Keto Scotchie Cookies
Soft and chewy oatmeal inspired scotchies are cinnamon-spiced, sweetened with brown natural sweetener, packed with natural fiber, and loaded with butterscotch chips.
With crisp edges and chewy centers, every bite is buttery, delicious, and packed with texture and flavor.
Butterscotch brings me right back to childhood eating. My mom always used butterscotch chips.
Pair that with cinnamon and these cookies scream nostalgia.
Every bite of this dessert is buttery and delicious making it perfect for parties, especially in the fall and winter.
No oatmeal was harmed in the making of these cookies, instead, multiple high fiber, low carb naturally occurring ingredients were used. I found all of my ingredients at Walmart, so hopefully, you will too!
A word on butter:
Room temperature butter is about 65°F (18°C), which is likely cooler than your kitchen.
So if your cookies are spreading too much, you’re probably softening your butter too much.
Good rule of thumb: set your butter out on the counter 1 hour before you begin.
If it gets too soft (use your finger to test), place back in the refrigerator for 10 minutes.
Don’t sabotage your efforts; make sure your butter is the correct consistency before you begin.
CJ’S FOLLOW-UP TASTE TEST
It was nice having these little cookies around the house as a keto friendly snack. Easy to make, and the entire family enjoyed them. The texture of them remained consistent even after several days. Enjoy!
