Equipment
- 2 Large mixing bowls
- Measuring cups and spoons
- Whisk
- Spatula
- Parchment paper
- Large cookie sheet
Ingredients
- 1/3 Cup Coconut oil melted and cooled slightly
- 1 1/2 Tbsp Unsweetened almond milk
- 1/2 Cup Coconut sugar
- 1 Large Egg at room temperature
- 1 1/2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 1 1/2 Cups Garbanzo bean flour
- 1/4 tsp Ground cinnamon
- 3/4 tsp Baking soda
- 1/2 tsp Fine sea salt
- 1/3 Cup Mini semi-sweet chocolate chips Dairy-free
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
- In a large bowl whisk together melted and cooled coconut oil, coconut sugar, egg and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together garbanzo bean flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt.
- Add dry ingredients to wet ingredients until well combined. Then fold in the chocolate chips with a spatula.
- Use a medium cookie scoop to scoop the dough onto a parchment-lined baking sheet, equally spaced apart. Flatten the cookies slightly with your fingers or a spatula.
- Bake at 350 for 10-11 minutes or until edges are slightly golden brown.
- Allow the cookies to cool on a cookie sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool.
Notes
- The recipe makes 12 large cookies or 18 bite-sized cookies.
- When you melt the coconut oil, make sure it cools down before you mix in the egg. If it's too hot, it could cook the egg in the batter.
- This cookie dough can be pre-made and put in the fridge for a few hours before it's baked.
- Store the cookies in a plastic bag or air-tight container at room temperature for up to 7 days.
- These cookies can be frozen for up to 3 months. Wrap them in wax paper and sealed them in two plastic bags. Defrost at room temperature when you're ready to use them.
