About This Recipe
These Keto Cinnamon Sugar “Snowflake” Cookie Bites are the ultimate low-carb holiday treat—soft, buttery, lightly sweet, and coated in a warm cinnamon “sugar” mixture that tastes like pure Christmas. Inspired by classic holiday cookies, these bite-sized treats offer the same melt-in-your-mouth texture but without any of the carbs or sugar. They’re simple to make, require no complicated techniques, and always look beautiful on a holiday dessert tray.
The dough is made from almond flour, butter, vanilla, and powdered sweetener, giving each bite a tender shortbread-style texture. A touch of cinnamon in the dough adds extra warmth. Once baked, the cookie bites are rolled in a cinnamon sweetener mixture that mimics classic cinnamon sugar while staying 100% keto-friendly. This coating not only adds flavor but gives the cookies their signature “snowflake” look—light, powdery, and festive.
These cookies are perfect for gifting, storing in holiday tins, or enjoying with a warm winter drink. They stay soft for days, freeze beautifully, and travel well, making them great for parties or pre-prepped dessert platters. Because the cookies are small, portion-controlled, and made entirely from keto ingredients, they satisfy holiday cravings without derailing your diet.
If you love cinnamon, cozy baking, or holiday treats that feel nostalgic but stay low-carb, these snowflake cookie bites will become an instant December favorite. They’re simple, elegant, and festive—ideal for anyone who wants a holiday cookie that fits perfectly into a keto lifestyle.
