Tried these as my first "from scratch" recipe since opting for the Keto diet.
Little too much baking powder i think because they're alot bigger than i was aiming for but they taste great!!
(Even if i do say so myself haha)
Thanks for the recipe, i've got a few more from you on my radar to try out so im hopeful they'll be just as tasty 😀
Stacey says
Thank you, Josh. I'm so glad you enjoyed them. I think that where I live the baked goods don't rise as high as other places. Thank you for trying the recipe even though they almost became muffins, lol
Cindy says
How many cookies are in a serving??
Stacey says
Hi Cindy, I put the serving and serving size info above the printable recipe card, as it only does serving size in weighed grams, which only helps those who weigh their food on a scale. "Servings: 24 cookies, Serving Size: 1 cookie" should be above the card.
Melissa says

Melissa, they bake for 10 to 15 minutes.
