Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup almond flour
- 1 cup natural peanut butter
- 0.5 cup coconut sugar
- 1 whole large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 cup dark chocolate chips (70% cacao or higher)
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, coconut sugar, baking soda, and salt. Stir well to ensure there are no lumps.
Add the natural peanut butter, egg, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients. Stir until the mixture is well combined and forms a dough.
Gently fold in the dark chocolate chips until they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Using a tablespoon or a cookie scoop, portion out the dough onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 2 inches between each cookie.
Flatten each cookie slightly with the back of a spoon or your fingers.
Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.
Remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Enjoy these Paleo Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies fresh, or store them in an airtight container for up to a week.
