Ingredients
- 2 ⅓ cups almond flour
- 2 tablespoons dark cocoa powder
- ½ teaspoon Kosher salt
- ¼ cup maple syrup
- ¼ cup avocado oil (or other neutral oil like vegetable)
- 1 tablespoon vanilla paste or vanilla extract
- 1¼ cup semisweet chocolate chips
Instructions
- Set oven and prep pan. Adjust a rack to the center of the oven, preheat it to 350℉, and line a sheet pan with parchment paper.
- Make the batter. Add the almond flour, cocoa powder and salt to a bowl and whisk to blend. Add the oil, syrup, vanilla and chocolate chips, and mix until everything is well combined.
- Shape. Use a 1½-inch cookie scoop to shape the batter into balls, placing each one on the parchment-lined sheet pan as you go, with about an inch between them.
- Bake and cool. Place the sheet pan in the preheated 350℉ oven and bake just until they look dry, about 10 minutes. Let them cool on the pan for at least 15 minutes before serving.
