Cook Time 20 minutes
Total Time 35 minutes
Servings: 12 servings

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup fine almond flour
  • 2 tablespoons coconut flour
  • 3 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon (plus a pinch more for sprinkling)
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt
  • 1/2 cup granular erythritol or monk fruit blend (adjust to taste)
  • 2 large eggs, room temperature
  • 3 tablespoons melted unsalted butter (or coconut oil)
  • 2 ounces cream cheese, softened
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 tablespoons heavy cream (or unsweetened almond milk)
  • Optional chocolate drizzle: 1/3 cup sugar-free chocolate chips + 1 teaspoon coconut oil
  • Optional cinnamon “sugar” topping: 1 tablespoon erythritol + 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon

Method
 

  1. Preheat and prep: Heat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Mix dry ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk almond flour, coconut flour, cocoa powder, cinnamon, baking powder, salt, and sweetener until no lumps remain.
  3. Blend wet ingredients: In a separate bowl, beat eggs, melted butter, cream cheese, vanilla, and heavy cream until smooth and creamy.
  4. Combine: Add the dry mix to the wet mixture. Stir until a soft dough forms. It should be scoopable and slightly sticky.
  5. Adjust texture if needed: If too dry, add 1 more tablespoon of cream. If too sticky, sprinkle in 1 to 2 teaspoons of coconut flour.
  6. Shape the bites: Scoop about 1 tablespoon of dough per bite. Roll gently into balls and place on the baking sheet, spacing slightly apart.
  7. Add cinnamon “sugar” (optional): Mix erythritol and cinnamon, then lightly sprinkle over each bite.
  8. Bake: Bake for 10–12 minutes. They should be set on the edges and slightly soft in the center. Avoid overbaking.
  9. Cool: Let the bites cool on the tray for 5 minutes, then transfer to a rack to cool completely. They firm up as they cool.
  10. Chocolate drizzle (optional): Melt sugar-free chocolate chips with coconut oil in the microwave in 20–30 second bursts, stirring until smooth. Drizzle over cooled bites and let set.
