Almond Flour Chocolate Chip Cookies Recipe

These Almond Flour Chocolate Chip Cookies are the best grain free cookies ever. Soft and chewy, just like chocolate chip cookies should be, filled with the buttery and vanilla flavor we love but with lower sugar than their traditional cousins. Easy to make, they are a go-to almond flour cookie at our house.

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup butter softened to room temperature
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup white sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 3 cups almond flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup chocolate chips

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 375°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set it aside.
  • Cream together the butter and sugars in a large mixing bowl with an electric or stand mixer until light and combined. Then bean in the egg and vanilla, scraping the bowl as needed.
  • Then add the almond flour, baking soda, and salt; mix until a dough forms. Fold in the chocolate chips. 
  • Scoop portions of dough and roll them into balls. Transfer to the prepared baking sheet, 2 inches apart.
  • Bake for 10-11 minutes, or until the edges turn slightly golden. Be careful not to overbake the cookies as they will continue to bake as they cool on the baking sheet for a couple of minutes.
  • Transfer the warm cookies to a cooling rack to cool completely... or just devour them warm from the oven as we most often do!

Notes

Freezing Cookie Dough

Roll the cookie dough into balls and place it in the freezer on a parchment-lined cookie sheet. Let freeze for about 1 hour, or until they are solid. Then transfer to a labeled airtight freezer container or freezer bag.
To bake from frozen, preheat the oven to 375 degrees for 2 to 4 minutes longer than the original recipe.

Freezing Baked Cookies

Let the cookies cool completely. Then add to an airtight freezer container or freezer bag. They will keep up to 3 months.
