Description

Healthy chocolate chip cookies made with SunButter.  They're paleo, gluten free and dairy free.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/2 cup coconut sugar
  • 1/3 cup SunButter (unsweetened, salted)
  • 1/3 cup palm shortening (room temperature), or butter
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 3/4 cup tigernut flour (60g), or almond flour
  • 1/4 cup tapioca starch (30g)
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/3 cup miniature dark chocolate chips
  • flaked salt (optional topping)


Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F.  Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.  
  2. Combine the SunButter, coconut sugar, shortening, egg and vanilla.  Whisk using a fork until well combined.
  3. Mix in the tigernut flour, tapioca starch, and baking soda. 
  4. Fold in the chocolate chips.
  5. Using a small cookie scoop, scoop the dough onto your lined baking sheet.  The cookies do spread, so leave about 2-3 inches between each cookie.
  6. Place the cookies in your preheated oven and bake at 350 degrees for 12 minutes.
  7. After baking, sprinkle the cookies with flaked salt.  Let the cookies cool for 5-10 minutes on the baking sheet before transferring them to a wire cooling rack.
