Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups blanched almond flour
  • ½ cup erythritol or monk fruit sweetener blend
  • ¼ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 large pasture-raised egg
  • ¼ cup melted coconut oil
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ¼ teaspoon sea salt
  • ½ cup sugar-free chocolate chips (optional)

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the almond flour, sweetener, cocoa powder, baking soda, and sea salt.
  3. Create a small well in the center of the dry ingredients. Add the egg, melted coconut oil, and vanilla extract.
  4. Mix the ingredients thoroughly until a cohesive dough forms.
  5. Gently fold in the sugar-free chocolate chips if using.
  6. Use a cookie scoop or a tablespoon to portion out uniform balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet.
  7. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden and the centers are set but still slightly soft.
  8. Let the cookies cool on the sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

Store cooled cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3-4 days. For longer freshness, refrigerate for up to one week or freeze for 2-3 months.
