Ingredients
Method
- Preheat the oven to 325ºF and line 2 cookie sheets with silicone mats or parchment paper. Set the oven racks to the second highest and second lowest positions in the oven.
- In a large bowl, beat the butter with the sweetener until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes on medium high. Beat in the eggs and vanilla until well combined.
- Add the almond flour, gelatin, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Beat until just mixed together. Stir in the coconut, pecans, and the chocolate chips.
- Form the dough into 2-inch balls and space at least 3 inches apart on the cookie sheets. Press the balls down with the heel of your hand to about 3/4 inch thick. These cookies will spread so give them room!
- Bake 15 to 20 minutes, until the edges are golden brown, switching the pans and rotating them halfway through. Let cool completely on the pans.
Notes
- For the chewiest Keto Cowboy Cookies, don't skip the grassfed gelatin! It makes a noticeable difference in texture. - Ensure your butter and eggs are at room temperature for a smooth, well-emulsified dough. - Listen for the gentle hiss of butter and sweetener creaming together, indicating it's light and fluffy, not just mixed. This aeration is key. - Store leftover cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days, or freeze for up to 2 months. Thaw at room temperature or warm briefly in the oven.
