Description

These easy almond butter chocolate chip cookies are gluten free, dairy free and paleo friendly.  Made with almond butter, sweetened with coconut sugar and loaded with dark chocolate chunks.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/2 cup no-stir almond butter (unsalted, unsweetened)
  • 1/4 cup coconut sugar*
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1-2 oz dark chocolate, chopped (or chocolate chips)
  • flaked sea salt

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  2. In medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk egg with a fork.
  3. Mix in almond butter, coconut sugar and vanilla.
  4. Mix in baking soda.
  5. Fold chocolate into the dough.
  6. Use a small cookie scoop (about 1 rounded tablespoon per cookie) to scoop the dough onto a baking sheet**
  7. Bake at 350 degrees for 10 minutes.
  8. Remove from oven and sprinkle flaked salt on cookies.
  9. Cool a few minutes on the baking sheet, then transfer to a cooling rack.

Notes

*sub granulated sweetener (like monk fruit) for keto

**The dough is soft and oily, so I recommend using a cookie scoop rather than a spoon to place the dough on the pan.
