Single Serve Keto Cookie Recipe
We love our healthy keto cookie recipes here. We’ve had keto M &M cookies, keto strawberry cookies, and keto raspberry cookies.
As the weather is slowly warming up, it’s time to give the ovens a rest and make a healthy no bake cookie recipe…single serving style!
To say this recipe is foolproof is an understatement- It takes less than 10 minutes to prepare and the hard part is waiting for it to firm up. It’s thick, soft and chewy, and can include a bunch of mix-ins!
Not only is this no bake cookies keto and low carb, but it’s also paleo, vegan, gluten-free and dairy-free!
Single Serving Keto Cookie Ingredients
Coconut Flour
Coconut flour helps hold the cookie together, along with giving it a doughy and soft texture.
Almond Flour
I used blanched almond flour, as it provides a lighter flavor and texture. Almond meal can be substituted, but the cookie will be darker and slightly more gritty.
Granulated Sweetener of Choice
Any keto granulated sweetener of choice will work, and I prefer using monk fruit sweetener.
Almond Butter (and substitutions!)
Using almond butter will provide a subtle nutty flavor, without being overpowering. You can substitute it with cashew butter or peanut butter (no longer be paleo friendly).
Nut-free substitutions like sunflower seed butter and tahini also work great.
Keto Maple Syrup (and substitutions!)
A sticky keto sweetener is needed to form the cookie into a soft and chewy one! I used keto maple syrup, which holds the cookie very well, minus the carbs, sugar, and calories.
If you don’t follow a strict ketogenic diet, you can use maple syrup or agave nectar.
Milk of choice
Use any milk of choice to shape the cookie together. Start with a tablespoon and continue adding more if needed.
Add-ins of choice
Have fun adding your favorite cookie ingredients into it, like nuts, seeds, chocolate chips and more!
How to make a single serving no bake keto cookie

Can you bake the keto no bake cookie?
I have tried baking this cookie, and honestly, was not the biggest fan of it. It didn’t hold up very well, and would not keep well after several hours.
You could microwave it slightly if you want a warmer cookie, but only if you intend to enjoy it immediately.
Can you freeze giant keto no bake cookies?
Single serving keto cookies can be frozen to be enjoyed later. Prepare as many as you choose (I am for 5, one for each day of the week!) and place each one in parchment paper. Place them in a ziplock bag and freeze!
To enjoy from the freeze, keto single serve cookies should be thawed overnight in the refrigerator.

Nutrition
You and your giant cookies. Me personally, I like to double fist it.
I don’t really know much about Paleo, although I believe grains and maybe even my beloved white potatoes are out, and I’m out with any diet which has restrictions. It’s just not my speed.
No dice then 🙂 but these cookies are epic!
I LOVE TOFU! Hahahaha, I eat a lot of meat free meals, but if I had to replace meat in a dish, it would be either tofu, eggs, Greek yogurt or beans! I have to try making this Paleo cookie!
Please do, Cassie!
Do you have any idea what the nutritional content is of these giant cookies?
Hi Leah! If you add the nutritional information into a calorie calculator, it will provide it for you 🙂 Enjoy!
Okay this cookie is officially my favorite recipe on this site…or maybe my favorite dessert in general right now. So good! I only tweaked it a little and use 3T almond flour and 1T coconut flour.
What kind of granulated sweetener did you use? Thanks!
Hi Tonia! I’ve used coconut palm sugar and monk fruit sweetener before- Others have had good results using truvia too!
I can’t have refined sugar. Can you make these with maple syrup or honey instead of granulated sugar? If so, would you use equal amounts? These cookies look great.
Hi Susan! Definitely omit the sugar- What you can do is, taste the batter- If it’s not sweet enough, add a tablespoon or so of either honey or maple syrup (before you add the dairy free milk).
So good! Couldn’t wait so I didn’t put it in the fridge but it was still yummy. I halved all the sweeteners and thought it was perfect.
Oh fantastic- Thanks so much for the feedback, Andrea!
This turns into more like cookie dough for me… and I absolutely love it!
Oh perfect! Glad you enjoyed it, Michelle! 🙂
Do you have to keep these refrigerated? I’m flying (going on a trip) would love to bring these. Thanks!
Hi Suzanne! If you freeze it prior, just remove the day of and wrap up and it should be fine- I always make these for short distance flights and they thaw out beautifully 🙂
What does ‘T’ mean? I am assuming it would be cups but not heard of T as a measurement. Thanks
Hi Rachel! It stands for tablespoon 🙂 Enjoy!
