Sweet, crunchy and portable, these keto no bake cookies are the perfect low carb treat. A quick and easy low carb cookie recipe that is sure to be spouse and kid approved. It doesn't get much easier than three steps: just mix, chill, and eat.
As a child, I remember a neighbor always making haystack cookies and it was always such a treat. Sometimes she made them with oatmeal and other times she made them with crunchy chow mein noodles. The chocolate butterscotch chow mein version was always my favorite, and since I only had them on special occasions, it always felt like an extra special treat. I can almost taste them right now.
How to Make Keto No Bake Cookies
With this low carb haystack no bake cookie recipe, I used unsweetened desiccated coconut to give it that familiar no bake cookie crunchy texture. If you can't find unsweetened dessicated coconut, you can buy unsweetened coconut flakes and pulse them in a high powered blender or a food processor to get the desired size.
'Tis the season for keto cookies
With fall rapidly approaching, people are already asking for low carb Christmas cookie recipes. Well, in my book, any low carb cookie recipe made around Christmas is a Christmas cookie. 🙂 That being said, here are a few of my favorite keto cookie recipes. Keto Flourless Chewy Double Chocolate Chip Cookies and Low Carb Chocolate Peanut Butter Bacon Cookies.
Another great thing about the low carb no bake cookies is that they don't use any egg like a traditional recipe. That makes them a great dessert option for those with egg allergies or intolerance.

Soooooo good!!!! I used monk fruit as my sweetener and chopped toasted pecans instead of the coconut (not a coconut fan)—AMAZING! Shared some with my Keto sisters at work and they had to have Kyndra’s recipe☺️ Thanks for another delicious recipe Kyndra!!!
Becky says
Love this recipe as is! I've also made a different version. Instead of the chocolate powder I put in jelly (no sugar, smuckers, sweetened with splenda) and flax seed, put in a little less sweetener. If I'm in a rush out the door in themorning, I'll grab a couple as breakfast. So good!,
Ann says

Sarah Walters says
Super easy to throw together and absolutely delicious! I only had chunky natural peanut butter, but the extra texture was nice! I wonder if just a tiny bit of sea salt on top would enhance it even more!?!
Every recipe of yours has turned out fabulous! Thank you!!!!
Peg says
My husband made these and served them with just a sprinkle of Maldon Salt Divine Any good salt would work They also taste great without salt
Kelli says
These are some of the best low carb cookies I've had. The only changes I made were to add Lilly's dark chocolate chips and pecan chips. One cookie is enough to satisfy my sweets cravings.
Opal says
Just made these and I love them. Only problem they are too good will be hard to limit the number I eat.
