Ingredients
- 1 tbsp ground flaxseed
- 2 ½ tbsp water
- 1 cup almond flour
- ¼ cup coconut flour
- ¾ cup coconut sugar
- 1 tsp baking soda
- ⅓ cup coconut oil, room temperature
- ⅓ cup creamy nut butter
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 cup dark chocolate chips
- sea salt, for garnish
Instructions
- First, make flax egg. Combine ground flaxseed and water in a small bowl. Mix to combine. Let this sit for 15 minutes to gel together.
- In a mixing bowl, combine almond flour, coconut flour, coconut sugar, and baking soda. Stir to combine.
- Then, add in flax egg, coconut oil, nut butter and vanilla extract. Stir to combine.
- Fold in dark chocolate chips.
- Place mixing bowl in the fridge to chill for an hour.
- After an hour, preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Use cookie scoop to form balls of dough. Place at least 2 inches apart on baking sheet.
- Bake for 11 to 13 minutes or until the middles of cookies are set.
- Remove from oven. Allow cookies to cool on pan for 5 minutes then transfer carefully to a cooling rack to finish cooling. Garnish with sea salt if desired.
Notes
- I have not tested this recipe with a chia egg or other egg replacement. I have only tried it with a flax egg.
- Use a creamy nut butter that contains only nuts! Any added sugars, oils, or preservatives will negatively affect the texture.
- Use room temperature coconut oil. It should be softened but not melted.
- Refrigerating the dough is not an optional step. It helps the cookies hold together before baking.
- Bake until set in the middle and edges are slightly golden. Do not over bake!
- These cookies don't spread a lot while baking. If you desire a flatter and crispier cookie, press down on the balls of dough slightly before baking.
- These cookies are best stored in the fridge for up to 5 days.
- They are soft at room temperature.
