It’s time to get festive the healthy way: Keto Cinnamon Stars AKA Zimtsterne are traditional gluten free German Christmas cookies. This version is low carb, sugar free and diabetic-friendly.
The festive spirit has been going strong in the shop windows since Halloween’s been over, so I should have seen it coming. But I have to admit, December always creeps up on me. Shock horror! I have not got any presents sorted! Where did I put the lights for the Christmas tree? What, only 3 weeks to go?
I admire the people that have a Christmas spreadsheet and schedule all tasks so it’s done by the first of December (yes, they exist!). When I fight my way through the crowds on Oxford Street and queue for the last turkey at the butchers’, they can sit back, admire their beautifully decorated Christmas tree and sip mulled wine.
“Zimtsterne” are perhaps the most traditional Christmas cookies in Germany. They are the Mince Pies of Deutschland; the ultimate festive baked good. Plus, they taste absolutely delicious.
The original recipe requires ground almonds, which makes these German Christmas cookies gluten free. Unfortunately though, regular cinnamon stars are packed with icing sugar, which erases all the benefits of using nuts as opposed to wheat flour.
I remade our favourite family recipe using powdered erythritol and turned them into rather delicious sugar free Christmas cookies.
These Keto Christmas cookies make a great homemade gift. So make a bumper portion and share the sugar free love 🙂

You’d like to have seconds? No problem. These crunchy sugar free cut out cookies with a coconut butter glaze are low carb, gluten free and sweetened with erythritol.
I am so ready for Christmas! No, I haven’t even thought about presents. No ideas, no lists. And no, when the nice guy from the Christmas tree delivery company called me last week with a special offer, I did not take it either.
Don’t get distracted by the fact you are seeing friendly ghosts waving at you. It’s Halloween next week and you’ve got to go with the flow.
In our family we make cut out cookies once a year in the run-up to Christmas, in vast amounts – little hearts, adorable stars and cute Christmas trees. Baking sheet after baking sheet will go into the oven, and it always ends up being me in the kitchen by myself after the second round, with 6 more to go. Before I went sugar free, I used a Nigella recipe which came with the set of cookie cutters I own. It calls for wheat flour and copious amounts of sugar.
Now, if you attempt to replace not only the sugar (with erythritol, in my case), but also the wheat, you are entering tricky territory. It’s the gluten in wheat that makes dough very easy to handle and roll out. Grain free dough is softer and more delicate.
After the success of my Sugar Free Halloween Bat Cookies, which contain cocoa powder to be sufficiently dark and gloomy for Halloween, I adapted the recipe to create a vanilla version. I also added a liberal amount of almond extract, which, if I may say so, makes them taste just irresistible.
The most important step in this recipe is that you freeze the dough after you roll it out between two sheets of baking paper. This is the key to success when making low carb cut out cookies. Trust me. I am an impatient person and I have tried skipping it. It’s not worth the mess you’ll make. Stick it in the freezer, have a cup (or glass) of something and feel smug about being in the know.
The first one was just a mix of powdered erythritol (I used Sukrin Icing), a couple of drops of vanilla essence and a spoonful of water. This went down well with the kids, but for me it was a little sweet. The second type was just up my street – a sugar free coconut butter glaze which I adapted from this recipe by Simply Quinoa.If you spread it thinly, it dries into a nice, firm glaze. Coconut butter, not to be confused with coconut oil, tastes slightly sweet and creamy and is nice enough to be eaten by the spoonful.
And do you know the best thing about this recipe? When my kids are bored after the second round of festive baking and leave sneakily, I can call it a day too. A few days later, they’ll be ready to have another go (kids = short memories). And all I have to do is whisk the rolled out dough for my lovely sugar free cut out cookies from the freezer.
If you try out this recipe, let me know! I’d love to hear from you. Write me a comment on the blog or tag me on Instagram. And don’t forget to like my page on Facebook to get many more great recipe ideas.

Sugar free, low carb and gluten free cookie heaven: These walnut cookies are a super healthy take on the Italian classic Dolci di Noci.
Holidays are a fab time to get inspiration for new recipes. One leg of our Grand Tour of Europe we’ve just returned from – who would have thought our little car could drive through five countries without breaking down?! – took us to Italy. It is the cradle of food porn, to put it in Instagram speak.
Naturally, good sugar free intentions had to be put on hold quite bit. Tiramisu – of course. Gelato – it would have been rude to say no. You cannot travel 1000 miles and eat like you do at home.
And then there were some particularly wonderful walnut cookies called Dolci di Noci – little balls of nutty awesomeness, which we sampled with a perfect espresso, wearing dark shades. The Italians are stylissimo, so you’ve got to keep up!
Friends, now that I’m back to real life, may I present to you with my take on Dolci di Noci cookies. These sugar free walnut cookies have only 4 ingredients and are
1.) You beat an egg with powdered sweetener and cinnamon. If you want, you could also use granulated sweetener – I have used both with success. This brown sugar alternative by Sukrin works well too.
2.) Grind walnuts in a food processor or with a stick blender. How crunchy you want them is up to you. I like to leave some larger chunks, so I make sure I don’t grind them too long. You don’t want to end up with walnut flour!
3.) Add the walnut pieces to the egg/sweetener mix and stir until you have a cookie batter.
4.) Form little walnut cookie balls (see the image above for the size I made them) and place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. (I had run out so had to spray my baking tray with walnut oil.
5. ) Bake and enjoy!
I have tried this walnut cookie recipe with coarsely ground and more finely ground walnuts. Both versions taste great.
I imagine you could also use almonds, pecans or hazelnuts.
If you are a chocolate lover, you could also add some homemade sugar free chocolate chips!
Update October 2018: I have since made this recipe with 1 large egg white minus the egg yolk and found this way the walnut cookies turn out even crunchier.
