These sugar-free oatmeal cookies have a perfect cookie texture. With a touch of cinnamon they’re one of the best tasting low carb keto cookies around. Diabetic oatmeal cookies!

These sugar-free oatmeal cookies are perfect for your low carb keto diet!

If you’re on a low carb diet keto diet, then you know low carb cookies are generally a disappointment. While it’s possible to get a crispy cookie texture with some recipes, the dough is temperamental at best. And achieving that tender cookie bite is nigh impossible.

Luckily, we have many crispy low carb Peanut Butter Cookie recipes and several variations on cream cheese cookies. My Chocolate Cookies with Sesame Seeds are especially nice, with the taste of brownies and the tender-crisp bite of a traditional cookie.

My Favorite Sugar-free Low Carb Oatmeal Cookies!

I’m very happy with these sugar-free oatmeal cookies. While there are no actual oats in the cookies, the sliced or flaked almonds do a nice job of mimicking the look and texture of the real thing. The texture is crunchy and tender with a little “chew”, which is lacking in most low carb cookies.

This isn’t the first time I’ve used sliced or flaked almonds as an oat substitute. I often use them in my low carb granola recipes like this Really Good Low Carb Granola. Chopped sliced almonds will fool anyone in these Low Carb Chewy Granola Bars.

Powdered gelatin gives these “oatmeal cookies” their characteristic texture. We can thank Carolyn Ketchum for this nifty enhancement. She employs the use of gelatin in her recipe for Chewy Ginger Molasses Cookies. Carolyn furthers the advancement of low carb goodies every week on her blog.

How to Make Sugar-Free Oatmeal Cookies

This particular sugar-free cookie recipe calls for almond flour and flaked or sliced almonds. A little oat fiber gives the cookies a nice texture and a flour-like taste. In a pinch, you can sub coconut flour, but the oat fiber is nicer. Butter, sugar-free sweetener, vanilla, baking soda, salt, and an egg, round out the recipe.

Cream the butter, sweetener and vanilla just like you would in a traditional oatmeal cookie recipe. I used Sukrin Gold, my favorite brown sugar substitute, but my recipe for Homemade Brown Sugar Substitute works, too! Beat in the dry ingredients, then the egg, then fold in the almonds.

NOTE: I found that using 4 oz of chopped almond flakes results in a flatter, wider cookie, while 5 oz yields a higher cookie with a smaller diameter. I liked them both ways.

Drop the dough onto a parchment lined cookie sheet and bake. Using a cookie scoop helps with even portioning.

Take the cookies out halfway through baking and firmly tap the try on the stove top or the counter a few times to force the cookies to flatten. Gently hit the cookies with a spatula after removing the tray from the oven.

Let cool several minutes on the pan before removing them to a cooling rack.

Why You Need To Make These Sugar-Free “Oatmeal” Cookies

Besides the fact that these oatmeal cookies taste great… The are also made without sugar, they are very low in carbohydrates. In fact, they are so low in sugars and carbs, I think they are the perfect diabetic oatmeal cookies!

Total Time: 29 minutes
Servings: 20
Calories: 119kcal

Ingredients

Cream Together

  • 4 oz unsalted butter, softened (113 g)
  • 1/3 cup Low carb brown sugar (50 g)(or use my homemade brown sugar sub)
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract

Whisk Together

  • 1 cup almond flour (95 g)
  • 2 tbsp oat fiber (10 g)
  • 2 tsp grass-fed beef gelatin
  • 3/4 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/4 tsp baking soda
  • 1/4 tsp salt

Add Last

  • 1 large egg, cold (room temp. if you want cookies to spread more)
  • 1 1/2 cups sliced almonds (5 oz/142 g)

Instructions

Preparation:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F and place rack into the middle position. Line a sheet pan with parchment. Chop sliced almonds in a food processor or by hand to resemble the size of oats. Measure the dry ingredients together and whisk to remove any lumps.

Method:

  • Cream softened butter, Sukrin Gold, and vanilla extract together until light and fluffy - about 1 1/2 minutes. Scrape down the bowl.
  • Add all of the dry ingredients at once and beat until combined. Add the egg and beat until combined. Fold in the chopped sliced almonds.

Bake:

  • Using a 2 tbsp cookie scoop, scoop the dough and place two inches apart on the cookie sheet.
  • Bake 8 minutes, remove from the oven and gently bang the cookie sheet on the stove or counter to force cookies to flatten - about 6 times. Return to the oven for 6 minutes more. (see NOTES!)
  • Remove the cookies from the oven and lightly smack each cookie with the spatula. Let them cool for 5 minutes before removing to a cooling rack. Let the cookies cool completely before enjoying. 
  • Makes 20 cookies at 1.14 net carbs each. For a flatter, softer cookie see NOTES.

