Ingredients
  

Dry Ingredients
  • 2 cups almond flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
Wet Ingredients
  • 1/4 cup coconut sugar or sweetener of your choice
  • 1/4 cup maple syrup or honey
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup coconut oil or unsalted butter, melted
Mix-ins
  • 1/2 cup dairy-free chocolate chips ensure they're halal certified

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the almond flour, baking soda, and salt until well combined.
  3. In a separate large bowl, mix coconut sugar, maple syrup, melted coconut oil (or butter), and vanilla extract until you achieve a smooth consistency.
  4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture while stirring until well incorporated. Don’t over-mix!
  5. Gently fold in the dairy-free chocolate chips until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
  6. Using a spoon or cookie scoop, drop dough onto the lined baking sheet, leaving space between each cookie.
  7. Bake for 12-15 minutes or until the edges are golden brown.
  8. Remove from the oven and allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

For optimal texture, avoid over-baking. Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days or refrigerate for a longer shelf life. They can also be frozen for up to 3 months.
