Gluten Free/Sugar Free Chocolate Chip Cookies That Don’t Suck

April 18, 2020

These sound terrible when you read the title, but they are VERY tasty. They won’t leave you feeling a sugar hangover, and they are really easy to make. I used almond flour, but I am sure any other flour would sub well. I used Swerve sweetener, which is a natural sugar alternative, but I am sure real sugar or maple syrup would work well too! Get creative. Add some nuts perhaps? Some dates? Let me know how it works! Makes 12-14 cookies

Ingredient:

4 tbsp of sweetener of choice. I used Swerve because it tastes like the real thing, is natural, and doesn’t raise your blood sugar.

1 large egg OR vegan egg replacer. I used Bob’s Red Mill Egg Replacer.

1 tsp vanilla extract

1 tsp aluminum free baking powder

2 cups of superfine blanched almond flour

1/2 cup chocolate chips. I used Bake Believe Chocolate Chips

  1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Line a cookie sheet with parchment, or grease it with butter like I did because I didn’t have parchment paper.
  2. In a bowl, mix butter (soften it first) with your sweetener of choice.
  3. With a whisk or fork, beat in the egg (or replacement) and vanilla.
  4. Add in the almond flour, baking powder and a dash of salt.
  5. Add chocolate chips. Stir to combine well. I ended up using my hands here.
  6. Make small tablespoon size cookies. Bake for 10 minutes or until the cookies are slightly brown. Enjoy warm!
