Holiday Chocolate Walnut Cranberry Cookies

Holiday Chocolate Walnut Cranberry CookiesThis sweet treat is a keto and diabetic friendly option to more traditional holiday cookie fare. With coconut flour, unsweetened dark chocolate chips, and tart cranberries with a hint of cinnamon, you’ll loathe sharing these tasty cookies!

Since these are slightly more delicate than your average hard wheat flour-based cookies, make sure you line the baking sheet with some parchment paper, for ease of sliding the cookies off. Don’t be in too much of a hurry, let them cool thoroughly so they can get a chewy consistency!

Make sure you use organic ingredients to avoid accidentally ingesting chemicals that are terrible for your health.
