Keto Coconut & Cream Cheese Cookies
SHARE: 
These Keto Coconut & Cream Cheese Cookies are made with coconut flour, so they are low-carb, Keto-friendly and gluten-free, too. Coconut flour has many health benefits. Coconut flour is gluten-free, it may promote good digestion, and it is rich in fiber and MCT (medium-chain triglycerides).
A half-cup of coconut flour contains roughly 11.6 grams of net carbs. It might sound high, but a half cup of coconut flour spread out among many servings ends up being very low carb.
