Gluten-Free Chocolate Chip Cookies
Serves: about 36
Ingredients:
2 whole eggs
1/2 cup maple syrup
1 tsp pure vanilla extract
1tsp salt
1tsp baking soda
3 cups blanched almond flour (Costco’s is great!)
1/2 cup softened butter (1 stick)
(or melted coconut oil for paleo cookies)
1 to 1 1/2 cups chocolate chips (we like Enjoy Life chocolate chips)
Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 or 375 degrees (your usual cookie temp)
Beat together the eggs, maple syrup, and vanilla extract with a mixer
Add dry ingredients and mix together
Beat until well combined
Add softened butter or melted coconut oil and continue to blend until combined
Stir in chocolate chips
Drop a tablespoon of cookie dough on a parchment lined sheet or buttered pan
(I use my favorite cookie dough scoop)
Bake for 9-15 minutes* depending on pan and batch number
*I start out at 15 minutes with our stone pan then gradually reduce it each batch down to 10 minutes. Follow your usual cookie times and temps with your preferred cookie sheet. If you aren’t baking with stone, run and get thee some. A baker’s dream! My pampered chef pan makes the best cookies!
Transfer to cooling rack
Enjoy!
