Description

These Almond Flour Chocolate Chip Cookies are the perfect treat for anyone craving a delicious, gluten-free cookie! Made with wholesome ingredients, they are soft, chewy, and loaded with rich chocolate chips. Almond flour gives them a nutty flavor and keeps them light and tender, while the dark chocolate provides that irresistible sweetness. Perfect for those following a gluten-free or healthier lifestyle, these cookies will satisfy your sweet tooth without the guilt.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups almond flour
  • ¼ cup coconut oil or butter, melted
  • ½ cup brown sugar or coconut sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • ¼ tsp salt

 

  • 1 cup dark chocolate chips (or chunks)

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Combine dry ingredients – In a medium bowl, whisk together almond flour, baking soda, and salt.
  • Mix wet ingredients – In another bowl, beat together the melted coconut oil or butter, sugar, egg, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  • Add dry ingredients to wet ingredients – Slowly combine the dry mixture into the wet mixture and stir until a dough forms.
  • Fold in chocolate chips – Stir in the dark chocolate chips (or chunks).
  • Shape the dough – Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough and place them on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
  • Bake – Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden.

 

  • Cool – Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • Storage: Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days. They can also be refrigerated for up to a week.
  • Freezing: Freeze unbaked dough balls on a tray and transfer to a ziplock bag once frozen. Bake directly from the freezer, adding 1-2 minutes to the baking time.

 

  • Sweetener alternatives: Feel free to use maple syrup or honey as a sweetener. Adjust the amount based on preference.
