Keto Bacon Chocolate Chip Cookies
Bacon chocolate chip cookies elevate a classic recipe with a savory twist. With crisp pieces of bacon mixed right into the cookie batter, these keto cookies are packed with salty-sweet flavor.
The batter (inspired by our original keto chocolate chip cookies) gets a boost from gut-friendly collagen peptides, plus healthy fats from grass-fed butter and rich dark chocolate.
Make this recipe whenever you find yourself with a little extra bacon left over from recipes like keto green beans with bacon, bacon-wrapped burgers, or keto breakfast tacos. You’ll save yourself the time spent waiting for your bacon to cool — otherwise, make the dough without the bacon, then chill fully before adding warm bacon pieces.
Serve bacon chocolate chip cookies with a cool glass of coconut milk, dip in classic Bulletproof Coffee, or enjoy with a delicious turmeric latte. Special thanks to the team at our Seattle South Lake Union cafe for sharing this recipe!

Start to Finish: 45
Ingredients:
- 2 cups finely ground almond flour
- 3 Tbsp. Bulletproof Grass-Fed Ghee or grass-fed butter
- 3 Tbsp. Bulletproof Unflavored Collagen Protein
- 2 Tbsp. granulated non-GMO erythritol or birch xylitol (add more, if desired)
- 2 tsp. vanilla
- 1 egg
- 1/2 tsp. paleo-friendly baking powder
- 1 tsp. apple cider vinegar
- 1 pinch of salt
- 1/3 cup chocolate chips or chunks with at least 85% cacao
- 4 slices cooked and cooled pastured bacon, diced finely or crumbled
Instructions:
- Preheat oven to 340ºF.
- Line two baking trays with parchment paper.
- In a mixing bowl, add almond flour, collagen, sweetener and salt. Mix together, then add baking powder to the top.
- Pour apple cider vinegar on top of the baking powder so it reacts (you’ll see it bubble and fizz).
- Add ghee, vanilla and egg and mix thoroughly. Add chocolate and bacon pieces, and mix once more.
- Roll the dough into balls and place on the lined baking trays.
- Press the balls flat into cookie shapes. Press flatter for a crunchier cookie, and leave more rounded for a softer, chewier cookie.
- Bake for 15 minutes, or until golden.
- Remove trays from oven and gently place cookies on a wire rack to cool.
- When cooled, store leftover bacon chocolate chip cookies in a covered container.
