Keto Moon Pie

Keto baking can be as fun and creative as any other. Our Keto moon pie recipe takes a little extra time to prepare, but it's definitely worth it The result will blow your mind, and you'll regret not making more of these fantastic cookies! Please note that the preparation time includes the time necessary to dry out the marshmallows (we suggest preparing the marshmallow mixture the day before and having it ready for the cookies). Also, please remember that cookies can burn quickly, so keep an eye on them while baking. Once they're ready, you must cool them completely before touching them, as they will continue to firm up. Finally, assemble the cookies and dip each in some melted chocolate. Adding some coconut oil to the melted chocolate is a good idea – the chocolate will become silky and much easier to work with. Serve these fantastic cookies as a snack or a dessert. Enjoy!

What type of gelatin to use?

We recommend grass-fed gelatin. It's a healthier option, and you'll get a good dose of high-quality collagen.

Serving Suggestion

Another great idea is to microwave your moon pies for 15 seconds and serve them with a dollop of your favorite Keto ice cream.

  • Step 1

    First, prepare the marshmallows. Line a 33x23cm (13x9inch) pan with parchment paper. Have all your ingredients measured out and ready. Pour ¼ cup of cold water into a bowl. Sprinkle the gelatin in and mix thoroughly with a fork. Allow to bloom for 10 minutes.
    Step 1
  • Step 2

    Pour the remaining 1/3 cup of water into a saucepan. Add the allulose into the center. Stir well and add two slices of lemon. Bring to a boil over medium heat and cook for 2-3 minutes. Remove and discard the lemon slices.
    Step 2
  • Step 3

    You will have to work quickly at this point. Use a hand mixer to break up the gelatin, and then slowly add the hot syrup. Increase the speed to high and whisk for 15 minutes. Add the vanilla extract after about 10 minutes. The mixture should hold its shape well. Quickly pour the marshmallow mix into the prepared dish. Flatten the surface as evenly as possible and let it dry for at least 6 hours (preferably overnight).
    Step 3
  • Step 4

    Add the almond flour, xanthan gum, baking soda, and cinnamon to a bowl. Mix to combine. Optionally, adjust the amount of cinnamon according to your taste.

    Step 5
  • Step 6

    Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F). Line a large cookie sheet with parchment paper. Roll out the dough between two pieces of parchment paper until nice and thin. Cut into 5 cm (2-inch) rounds using a cookie cutter or a glass.

    Refrigerate again for 15 minutes. Gently transfer cookies to the prepared cookie sheet and bake for 8-10 minutes. When done, cool the cookies completely.

  • Step 9

    Assemble the cookies. Place one piece of marshmallow between two cookies. Place the cookie sandwiches on a cooling rack and set them aside.
    Step 9
