Flourless Chocolate Chip Cookies
Ingredients
- 3 cups almond flour (ground blanched almonds)
- 1 cup unsweetened coconut flakes
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 2 tbsp ground chia (or ground flax)
- 1/2 tsp sea salt
- 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1 cup (200g/7 oz.) semi-sweet bakers chocolate bar (70%)
- 1/3 cup coconut oil, melted
- 1 cup maple syrup
Preparation
In a large mixing bowl add almond flour, unsweetened coconut flakes, baking powder, ground chia, sea salt and cinnamon. Mix to combine.
Chop semisweet chocolate bar into small chunks with a knife. Add to bowl and mix to combine.
In a saucepan melt coconut oil on medium heat. Remove from heat and let cool slightly, pour into mixing bowl with maple syrup. Stir until combined and dough-like in texture.
Preheat oven to 350F/175C. Line baking tray with parchment paper and gently form dough into balls, about the size of a golf ball. Place on baking tray, and push down to slightly flatten. Bake for 10 minutes. Or until golden and browned.
