Hola a todos! Hope you are having a great day, week, start of the month and YEAR! We are just starting the year and I'm excited for the rest of the year, I can't wait to experience new situations, stepping out of my comfort zone.
I have been baking and creating new recipes, now that I finished with my university studies I've got more time to these blogposts since this is my passion and I love sharing them. And of course, my saucy genes (I'm Latina) are dragging me to create some Mexican inspired recipes as well!
While writing this recipe post as I'm listening to some latin music, and sipping on some coffee. Gotta set the mood and make our days enjoyable! And to make this moment extra enjoyable, I would highly recommend trying this delicious recipe!
These are the BEST Churro Cookies, no joke! As a traditional Mexican churro, these cookies are the perfect combination of a crispy crust and a soft inside. They are a dream! And they are going to fit any lifestyle!
- Paleo
- Low Carb
- Keto
- Dairy Free
One characteristic about Mexico is the colors so I added some colors to the cookies by using superfood powders from Suncore Foods, I'm obsessed! And of course, like any traditional churro is important to coat them with some sugar and cinnamon.
To keep things low carb, keto and delicious I used Lakanto Golden Monk Fruit (PURELYHL for discount), this is my staple for every recipe I share since it's a natural alternative that doesn't have a glycemic index or inflammatory effects.
To make these the best churro cookies I also added a touch of caramel, I used of course, Lakanto Caramel Syrup which is also keto and low carb!
Enjoy these cookies with a delicious black coffee if you are like me, or with a creamy latte (this is my favorite keto creamer), by themselves.
These are a crowd pleaser! And so does these recipes!
