The perfect amount of crunch and sweetness – with less than 1 carb per cookie!
Top off a satisfying keto meal with these easy keto coconut chocolate chip cookies! They’re just the right combination of a sweet flavor with the crunch and clever kick of coconut for a perfect low-carb dessert.
This recipe uses a mixture of coconut flakes, coconut oil, and coconut flour to bring down the carb count – and without tasting like you’re biting into a coconut. There’s just a hint of the fruit’s island-touched flavor in there.
Hip Tips:
- If you’re allergic to nuts, omit the walnuts, and the cookie will still hold up well – it just won’t have the crunch.
- You’ll see that the cookies release a bit of the coconut oil during cooking. You’ll leave that on the parchment when removing the cookies from the baking sheet.
- If you’re interested in making a bigger cookie (for chipwiches or the like), increase the cooking time by a minute or so, and adjust the nutritional count accordingly.

Try not to eat them all at once!
These cookies are insanely addictive – just one bite wasn’t enough for our tasters!
Try baking these EASY 3 ingredient peanut butter cookies, too!
Ok, I am not sure what I did wrong? First, the batter was very crumbly. It didn’t resemble anything like regular cookie dough batter. Maybe it’s not supposed to? But it didn’t look quite as ‘creamy’ as your picture either? Maybe I didn’t mix it long enough. I put the dough in the fridge to harden up a bit, but when I tried to scoop it out, it still was crumbly. So I took a sheet of wax paper, plopped the dough and rolled it out like a log, that I then sliced. I got 30 and tried to keep them evenly spaced. Of course, it was an oily mess when I took them out of the oven! However, I quickly put them on a cooling rack where and let them sit for about 10 minutes. Overall, the taste was OK. Felt like it was missing something (maybe salt?) and my husband said they tasted bitter. I used Swerve Confectioners. Can’t find Lilly’s chocolate, so I chopped up a Lindt 90% bar. Keto desserts sure are trial & error.
Darn sorry that turned out not as expected! Hmm unsure about the crumbly part…mine were creamier. Yep they are oily then dry firmer. the bitter taste was likely do to the unsweetened chocolate bar. The Lily’s are sweetened with stevia, so not bitter.
These cookies turned out delicious! The only thing I changed was instead of the 2 Tbls Swerve granulated, I used 1 Tbls of the granulated and 1 Tbls of the Swerve brown sugar. They have a nice soft, chewy consistency. I’ll definitely be making these again! Thank you!
Great! Thanks so much for sharing 👍
My cookies are swimming in melted coconut oil. Like a lake. Hoping the oil magically soaks in again or will be a waste of all that oil
Can you use the coconut oil that is not a white solid but a clear oil for this recipe???
Yes if your oil is clear – will work 👍
OMG so yummy!
Like eating the frosting for a German chocolate cake right out of the container. Eating just one is so hard!!
I was SHOCKED when all 3 of my kids loved them too (they claim coconut is yucky).
Hi Sarah! I’m so glad to hear that the whole family loved it! Thank you for the feedback❤
Eezy peezy and so deleezy❤️.
Since so much of the coconut oil is left on the pan, can’t we reduce the calorie count (so we can enjoy more cookies?)
Hi there! You could reduce the amount of oil used. They do release oil when baking and then dry like normal when cooled. Hope this is helpful!
It’s amazing how people had such different experiences. Mine released oil, but not “a lake,” and they’re delicious! I’ll definitely make again! (I sure didn’t get 36 cookies though. Mine weren’t big at all and I got 24.)
Hi Vicki! I’m so glad you enjoyed them. It is so interesting how one recipe can vary so much just by using different brand ingredients ❤
I think something in the ingredients is off — the dough is very fatty (like not in a bad way, but as far as baking goes); so much so that when these bake, the butter and coconut oil bake off and it turns into a mess in the oven. This either needs more flour or less oil/butter. (And, although it did make a huge mess, they still tasted amazing, but something is def off with the measurements!)
Thanks so much for your feedback on how these turned out for you, Lindsay. Sorry to hear they were messy, but super glad you still enjoyed them. You could possibly reduce the amount of oil just a bit for next time. Hope this helps!
