KETO OREO
Who doesn’t love separating the Oreo’s and dipping them in milk?
It is something that warms your heart to feel like a child again as you sit at the kitchen table and enjoy cookies and milk. So try this version instead of the scary trans-fats and high fructose corn syrup in real Oreo’s. What is in that filling anyway? Yikes.
Keto Oreo Recipe:
1/2 cup vanilla whey or egg white protein
3/4 cup peanut flour (or almond flour)
1/4 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp Celtic sea salt
1/4 cup butter or coconut oil
1/4 cup Allulose (or Swerve)
1 tsp stevia glycerite
4 TBS cocoa powder
2-4 TBS water(just enough to hold dough together)
1/2 cup vanilla whey or egg white protein
3/4 cup peanut flour (or almond flour)
1/4 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp Celtic sea salt
1/4 cup butter or coconut oil
1/4 cup Allulose (or Swerve)
1 tsp stevia glycerite
4 TBS cocoa powder
2-4 TBS water(just enough to hold dough together)
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (200 degrees C). In a medium bowl, stir together the whey, peanut/almond flour, cocoa, baking soda and salt. Cut in the butter using a pastry blender or your fingers until the butter lumps are smaller than peas. Stir in the water and sweetener to form a stiff dough. On a cookie sheet, place 1/4 inch balls 2 inches apart. Flatten balls into circles (I used a measuring cup). Bake for 10-12 minutes in the preheated oven, until edges are lightly browned. Cool in oven to crisp up.
FILLING:
8 oz cream cheese (or Kite Hill brand if dairy free)
2 TBS unsweetened vanilla almond milk
4 TBS Allulose (or a few drops of stevia)

love this recipe! super easy and fun 🙂 i have soy flour that i’ve been looking to use which would prob work too although it would probably lose the almond-y part of it..
Thanks Julie! I wolds stay away from soy flour. Soy can change our estrogen levels. Soy is also hard on our thyroid. Almond flour is pure and not genetically modified. Happy baking;)
Look great! How many do you get from this recipe? Thanks!
I got 16 actually Oreos. So 32 small cookies.
I’m going to have to try this. I love oreos but don’t buy them.
Found this via a friend (Jamie S.), great site.
Another note about soy products, soy is typically a GMO crop – not only does it mess with estrogen levels and messes up the thyroid, it’s 3rd strike is most notably that a large part of soy grown in the U.S. (er, the world) is that it is heavily GMO.
I made these a the other night – fantastic! I came out with 12 cookies (24 individual cookies). They are so fun it was hard to eat just one of them, so I put what was left over in the freezer. Maria you make some of the best desserts!
Yeah! I’m so glad you liked them.
Tomorrow I am posting”nutter butters.” I liked them even more!
Did you know that Truvia is produced by Cargill? Did you know stevia couldn’t be sold as a sweetner (could only be labeled a nutritional supplement) until recently per the FDA. And now that the big boys finally want a piece of the action, stevia can be sold as a sweetner. I like to support the companies that had to suffer through the nutritional supplement labeling years.
Yes, I Am no longer using Truvia in my recipes. I actually never bought it, but so many people want options you can buy in the stores.
Thanks for your interest and kind words!;)
this looks so yummy! I have to make it soon!
btw I LOVE your recipes, so healthy, but decadent 🙂 you are an inspiration!
Thank you so much for your kind words!;)
They are tasty;)
Hey Maria! I’ve been browsing all over the blogosphere for this recipe! The best one yet in my list. I like this one because it’s healthy version of homemade oreos. Hence, “Healthified” Oreo Recipe, right? Thanks for sharing this one.
Thanks for your kind words! They taste great too!;)))
What about coconut sap for a sweetener?
Well, coconut sap does have some less harmful effects than sugar does, but it still increases insulin too much.
It has 10 calories vs 15 for sugar/tsp
3 carbs, 0 fiber vs 4.5 carbs, 0 fiber for sugar
Happy eating!
One of my favorite recipes.
Thank you!
Can Swerve be substituted for the stevia glycerite and Just Like Sugar?
I updated the recipe. I still at the stevia. It just makes a better overall taste. 🙂
Am I just reading this wrong? On the cookie part it says to stir in the almond milk and sweetener, but there isn’t almond milk listed in the ingredients. How much?!?
Sorry, meant water. I fixed it above. 🙂
Too cool, healthy Oreos!? lol I just ordered 3 of your books lastnight…amazing. Thanks so much Maria!
Thanks so much for your support! 🙂
okay so i made these tonight for my family…i had the version that still said to stir in the almond milk…well thats what i did, they still turned out good!!! next time i’ll just use the water… question tho…do you usually spray the cookie pan before putting them on? because alot of mine broke when trying to remove them…btw, this recipe was a HIT with the whole fam, unfortunately a little too much of a hit with myself because i had more then my share of a serving!!! HA!
Thanks! I didn’t spray my pan, but if yours were sticking you could try a little spray. Glad you liked them. 🙂
Omg this recipe is amazing!! I made it today and ate two as soon as they were done…Ooopss! I frose the rest so I can snack as I go. My co-worker made your choc chip cookies today as well, so we are doing a Maria cookie exchange. I never knew eating gluten free could taste so good. I am hooked 🙂
Thank you Megan! 🙂
Do these have to stay in the fridge or isit something i can put in my husbandslunch pail?
I would store in the fridge but it can easily go in the lunch pail for the day. 🙂
How long are they good for
They should last 2 weeks in fridge. Otherwise I store in freezer if I have a large batch and then they last a couple months. 🙂
Hi Maria – this is such a dumb question but I’m loving your site and all of your recipes so much I’m going to ask anyway! I can’t seem to locate vanilla whey or egg white powder so I made this yummy recipe a couple of days ago and used plain old powdered milk. Can you tell me how that compares nutritionally and otherwise? Which is the optimum choice overall? Thank you in advance!
There are more carbs in powdered milk than in protein powder. A good protein powder is much better for you. 😉
Hi Maria,
I am going hiking in Germany and scared I will have problems with food there. I looked around for powdered Almond Milk to take but can’t find that. I was thinking I could take that with Jay Robb whey powder and survive on that if need be. Do you have any suggestions for hikers on this kind of diet or know where I can get powdered almond milk? I may have to invest in a dehydrator and try to make some myself but that is very new to me.
Thanks, Anne
Hmm, I have never heard of any, no. I guess I would rely on water for liquids. There are some good portable option for food. We bring these salmon pouches on trips. They don’t have to be refrigerated. They also make olive pouches, etc.

These look so amazing! My kids are allergic to all nuts.. 🙁 so would it work with coconut flour and coconut milk?
Yes, but it isn’t a 1-1 conversion. This chart will help you convert. 🙂

Hi how can I use the unflavored whey for this?
Just add a little sweetener to taste. 🙂
