Description

Ingredients

• 1 1/4 cups almond flour
• 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
• 1/2 tsp baking soda
• 1/4 tsp salt
• 1/2 cup pure maple syrup
• 1/4 cup raw almond butter (I like raw almond butter because its thin and runny)
• 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
• 1 tsp almond extract
• 1/4 cup vegan chocolate chips (I used Enjoy Life Mini Chips )

Directions

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
• In a medium bowl, sift the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda and salt.
• In a large bowl, whisk the maple syrup, almond butter, vanilla and almond extracts.
• Add the dry ingredients to the wet and stir with a wooden spoon or spatula until well incorporated.
• Once the batter is incorporated, mix in the chocolate chips.
• Drop batter onto the prepared baking sheet. The batter will be sticky, so use one spoon to scoop the dough and another spoon to help scrape the batter off the first spoon onto the baking sheet.
• Bake for 8 minutes. Let cool on the baking sheet for a minute or two before transfering to a wire rack to cool completely.
• Serve with a glass of your favorite non dairy milk.
