Ok, I think I may have mentioned these cookies before in a previous post, but I just had to share again how great these are! This recipe was created by the wonderful Bill and Hayley over at The Primal Palate. The cookies are so good, they really don’t need fiddling with, but I did add a 1/2 cup almond butter to the mix, and that added a deliciously subtle almond buttery taste.
Ingredients:
- 3 cups Blanched Almond Flour
- 1/2 cup Coconut Oil, or butter
- 1/2 cup Pure Maple Syrup
- 2 Eggs
- 1 tsp Baking Soda
- 1 tsp Salt
- 1 tsp Vanilla Extract
- 1 bag Enjoy Life Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips (these are dairy/soy free)
- optional: 1/2 cup almond butter or peanut butter
Process:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- In a medium sized mixing bowl combine dry ingredients.
- In a small mixing bowl beat eggs, maple syrup, coconut oil or butter and vanilla extract with a hand mixer.
- Pour wet ingredients into dry and beat with hand mixer until combined.
- Stir in chocolate chips.
- On a parchment lined baking sheet, drop balls of cookie dough, about a tablespoon in size.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes.
Enjoy fresh and warm from the oven! I think they taste excellent after being in the fridge overnight, too!

Will be trying these tomorrow while I am confined to my house (post surgery)! I did one other recipe and used honey instead of maple syrup. BUT, I just recently found a recipe on Pinterest for browned butter and bacon chocolate chip cookies.. HEAVEN!?! Not Paleo, but Primal.. and might have to give that a go too 🙂

Oooh thanks! Gives me an excuse to try the almond flour I just bought 🙂

I just pulled my first batch of these out of the oven. They are amazing! I’ve tried a couple different almond flour cookie recipes, but this one was definitely my favorite. 🙂

Just made these with my four year old Friday night and we loved them, shared them Sat night with extended family and even my dad who scoofs as my attempts to transition to paleo loved them :-).
Kristin W. says
I have made these about 5 times now and we just love them along with everyone else that tastes them! They are one of my go to recipe’s in fact I will be eating one after lunch as I made them for easter.

Love these as is but today added 1/2c. Of sunflower butter to the batch. The inside of the cookie is bright green like spinach! Looks weird, but they taste even better than the basic recipe. Anyone else experience this with cooking with sunflower butter?
radlandon says
Hmmm…not sure about that! I’ve only used Sunbutter once, and didn’t have that problem. Weird?? Maybe someone else will have an answer…
Hollie says
Yes! Sunbutter does turn green when baked. We made Sunbutter (Peanut butter) Blossoms with Hershey kisses at Christmas and they were green, but still tasted great!
Stephanie KL says
Sunbutter reacts with the baking soda turning the cookies a green color. Totally edible with no after effects. Some make them specifically this way for St. Patrick’s Day.
Margaret says
Any idea how well this dough freezes? I’m making them now but we don’t want to bake them all. Thinking of throwing some of the rolled up dough in the freezer.
radlandon says
Hi, Margaret. I haven’t tried freezing it, but I would think it would be fine!
