These little amaretti cookies are delicate and sweet. Each one is soft and full of almond and fruity flavors. This recipe uses strawberry jam, but you can use any flavor sugar free jam you’d like. My favorite brand to look for is the Polaner with added fiber (as this is usually the lowest carb option). They’re the perfect keto dessert or snack to make for the spring time that’s upcoming. Make sure you don’t miss out!
These cookies are great to give as gifts, too. Add them as a part of a gift basket since they’re so beautiful and festive, everyone will be thrilled – especially if they’re keto. As an added bonus, they’re only 89 calories and 1.17 net carbs each, so you can indulge quite heavily with them! There’s never anything wrong with that!
