thanks so much for sharing this recipe =)
Crystal, Thank you 🙂 I love hearing that. You are very kind!
These were delicious! By far, my favorite low-carb cookie recipe 🙂
Thank you Heather for your kind words 🙂 Made my day!
