Some emerging research suggests that erythritol might increase the risk of blood clots, but more studies are needed to confirm this potential link. Whether you decide to use erythritol or not, remember that all sweeteners should be consumed in moderation, and your keto diet should primarily focus on nutritious whole foods.

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 325°F (162C). Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats or grease them with butter.
- In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment (or with a bowl and electric hand beater), cream the butter, brown erythritol and granulated erythritol on high speed until fluffy and well combined, about 2 minutes. Add the egg, maple syrup, and vanilla extract and mix on medium-high speed until combined, stopping and scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed, about 2 minutes.
- In a separate large mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, ground flaxseed, baking powder, shredded unsweetened coconut, and salt. Stir until combined.
- Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix until combined. Fold in the chocolate chips.
- Divide cookie dough into 18 rounded tablespoon-sized balls and place 8 balls of cookie dough on each of the prepared baking sheets at least 1½ inches apart.
- Bake until the cookies are browned on the bottom, 12 to 15 minutes. Let cool for at least 5 minutes.
