Ingredients
Scale
Dry Ingredients
- 1 cup blanched almond flour
- 2 tablespoons coconut flour
- ¼ teaspoon pinch of salt
- ¼ cup chocolate chips (or to taste)
Wet Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons vegan butter, melted
- 4 tablespoons maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Melt the Butter: Add the vegan butter to a microwave-safe bowl and heat it in the microwave until fully melted.
- Mix Wet Ingredients: Whisk the melted butter together with the maple syrup and vanilla extract until smooth and combined.
- Combine Dry Ingredients: Add the blanched almond flour, coconut flour, and a pinch of salt to the wet mixture. Stir well until everything is fully incorporated and forms a cookie dough consistency.
- Fold in Chocolate Chips: Gently fold in the chocolate chips evenly throughout the dough to ensure each bite has sweet pockets of chocolate.
- Taste and Adjust: Taste the mixture and adjust sweetness if desired, such as adding a sprinkle of granulated sugar for extra sweetness, based on personal preference.
- Chill to Set: Refrigerate the dough for about 20 minutes to firm up the texture and allow the flavors to meld beautifully.
- Serve: Once chilled, transfer the cookie dough to serving bowls or roll it into bite-sized balls for a fun and easy snack.
Notes
- Coconut flour can be substituted with tapioca starch, but this will slightly alter the flavor and texture.
- For a sweeter dough, consider adding a small amount of granulated sugar to taste.
- Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
- This dough is safe to eat raw as it contains no eggs or raw flour.
