🥩 Carnivore Cookies (Zero-Carb)

🍳 Ingredients:

  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (or mozzarella for milder flavor)

  • 2 tbsp beef tallow or butter

  • 1 large egg

  • 2 tbsp pork rinds (crushed into powder) – acts as flour

  • 1–2 tbsp collagen powder (optional, for structure)

  • Pinch of salt (if your cheese isn’t salty enough)

  • Optional: dash of vanilla extract (only if you’re okay with trace carbs)

🧑‍🍳 Instructions:

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

  2. In a bowl, melt the cheese and tallow/butter together until fully combined (microwave ~30–45 seconds or stovetop).

  3. Stir in the egg until smooth.

  4. Add pork rind powder and optional collagen. Mix into a sticky dough.

  5. Scoop out tablespoon-sized portions onto a parchment-lined baking sheet.

  6. Flatten slightly with a spoon or fingers (wet your hands if sticky).

  7. Bake for 10–12 minutes until golden and crispy around edges.

  8. Cool completely to firm up (they get crisper as they cool).

🍪 Texture & Taste:

These cookies are savory, chewy, and slightly crispy — think of them as a cheese crisp meets soft snack. Add a bit more pork rind powder for crunchier results, or more fat for softness.

🔁 Variations:

  • Add bacon bits for extra flavor.

  • Use grated parmesan for a crispier, saltier version.

  • Want sweet (still zero-carb)? Use cinnamon + egg yolk + butter + stevia or monk fruit (if not strictly carnivore).

Want a sweet zero-carb carnivore version too (without any plant-based sweeteners)? I can give you a version using egg yolk, butter, and browned cheese that tastes like a custard cookie. Let me know!
