Easy Keto Breakfast Cookie

Cookies for breakfast? Yes please! Easy low carb paleo recipes can be hard to come by, but this one is just the ticket. Each cookie is high in a healthy variety of fats, which can be a great start to your day. By eating a meal high in healthy fats at the beginning of the day, you can train your body to fuel itself with slow-burning calories instead of fast-burning carbohydrates. Net carbohydrates particularly are the carbs you want to avoid because these are the carbs without fiber (a.k.a. sugar). The only sweetener in this cookie is all-natural honey. The remaining ingredients are all low-carb and nutritious!

Other ingredients to add

Think of this paleo cookie as a base recipe. You can add other ingredients to alter the flavor to your liking. If you don’t like coconut, omit it and replace the crunchy texture with chopped almonds or pecans. Is it the holiday season? Replace the almond butter with pumpkin puree for a seasonal flavor.

Hemp heart health benefits

Hemp hearts are loaded with nutritional benefits. They’re most-liked for their richness in omega fatty acids. This can be really beneficial if you’re also vegetarian or vegan! Digesting omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids can reduce your risk for heart disease and help fat unhealthy cholesterol.

Storage and meal prepping

You can keep cooled cookies stored in a sealed Ziploc bag on your countertop for 3-4 days. They’ll keep longer if you store them in the refrigerator. They’ll last for 5-7 days. These breakfast cookies happen to taste great cold as well!