Storage:

  • Store in an airtight container on the counter or in the fridge. They will be crispier if refrigerated and softer if kept on the counter. 

Notes:

  • 1. These cookies are lightly sweetened. If you want them sweeter add more Sukrin Gold (2 tbsp) or add a little stevia glycerite (1/4 tsp) and taste. 2. All ovens are different and baking temps and/or times may need to be adjusted. If you have a wall oven, you might want to cook at 325 degrees F. The cookies might have to go a little longer if you do. 3. Be careful not to pack the almond flour and oat fiber. Packing ingredients leads to using more and can result in dry baked goods. 4. For a flatter, softer cookie use 4 oz of sliced almonds instead of 5 ounces and bake for slightly less time. Also use a room temperature egg instead of a cold egg. 5. Ingredient substitutions may affect texture, moisture content, and cooking time.

    I have made several of your cookie recipes. They are the closest to “normal” cookies. We like our cookies sweeter than you. How could I add more sweetness without messing up recipes?

      Hi Andrea. I’m glad you like the cookie recipes. You can add more sweetness by adding pure monk fruit powder or some stevia glycerite. Pure monk fruit powder is expensive for it’s size, but it is so concentrated that it will last years. The serving size is 1/32 of a teaspoon. Use 1-3 servings per your taste. If you love stevia glycerite like I do, add an additional 1/4-1/2 teaspoon per taste. My only caution is with chocolate flavored recipes. For some reason the bitter compounds in chocolate and those in monk fruit and stevia magnify. If you use too much stevia or monk fruit with chocolate, it will become bitter. The glycerine in the stevia glycerite helps lessen the effect, but it can happen. Coconut oil is naturally sweet, so you can replace coconut oil for melted butter in most low carb baking recipes. I hope these ideas help. -Kim

          Hi Bri. Look up oat fiber on Amazon. I did see some available last week when another person mentioned that the brand I linked to on Amazon was back ordered. I mentioned that she could try coconut fiber but that it wouldn’t be the same. Try 1 tbsp of coconut flour. I did test coconut flour in the recipe but the oat fiber tasted better and of course I can’t remember the amount I used during testing. It was a few years ago. Enjoy the cookies. -Kim

    These turned out amazing!! Fantastic overall flavor of a cinnamon oatmeal cookie! I’ve wanted to explore more recipes using oat fiber and gelatin, and this was perfect! I’m gluten free and dairy free, so I used vegan butter and cut the amount of butter by using some applesauce along with it (about 1/4 cup butter and 1/4 cup applesauce). I know that can change some of the texture profile, but I still love them. I totally want to use these to make healthier oatmeal cream pies next!

    Hi Kim.
    I have never worked with gelatin before so please forgive a stupid question. I have looked up how to use it, and it says you dissolve the powder into liquid. ! tsp to 2 or 3 cups of water/whatever. For this recipe, all I need is 2 tsp of gelatin. Does that mean 2 tsp of the powder thrown in undissolved, or does it mean I prepare the gelatin, dissolved in water, and then use 2 tsp of that? I am assuming I just use 2 tsp of the powder, undissolved, because the liquid isn’t mentioned, but I’d like to make certain before trying the recipe.

      Great question, Heather. Use the powdered gelatin as-is (undissolved). It will absorb some of the moisture in the batter and help bind the ingredients creating a little “chew”. The cookies are best when completely cooled. Enjoy the cookies. -Kim

        Hi Marie. I’m glad you like the cookies. They are my favorite. I just want to mention to anyone who many read this to NOT sub gelatin and xanthan gum 1:1. I would only add 1/4-1/2 a teaspoon. The texture will be a little different with the sub, but they will still be good. The gelatin adds a chewiness while xanthan gum binds the ingredients. I use them both, but often for different effect in my cookie recipes.

        Thanks for coming back to leave your kind and helpful comment, Marie. Be well. -Kim

    Wow! I just took my first batch out of the oven and these might be the best treat I’ve made in the last year since I’ve been keto. Thank you so much! I made a few substitutions: I used the sweetener mix from Joy Filled Eats because I’m very sensitive to the cooking effect of erythritrol; then I subbed chopped pecans for all of the chopped almonds and added 85 grams of Choc Zero White Chocolate Chips. Because my sweetener blend contains xylitol I’m not sure how well the cookies will harden but we like our cookies frozen anyway! 10 minutes out of the oven they are very soft but hold together with slightly crisp edges and the flavor is out of this world. I bought gelatine and oat fiber just for this recipe and it was absolutely worth it, but after this success I’m looking forward to trying more recipes with these ingredients!

