Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Almond flour
- 0.5 cups Coconut sugar
- 0.5 teaspoons Baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 cups Coconut oil (melted and cooled)
- 1 whole Egg
- 1 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 0.75 cups Dark chocolate chips (dairy-free, if preferred)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the almond flour, coconut sugar, baking soda, and salt until evenly combined.
In a separate smaller bowl, whisk together the melted coconut oil, egg, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring with a spatula or wooden spoon until a soft dough forms.
Fold in the dark chocolate chips until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop heaping spoonfuls of the dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Gently flatten each cookie slightly with the palm of your hand or the back of a spoon, as these cookies won't spread much during baking.
Bake in the preheated oven for 8–10 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden (the centers will still look slightly soft).
Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to finish cooling.
Enjoy your healthier chocolate chip cookies with a glass of almond milk or your favorite beverage!
