Description

These Paleo Chocolate Chip Cookies are soft, chewy, and deliciously satisfying. Made with wholesome ingredients like almond flour, coconut sugar, and dark chocolate chips, they’re gluten-free, dairy-free (if using coconut oil instead of ghee), and Paleo-friendly.


Ingredients

  • Dry Ingredients:
  • 1 1/2 cups blanched almond flour
  • 1/4 cup tapioca flour
  • 1/4 cup coconut flour
  • 1/4 cup coconut sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/8 teaspoon nutmeg
  • Wet Ingredients:
  • 1/4 cup ghee, room temperature
  • 1 egg, room temperature
  • 3 tablespoons honey
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 1/3 cup dark chocolate chips


Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium bowl, mix together all dry ingredients: almond flour, tapioca flour, coconut flour, coconut sugar, salt, baking soda, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
  3. In a separate large bowl, whisk together wet ingredients: ghee, egg, honey, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  4. Gradually add dry ingredients into the wet mixture, stirring to form a thick dough.
  5. Fold in the dark chocolate chips.
  6. Form dough into 12 balls and place on prepared baking sheet. Flatten slightly with your hands.
  7. Bake for 10–12 minutes, or until golden brown around the edges.
  8. Let cookies cool on the baking sheet before serving. Enjoy!

Notes

  • Cookies will firm up as they cool, so avoid overbaking.
  • Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or refrigerate for up to a week.
  • For dairy-free, substitute ghee with coconut oil.
