Preheat your oven to 350Β°F (175Β°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, coconut sugar, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt. Mix until fully combined and no lumps remain.
In a separate small bowl, whisk together the egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until a dough forms. The dough will be slightly sticky.
Gently fold in the chopped pecans and dark chocolate chips until evenly distributed.
Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop spoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Lightly flatten each cookie with the back of a spoon or your fingers.
Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are set. The cookies will be soft but will firm up as they cool.
Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve and enjoy your gluten-free choc pecan cookies!
