Ingredients
- 3/4 Cup natural almond butter
- 3 Tbsp maple syrup
- 2/3 Cup canned pumpkin puree
- 1/4 Cup coconut sugar
- 1/2 Tbsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 Tbsp apple cider vinegar
- 5 Tbsp Coconut flour, sifted (31g) * READ NOTES
- 1/2 Tbsp pumpkin pie spice
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp baking powder
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/4 Cup dairy-free dark chocolate chips
- 8 Udi's Gluten Free Soft Baked Maple Pecan Chocolate Chip Cookies
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 325 degrees and line an 8x8 inch pan with parchment paper, leaving a little bit to hang over the sides of the pan.
- In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the almond butter and maple syrup together until the almond butter is smooth and creamy, about 1 minute.
- Add in the pumpkin, coconut sugar, vanilla and apple cider vinegar. Using an electric hand mixer, beat until smooth.
- Add in the remaining ingredients, up to the chocolate chips, into the bowl and stir until well combined. Finally, stir in the chocolate chips.
- Spread just under 1/2 of the batter evenly in the bottom of the prepared pan. Then, press the cookies into the batter - 2 rows of 3 and one row of 2 cookies that are each broken in half - to fit the pan.
- Spread the remaining batter over the cookies, covering them entirely. It might seem like the batter won't cover the cookies but just work with it and it will!
- Bake until the edges are deep golden brown and begin to pull away from the sides, and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, about 50-55 minutes.
- Let cool COMPLETELY on the counter. **
- Slice and DEVOUR!

Notes
- *As with all gluten free baking, PLEASE weigh your flour. Some brands need 6 Tbsp to make 31g.
- **Do not cut these while still warm, as they won't hold together as well.
