I love this recipe. I could eat at least ten in one sitting which is why I exchanged some butter with non-fat plain yogurt. They still taste great and I feel a lot better about eating so many.

Tips for Making Very Low Calorie Sugar Cookies

  • Use a sugar substitute: Sugar substitutes like erythritol, xylitol, or stevia can be used to replace sugar in the recipe, reducing the overall calorie count.
  • Use whole wheat flour: Whole wheat flour is a healthier alternative to all-purpose flour and provides more fiber and nutrients.
  • Add some protein powder: Protein powder can be added to the dough to boost the protein content and make the cookies more filling.
  • Use unsweetened almond milk: Unsweetened almond milk is a low-calorie alternative to regular milk and can be used to make the dough.
  • Bake the cookies for a shorter amount of time: Overbaking the cookies will make them dry and crumbly. Bake them for just until the edges are golden brown.

Conclusion

These very low calorie sugar cookies are a delicious and healthy treat that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. They are perfect for those who are watching their weight or who simply want to make healthier choices. With a few simple substitutions, you can enjoy all the flavor of traditional sugar cookies without the guilt. Remember that moderation is key.
