Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups almond flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/3 cup coconut oil, melted (or butter)
  • 1/3 cup maple syrup (or honey)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 large egg

 

  • 1/2 cup dark chocolate chips

Instructions

  • Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

  • Combine Wet Ingredients: In another bowl, mix melted coconut oil, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and egg until well combined.
  • Form Dough: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix until a thick dough forms. Fold in chocolate chips.
