    Low Carb Keto Jello Meringue Cookies

    Jump to Recipe

    These low carb and Keto Jello meringue cookies are fun treats with less than 1g net carbs per serving.

    Low Carb Jello Meringue Cookies

    There is this Jimmy Fallon sketch, that was not super funny when I first saw it, but the more I think about it the funnier it gets.

    In the sketch below, Will Ferrell and Christina Aguilera play teeny boppers who love wearing tight pants.  They are very proud of their pants and brag that they're the only ones in town who have them.  Enter Jimmy Fallon, who claims that it is actually he who has the tightest pants in all the land.  A dust up ensues.  And now I can't stop singing,

    "Everybody's talkin bout my tight pants, I've got my tight pants, I've got my tight pants on."  

    I sang it as I took a shower.

    I sang it as I ate my breakfast, and I sang as I made these Sugar-Free Jello meringue cookies.  And it's made the day better, I have to admit.  Just the thought of Will Ferrell in tight pants cracks me up now.

    And the cookies turned out really well too.

    It's still morning but I've had more than a few.  No worries though because they are just Jello, egg whites and air.  They've got less than 1g of carbs, so you can have as many as you want.

    And soon you'll have your tight pants, you'll have your tight pants, you'll have your tight pants on.

      Would sugar free pudding mix work in here as well?

        That's a good question. I don't know the answer to that. I've made meringue cookies with Jello and with cocoa powder, so it would make sense that pudding powder would work too. You don't need to use a powder though- you can make them with just eggs and sweetener. Here's a recipe for that. https://www.resolutioneats.com/blog/low-carb-almond-meringue-cookies

      I was so thrilled to see this recipe! My Mother-in-Law makes the original (with sugar!) recipe, and I’ve missed them since going keto. I make my own keto chocolate chips with baking chocolate and Swerve. So I carefully folded a handful of those into the cherry jello-flavored mixture. I was happy to see that the texture and loft weren’t compromised, and they turned out great. Thank you for this recipe!

      LOVED this recipe! I wound up using a 50/50 mix of Swerve and Stevia in the Raw to avoid bizarre cooling sensation. They turned out PHENOMENAL! I’ve gotten so many compliments!
