Almond Flour Chocolate Chip Cookies

Ingredients

• 1 ½ cups almond flour 
• 1 ¾ teaspoon baking powder
• ½ teaspoon sea salt plus more for sprinkling
• ¼ cup creamy almond butter, at room temperature 
• 1 cup of coconut sugar 
• 2 large eggs at room temperature
• ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
• ¼ cup of bittersweet chocolate chips

Directions

• Preheat the oven to 350F. Adjust the oven racks to middle and lower-middle positions. 
• Place all the dry ingredients in the food processor. Then add the wet ingredients.
• Pulse everything for 8-10 times in 1-second increments until all ingredients are fully mixed. Do not let it run for a long time as that may cause the thick dough to clog your food processor.
• If you are adding the chocolate chips, transfer the dough into a bowl and mix in the chocolate chips.
• Transfer cookies onto the parchment paper lined baking trays.
• Place one cookie scoop or 2 tablespoon balls of the batter on the baking trays and gently press them down.
• Sprinkle a pinch of sea salt on top of the cookies.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 13 minutes or until golden brown.
• Let cool for 3 minutes in the sheet pan and then transfer onto a wire rack.
