These keto gingersnaps are better than ever, dipped in rich white chocolate! They are perfect for cookie trays.
What Are Gingersnaps
Gingersnaps are a classic winter or Christmas cookie. They are associated with the winter months because they are made with warmer spices – molasses, ginger, cinnamon, and cloves.
They are usually very crispy and the ginger taste is very pronounced. I took the classic gingersnaps cookies and made them gluten-free, keto-friendly, and grain-free.
Even after dipping them in white chocolate, there are still just 3 grams net carbs in each cookie! These will become your favorite Christmas cookies that you can eat on the keto diet.

Best Keto Flour For Cookies
In order to get the perfect cookie texture, I suggest using almond flour. Don’t use almond meal; it will give the keto gingersnaps a grainy texture.
Can you swap coconut flour for almond flour? I don’t recommend doing that. Coconut flour absorbs more moisture than almond flour.
So if you try to use the same amount of coconut flour in these cookies, they will turn out too dry. And that’s definitely not good when the cookies are already pretty crispy.
I didn’t test these cookies with coconut flour. These cookies turned out perfectly with the almond flour.
What To Eat With Gingersnaps
White chocolate dipped keto gingersnaps are the perfect cookies to share at a party or add to your Christmas cookie tray. If you’re going to share them with friends, add some keto chocolate muffins to the table.
And if you want to jazz up the flavors but still enjoy a lot of chocolate, make some no-bake chocolate-dipped pumpkin bites. They literally taste like decadent truffles.
The winter months are just as much about pumpkin as they are about ginger, so make some more pumpkin desserts. Keto pumpkin chocolate chip muffins, and No-bake pumpkin pie cheesecake bites taste delicious together!
And you can never go wrong with a loaf of keto pecan pumpkin bread.
How To Store Gingersnaps
You can store chocolate dipped gingersnaps at room temperature. Just make sure that you keep them in an airtight container. They will stay fresh for about a week.
They are easy to freeze, too! Just wrap each cookie in parchment paper and store them in a freezer bag in the freezer for up to six months.
