Instructions
- Pre heat oven to 350°F and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
- Add all wet ingredients into a large bowl and beat with a hand held electric beater for about 1 minute, until creamy and smooth.
- Add almond flour, baking soda and salt and and continue beating, until thick and well combined.
- Add chocolate chips and mix in using a rubber spatula.
- Scoop 2 to 3 tablespoons measure dough mounds (an ice cream scoop comes in handy) onto the prepared cookie sheet, spacing about 2-inches apart.
- Bake for 15 to 18 minutes (rotating pan half way through baking), until the cookies are deep golden in color.
- Place pan on a wire rack to cool completely (due to the absence of gluten, cookies tend to break if removed when still hot).
Notes
Storage - Cookies can be stored in a sealed container, at room temperature 3 to 4 days - The cookies have crisp edges with soft and chewy centre on the day it is made and the edges tends to soften up after that. However, the taste remains the same.
Cookies might flatten thinner than shown if either the almond butter used was thinner or coconut oil was a touch more than than the recommended amount.
Golden brown sugar – Golden brown sugar gives that perfect color and taste of a traditional chocolate chip cookie.
Liquid coconut oil – If your coconut oil is solid, then melt it in the microwave until liquid and leave aside to cool to warm, before making dough.
