    Chef's pro tip

    Ensure your peanut butter is at room temperature before blending it with the other ingredients. The mixing process becomes easier, and you will always get a smoother texture of the cookies.

    What to serve with this keto no bake coconut cookies?

    These coconut cookies taste great with keto tea or coffee. Alternatively, you can also enjoy them with these options:

    • Pumpkin Spice Latte: A sugar-free latte complements the nutty flavor of the cookies and adds a refreshing contrast.
    • Keto Cobbler: A fresh cobbler made of berries like strawberries or blueberries offers a tart, fruity balance to the sweet, nutty cookies.
    • Whipped cream: A dollop of sugar-free whipped cream on top can add a creamy texture and a visually appealing touch.

    Frequently asked questions

    Yes, you can include coconut in a keto diet. Coconut is low in carbs and high in healthy fats, making it a suitable choice for those following a low-carb lifestyle.

    If your dough feels too dry and isn't holding together, add more peanut butter or almond milk to bring it to the right consistency.

    Chill the cookies in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes before serving for a firmer texture.

    Regular maple syrup contains a higher sugar content, which is unsuitable for keto diets. So, we recommend sugar-free maple syrup or keto-friendly sweeteners only.

    The sea salt flakes add a contrast of flavor to the low-carb cookies. You can omit the sea salt if you want, but we suggest you try at least one cookie with salt. It tastes so good!

    Yes, you can freeze no-bake cookies. Once they have set and hardened, place them in an airtight container with layers separated by parchment paper. Freeze for up to 2-3 months.
