Ingredients

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 cup almond flour
  • 1/2 cup oats
  • 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/2 cup erythritol or another sugar substitute Adjust sweetness to taste
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp salt

Wet Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup coconut oil, melted
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Optional Add-ins

  • 1/4 cup sugar-free chocolate chips or nuts Fold in if desired

Method

Preparation

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a mixing bowl, combine almond flour, oats, cocoa powder, erythritol, baking powder, and salt.
  • In another bowl, mix melted coconut oil, egg, and vanilla extract until well combined.
  • Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing until a dough forms. If adding chocolate chips or nuts, fold them in now.

Baking

  • Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
  • Flatten each cookie slightly with the back of a spoon or your fingers.
  • Bake for 10-12 minutes, until set but still soft. Allow cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
