Almond Flour Chocolate Chip Cookies
Egg-free, dairy-free, grain-free chocolate chip cookies that taste absolutely amazing!
Ingredients
- 1 1/4 cups almond flour
- 1/4 cup ground flaxseed
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 cup coconut sugar*
- 1 egg lightly beaten
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup coconut oil melted and slightly cooled
- 1/3 cup dark chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, flaxseed, salt, and coconut sugar (the dry ingredients) and stir.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg, vanilla extract, and coconut oil (the wet ingredients).
- Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry and stir well.
- Add the chocolate chips and stir to combine.
- Scoop the dough onto a baking sheet and form cookies with your hands - these cookies aren't like regular ones where they spread out - they keep their form going in the oven.
- Bake for 7 to 9 minutes, or until cookies feel firm when poked and have browned around the edges (see note below).
Notes
I bake live at high elevation, so it took my cookies 12 minutes to bake. If you live at lower elevation, 7 to 9 minutes in the oven should work just fine.
*Replace the coconut sugar with regular brown sugar if you'd like.
