Preheat your oven to 350Β°F (175Β°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together almond flour, coconut sugar, baking soda, and salt until well combined.
In a separate small bowl, beat the egg. Add melted coconut oil and vanilla extract, then mix until smooth.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until a dough forms. Fold in chocolate chips gently.
Using a tablespoon or small cookie scoop, portion the dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing cookies about 2 inches apart.
Flatten each cookie slightly with the back of a spoon or your fingers since they wonβt spread much during baking.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown.
Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Enjoy your gluten-free almond and chocolate chip cookies, either warm or at room temperature! Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
