How to Make Low Carb Persimmon Cookies

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  3. Peel and stem 2 large persimmons. Process in a food processor or blender until smooth (about 1 cup of pulp).
  4. In a medium bowl, whisk together 1 ½ cups almond flour, ½ cup coconut flour, ½ teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg, ¼ teaspoon salt, and ½ cup granulated sugar substitute (erythritol or similar).
  5. In a separate bowl, beat 2 large eggs until light and fluffy. Stir in the persimmon pulp.
  6. Gently fold the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until just combined. Do not overmix.
  7. Drop by rounded tablespoons onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 2 inches between each cookie.
  8. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  9. Let cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
  10. Optional: Add ½ cup chocolate chips, chopped nuts, and/or ½ cup raisins to the batter before baking.
