Ingredients You’ll Need
Let’s make a quick shopping list for our delightful cookie adventure. Here’s what you’ll need:
- 2 tazas de harina de almendra: This is where we get that nutty flavor, and let’s be real, they wouldn’t be galletas de almendra without it.
- 1/2 cucharadita de polvo de hornear: The magic ingredient that makes your cookies rise like the glorious pastries they are meant to be.
- 1/2 cucharadita de sal: Yes, a little salt goes a long way here, trust me.
- 3 huevos grandes: The more the merrier, or in this case, the more eggy the better!
- 1/4 taza de mantequilla derretida: Because butter makes everything better. Period.
- 1 cucharadita de ajo en polvo (opcional): This is for those who are feeling adventurous and want to add a savory punch—not your typical cookie flavor but hey, go wild.
- 1 cucharadita de hierbas secas (opcional): These cookies can be your savory dream if you want to throw in some dried Italian herbs. Life is about choices, my friend.
Step-by-Step Instructions
Ready to conquer the kitchen? Here’s how to make your galletas de almendra keto. Get your apron on; we’re diving in.
- Precalentar el horno a 180°C (350°F) y forrar una bandeja para hornear con papel pergamino. Yes, preheating is key—don’t skip this, or your cookies might throw a tantrum.
- En un tazón grande, mezclar la harina de almendra, el polvo de hornear, la sal y las hierbas (si se usan). Mix it like you mean it; this is your dry party.
- En otro tazón, batir los huevos y luego añadir la mantequilla derretida y el ajo en polvo (si se usa). Yep, it’s getting a little saucy in this bowl.
- Agregar los ingredientes húmedos a los ingredientes secos y mezclar hasta obtener una masa homogénea. Don’t overthink it—just stir until they’re best friends.
- Con una cuchara, formar pequeñas bolas de masa y colocarlas en la bandeja para hornear, aplastándolas ligeramente. Don’t worry about them looking perfect; they are homemade cookies after all.
- Hornear durante 12-15 minutos o hasta que estén doradas. The aroma will have you drooling in anticipation.
- Dejar enfriar ligeramente antes de servir. I know it’s tough, but patience is a virtue, even in cookie land.

Common Mistakes to Avoid
Okay, time for some real talk. Here are some rookie mistakes you definitely want to avoid:
- Thinking you don’t need to preheat the oven—rookie mistake. Never underestimate the power of a hot oven. Your cookies will be sad and undercooked otherwise.
- Skipping the parchment paper—trust me, the sticky situation that will ensue is not worth it.
- Not measuring ingredients properly—this isn’t a guessing game. Grab that measuring cup and get it right.
- Overmixing the dough—do not panic! Just mix until combined. Remember, you are not making bread.
- Getting distracted during baking—Instagram can wait. Do not let your cookies burn because you couldn’t resist scrolling.
Alternatives & Substitutions
Now you might be wondering if you can play around with these ingredients. Here are a few swaps if you’re feeling creative:
- Harina de almendra: You could use other nut flours if almond isn’t your jam, but then they wouldn’t be galletas de almendra, right? Perhaps try hazelnut flour if you’re in the mood.
- Mantequilla: If you’re trying to keep dairy out of your diet, coconut oil is a solid alternative. Just don’t expect the same buttery flavor.
- Huevos: You can use flax eggs if you’re vegan. Just combine 1 tablespoon of ground flaxseed with 3 tablespoons of water and let it sit for a few minutes.
- Ajo en polvo y hierbas secas: These are completely optional. You can toss in whatever seasoning gets your culinary juices flowing.
FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions)
Before we wrap this up, let’s tackle some burning questions you might have:
Can I use margarine instead of butter?
Well, technically yes but why hurt your soul like that? Butter is the real MVP, my friend.
How should I store these cookies?
Keep them in an airtight container at room temperature. They usually last about a week… if you can resist them that long.
Can I freeze the dough?
You bet! Just scoop the balls of dough and freeze them on a baking sheet. Once frozen, transfer them to a bag and pop them back in the freezer. You can bake them straight from the freezer—no waiting required.
What if I don’t have almond flour?
Panic not! You could try coconut flour, but use less—it’s a thirsty little thing.
Are they really keto?
Absolutely! Low in carbs and high in healthy fats. They’re like a health snack wearing a dessert disguise.
Can I add chocolate chips?
Why not? Chocolate and almond are like peanut butter and jelly. Just make sure they’re keto-friendly chips.
How do I know when they are done baking?
They should be golden brown on the edges and slightly soft in the middle. They’ll firm up once they cool down.
