No-Bake Caramel Cookies That Are Keto-Friendly

What do you do when you are craving cookies while you are on the keto diet?  You make a batch that fits in your macros! 

These amazing cookies are low in carbs and have tons of sweet and salty flavor. The peanut butter will keep you feeling full and the sugar-free caramel syrup satiates your sweet tooth. 

In fact, these are as easy to make as my keto mug cheesecake – except this recipe makes enough for you to share with your family. This is such a kid-friendly snack that you should probably double the recipe – especially if your kids love cookies! 

Low-Carb No-Bake Peanut Butter Cookies 

There are only 5 simple ingredients in these cookies. They are so easy to make that you can make an entire batch for the week ahead. Then, you’ll have a sweet treat that you can nibble on whenever you are craving sugar. 

Best Keto No-Bake Caramel Cookies 

These are by far my favorite no-bake caramel cookies. The nuts add even more protein and a satisfying crunch too. Plus, the fat in the peanut butter will make you feel full. This helps you cut down on eating food just because you are bored. 

Plus, whenever you eat high-protein food like these cookies, you will have more energy on busy days. If you are running out the door and need something you can keep in your bag, make some keto granola bars! They are high in fiber and protein. 

Low-Carb Healthy Cookies 

Since this is a no-bake recipe, it’s perfect for warmer weather, when you really don’t want to use an oven. 

Did you know that pecans have essential fatty acids that your body needs when it is in ketosis? If you don’t like pecans, swap them out for your favorite chopped nuts. 

You can even use a different type of nut or seed butter. My favorite is natural almond butter or sunbutter. 

If you aren’t a fan of caramel sauce, melt some sugar-free white or dark chocolate chips instead. Then, drizzle the melted chocolate on top of the cookies. 

Another way to enjoy peanut butter as a dessert is to make keto peanut butter mousse – it’s light and delicious! 

How To Make No-Bake Cookies 

This recipe is so easy, that kids can help make them. 

The process is the same as other no-bake cookies. Just mix the ingredients, form the cookies, and then chill them so they set up! Trust me and place parchment paper on the baking sheet first. This way, the cookies won’t stick to the baking sheet. 

It took about 2 hours for the cookies to firm up in the freezer before I felt like they were ready – but you can certainly eat them at any point.

Another super-easy dessert recipe you can make with your kids is keto chocolate cheesecake. It’s a decadent treat that is low in carbs. 

How To Store No-Bake Cookies 

If you store them at room temperature, they might soften or even melt. I suggest storing them in an airtight container in the refrigerator. They will stay fresh for up to a week.
