No, I didn’t make them itty-bitty to get the carb count down. I hate it when people do that. That being said, these are a good portion size too. They aren’t those ginormous cookies you can buy at the baker. Just a good sized cookie with great flavor and plenty of sweetness to get the job done. I guess you could call it a “full service cookie”
These are actually the same cookies we used for our Low Carb Peanut Butter Whoopies. Because they are just so good that they need their own little space on That’s Low Carb.
I’ll just let the photos do the talking…
HOW MANY NET CARBS IN A Keto Peanut Butter Cookie?Â
3 Net Carbs per peanut butter cookie. Yummmmmmmm.
If you’d like to use another form of sugar alcohol be sure to check out ourÂlow carb sweetener conversion chart. Our family does subtract the sugar alcohols and we’ll continue toÂprovide that sugar alcohol grams above the nutrition card below and you can decide for yourself if you want to follow that. ?
We are actually SUPER excited that we now have the option to add the sugar alcohols into our nutrition label! AH!!! We’ll continue with adding the total sugar alcohols in the recipe notes section AND in the nutrition label for the next couple weeks until we all get the hang of where to look.
If you are new to this Low Carb/Keto lifestyle and are unsure what we are talking about please feel free toÂread up more on Net Carbs.
This is all you need and I bet you’ve got all the ingredients sitting around to make! Cookie cravings are officially curbed. You’re welcome 🙂

Naomi says I doubled this and put the dough in large ramekins. Then topped with vanilla pudding and whipped cream topped with bananas. They are SOOOOOOO good!!!

Yummy recipe! Tried it and loved it!!! I omitted the stevia but followed the rest of the recipe and they cookies came out well. Thanks!

Is the stevia necessary? I dont have any

It helps with additional sweetness without using more sugar alcohol sweetener. You are welcome to use more of the sweetener to make them a bit more sweet, it really is a personal preference how sweet you’d like them to be. 🙂

This is not a recipe with 3 ingredients, but 5 and your carb count is incorrect. Total carbs per cookie is 12 minus fibre which is 2 and alcohol sugars which are 1 for a count of 9!net carbs. You don’t subtract protein grams when calculating carbs.

Mmmm not sure where you are getting that carb count.
It’s 12G Carbs – 1G Fiber – 8G Sugar Alcohol = 3 Net Carbs
… and not sure where you are getting 3 ingredients.. I don’t see anywhere where that is mentioned…

Would it work to use sugar in place of erythritol? The carb content is the same? Is erythritol better for you than sugar?
Reply
- Lindsay says
It’s definitely worth a try but your carb content WILL be different. Sugar is carb and erythritol is sugar alcohols so your body is processing it differently and the carb count will be rather different.
