Red, White & Blue Crinkle Cookies

Low-Sugar 4th of July Cookies

Looking for the main character of your next BBQ dessert table? These stunning Red, White & Blue Crinkle Cookies are low in sugar, high in vibes, and ridiculously fun to make. Whether you're hosting a backyard cookout, picnicking under fireworks, or just craving something festive and sweet, this recipe brings all the bang without the sugar crash.

Made with Pyure Organic Granulated Sweetener, these cookies get their signature sweetness from an organic sugar substitute—not the stuff you grew up on. That means they're low in sugar but still soft, chewy, and totally addictive.

Perfect for Memorial Day, the Fourth of July, or honestly, any old Tuesday. 

 

Ingredients

Dough:

  • ½ cup unsalted butter

  • 1¼ cups Pyure Granulated Sweetener

  • 2 large eggs

  • 2⅓ cups flour

  • 1 tsp baking powder

  • 2 tsp vanilla extract

  • 1 tsp salt

For Rolling:

Directions

  1. In a stand mixer, cream the butter and Pyure Granulated Sweetener until light and fluffy.

  2. Add vanilla, salt, and eggs—mix until just combined (don’t overdo it).

  3. Add flour and baking powder. Mix until you have a thick, tacky dough. Too sticky? Add a little more flour until it behaves.

  4. Chill the dough for at least an hour (or overnight—if you’re patient).

  5. Preheat your oven to 350°F and line a baking sheet with parchment.

  6. Divide dough into three parts: leave one plain (white), dye one red, and one blue. Use gloved hands or your mixer to mix in color.

  7. Grab 1 tablespoon of each color, smoosh them together, and roll into a ball for that red-white-blue swirl.

  8. Roll each ball in granulated sweetener, then coat in powdered sugar.

  9. Freeze dough balls for 10–15 minutes.

  10. Bake for 13–15 minutes until the edges are set and the tops crinkle like fireworks.

Let cool, then serve, snap a pic, and prepare for compliments.

Why Use Pyure?

Because sugar-free doesn't have to mean sad. These cookies use Pyure Organic Sweeteners to bring the sweet without the sugar—so you can enjoy the fun and still stick to your vibe (keto, low-carb, plant-based, whatever you're into).

If you’re searching for a low-sugar holiday dessert that doesn’t taste like cardboard, this is it.

Final Tip:

Double the batch. Trust us—these go fast.

Got extras? Freeze the dough balls and bake straight from the freezer whenever a cookie emergency hits.
