Almond Flour Chocolate Chip Cookies

Almond Flour Chocolate Chip Cookies are gluten free, made with olive oil and dairy free! Find the recipe on shutterbean.com

This recipe for Almond Flour Chocolate Chip Cookies has sparked a lot of joy in my household. My friend MC always brings a gluten-free treat when she comes over and when I put in a request, it’s for some of these chocolate chip cookies. They always make the next few days in my house a bit sweeter. Breakfasts are delightful until I have to fight my husband for the last cookie in the house 🙂

Speaking of sweetness, I am now at the age where I comment on how awesome a dessert is because it isn’t too sweet. These cookies? They are just right for me.  The cookie is chewy with crispy edges. Think: macaron meets a chocolate chip cookie.  Oh, and the fact that they’re made in one bowl and require no butter (olive oil!!!) is a nice bonus too. I just need to make sure I have almond flour and chocolate chips in my pantry at all times.

I’m quite excited about all of my future baking possibilities now that I’ve tested the waters with almond flour.
