Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F/ 180 degrees C. Take a large baking sheet and cover it with parchment paper—set aside.
- Place the almond flour in a bowl, then add the spices and baking soda. Using a whisk, combine the spices with the flour until well combined. Stir in the chocolate chips. Set aside.
- Place the egg, dates, peanut butter, and coconut oil in a blender. Blend until you get a sticky brown paste. Transfer to the bowl with the flour mix.
- Combine the almond flour-spice mix with the brown date paste using a wooden spoon until all the flour mix has been absorbed by the date paste and you get a solid ball of dough.
- Scoop up a tablespoon of the dough. Roll it into a smooth, small ball and place it on the prepared sheet. Repeat with the rest of the mixture. Ensure they're spaced well apart.
- With the back of a glass, slightly flatten the cookie dough balls.
- Bake in the oven for 13 to 15 minutes or until golden brown.
- Take out of the oven and allow to cool for about 5 to 10 minutes. Enjoy!

Notes
- Helpful Tips:
- gently pull it away from the glass and place it back on the prepared baking sheet—it goes fast.
- Storage: Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 7 days.
- Spices: If you have it on hand, use a Speculaas mix (about 2 to 3 teaspoons), which is merely a mixture of cinnamon, cloves, nutmeg, anise, ginger, white pepper, or licorice, and cardamom (depending on the brand these prepackaged spice bags may differ somewhat in flavor). You can easily purchase these spices online from local brands such as King Arthur Flour Speculaas Spice.
- Forming the Cookies: Use the back of a glass, gently press the dough balls down into a cookie shape. If the dough sticks to the glass, dip it in a little water to prevent it from sticking. I prefer to gently pull it away from the glass and place it back on the prepared baking sheet—it goes fast.
