Flourless Almond Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies
Description
The Flourless Almond Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies consist primarily of almond butter and sugar, which deliver moisture and sweetness, while egg and baking soda provide structure and lift. Vanilla adds a warm flavor backdrop, and salt balances the sweetness. Chocolate chips distributed throughout the dough melt gently during baking, creating pockets of chocolate.
Baked at 350°F for about 10-11 minutes, the cookies develop a tender but stable texture without flour, making them dense and moist inside. Cooling briefly on the baking sheet before transferring to a wire rack allows them to set properly for handling.
This recipe requires minimal equipment and mixing by hand works fine, which simplifies preparation. It’s an option for those looking for cookies without flour, relying on almond butter's natural fats for richness and softness.
Ingredients
- 1 cup almond butter
- 3/4 cup sugar
- 1 egg
- 1 tsp vanilla
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1 cup chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees fahrenheit. Line cookie sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats and set aside.
- In a medium sized bowl, stir together almond butter, sugar, egg, vanilla, baking soda, and salt until well combined. You can do this by hand; no need for the electric mixer. Stir in the chocolate chips and mix well.
- Scoop the cookie dough by rounded tablespoon and place on prepared baking sheets about two inches apart. Bake in preheated oven for 10-11 minutes, being careful not to over bake. Allow to cool on cookie sheet for 3-5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely. Enjoy!
