- 1 1/2 cups almond flour (blanched and finely ground)
- 1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/4 cup coconut oil or unsalted butter, melted
- 1/2 cup coconut sugar or brown sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup dark chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat the oven: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Prepare dry ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together the almond flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt.
- Mix wet ingredients: In another bowl, mix the melted coconut oil or butter with the coconut sugar. Beat in the egg and vanilla extract.
- Combine ingredients: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until a dough forms. Fold in the chocolate chips.
- Shape and bake: Scoop tablespoon-sized amounts of dough, roll into balls, and place on the baking sheet. Flatten each ball slightly and bake for 10–12 minutes until set.
- Cool and enjoy: Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
- For extra texture, add chopped nuts or a mix of dark and milk chocolate chips.
