Description
Soft, chewy, and naturally gluten-free, these almond flour chocolate chip cookies are rich with nutty flavor and gooey chocolate in every bite.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups almond flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/3 cup melted coconut oil
- 1/3 cup maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 large egg
- 1/2 to 2/3 cup chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, whisk together almond flour, baking soda, and salt.
- In a separate bowl, mix melted coconut oil, maple syrup, egg, and vanilla extract until combined.
- Pour wet ingredients into dry and stir until a dough forms. Fold in chocolate chips.
- Scoop dough into 1.5 tablespoon-sized balls, place on baking sheet, and flatten slightly.
- Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, until edges are golden and centers are just set.
- Let cool on the sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
- Chilling the dough for 20 minutes prevents spreading and makes shaping easier.
- Top with extra chocolate chips before baking for a bakery-style finish.
- Store in an airtight container for up to 5 days or freeze for longer shelf life.