    Delish!! I realized after I started mixing that I didn’t have any gelatin on hand. Didn’t want to get dressed and go to the store, so I used Xanthan Gum. Also didn’t have quite enough almonds so I added chopped pecans. They turned out FABULOUS….despite the fact that I completed misread the recipe and used baking powder instead of baking soda. I’m so used to grabbing baking powder out of the cabinet. Didn’t even realize it reads “soda” until I was reading through comments while they were in the oven. Although I’m not sure they can BE any better, I’ll make sure I have all the correct ingredients on hand next time. Thanks for sharing your recipe!!! Oh yeah, almost forgot to mention that I added some Lily’s Chocolate Chips. Mmmmm!

      Hi April, I have not tried this recipe with collagen so I’m not sure how it would affect the texture of the cookie. I do know that collagen and gelatin have different properties so I would guess that you wouldn’t get the chew and binding action of gelatin if you used collagen.

      To make brown sugar, add 1-2 tbsp of black strap molasses to one cup of sugar, so 1-2 teaspoons may have been more appropriate. I have a recipe for homemade brown sugar substitute on the site. It works in this recipe.

      Thanks for sharing your subs. -Kim

    I know it works but just wonder about the 1/4 ts of baking soda, don’t most ask for powder?
    Why soda and doesn’t it have to be activated?

    These ‘oatmeal’ cookies were yesterday’s baking project, and they were super easy. My husband wanted ‘cookies with raisins’, so I made about 8 cookies without raisins (for me) and 25 with raisins for him. My cookie scoop is a bit smaller than recommended, so my macros were all reduced proportionately.

    Once they had cooled completely, I took one outside for him to try and, after popping the cookie in his mouth, he declared “I’ve been trying them”. Sure enough, he’d already eaten 2 before they cooled. Next time I’ll increase the Sukrin Gold just a bit, but the texture was amazingly similar to ‘real’ oatmeal cookies.

    This recipe is a keeper. Got to keep hubby happy!

    I really like these. Luckily I had all the ingredients on hand and made them last night. I did use a tsp. Of molasses with erythritol for the brown sugar substitute. Now, I will say that they don’t taste like oatmeal as much as they do look like it. Since I don’t know of any way to make them taste more oatmealy I might try some other flavourings in the future like adding apple pie or pumpkin pie spices. Anyway thank you very much for this well thought out and very tasty recipe . And if anyone is wondering, chopping the almonds by hand worked out fine.

      Hi Anne. I’m glad you like the cookies! I THINK my scoop is a 2 tbsp scoop. I got 20 cookies out of the recipe. It could have been a difference on how finely chopped the almonds were and/or how firmly the dough was packed into the scoop. I didn’t pack it in, I just scooped and carefully leveled. Thanks so much for your feedback. -Kim

    I was reading about your oatmeal cookies and it mentioned baking powder, but it was not listed in the ingredients. Should baking powder be used, and if so, how much?

      Susan, thank you so much for letting me know there was an error. That was supposed to be baking soda and I added it to the recipe where it was missing. I really appreciate your catching it. Have a nice day. -Kim

    Hi there, I’m a vegetarian so what could I use instead of beef gelatin?

      Hi Lyndsay, you could try using 1/4 tsp of xanthan gum, but I didn’t test it in the recipe. The xanthan gum should help to bind the ingredients. -Kim

    These look so good but I have a question. I don’t have beef gelatin but I have regular sugar free plain gelatin. Can I substitute this for the beef gelatin?

      Hi Michelle, you can use regular gelatin. I just didn’t have any at the time. Enjoy the cookies. -Kim

    I love cookies but my problem are the sugar cravings that come next. I really like the idea that these are sugar free. I’m definitely going to try this out! Thank you for sharing

    I make a cookie similar to this minus the gelatin, plus molasses flavoring. I love oat fiber. I put it in everything for added flavor depth. Any initial thoughts on soluble corn fiber? I am seeing it in a lot of low carb items in the stores.

      Good question about the soluble corn fiber. I did look into it several years ago. You can get it on Netrition.com and I’m sure Amazon. I haven’t worked with it. -Kim

        I tried the recipe with a few modifications: I used half hazelnut/half almond, stevia/molasses flavoring, and added walnuts. The flavor profile was on point. I think it is the slivered almonds but something brought out a raisin-like tart flavor.
        Walnuts were yum. Cookies were crumbly because I used stevia but no regrets I can fix that next time.

    These are amazing! I couldn’t believe the taste – they tasted like oatmeal cookies to me. One of the best cookies I’ve had in a while. Thank you.

    I have no reason to avoid oatmeal. Can there be made with oatmeal instead of almonds?

      Hi Cheryl. This recipe was specifically developed to use the sliced almonds. Using real oats will result in a very dry cookie. -Kim
