Ingredients
- 2 cups almond flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon sea salt
- 1/4 cup coconut oil, melted
- 1/4 cup maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup dark chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the almond flour, baking soda, and sea salt.
- In a separate bowl, mix the melted coconut oil, maple syrup, and vanilla extract until well combined.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring until a cohesive dough forms. Fold in the dark chocolate chips.
- Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart to allow for spreading.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown. The centers will still look slightly undercooked—this gives them that soft and chewy texture.
- Remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack.
