These cookies are unbelievable. I found the recipe for them on the The Whole Pantry App (which is amazing..you should download it!) and I've also seen countless photos on Instagram from people who have tried making them. The most amazing thing is that they're GOOD FOR YOU. Whaaaaat? Amazing healthy cookie goodness is a thing? Yep. They're even Nate approved- he said something along the lines of "chocolate-coconut-so good-mmmm." The original recipe calls for maple syrup but since I didn't have any I substituted honey. I also used more coconut oil than the recipe called for and added cinnamon because, why not?
What you'll need:
-1 1/2 cups almond meal
-3 1/2 tablespoons melted coconut oil
-1/4 cup cacao nibs
-2 tablespoons honey
-1 teaspoon vanilla extract
-1/4 teaspoon sea salt flakes
-1/4 teaspoon baking powder
-A few pinches of cinnamon
1. Preheat oven to 340 degrees.
2. Combine all ingredients in a bowl and stir until mixed well.
3. Line a baking sheet. Make balls of batter using about 1 tablespoon for each. Roll out to make cookie shape and press lightly in the center.
4. Bake for 13-15 minutes until golden. They should be soft when you take them out, so wait a few minutes while they firm up a bit. The recipe says that the center will stay soft and fudgey when cooled, but if you would prefer crunchier cookies you can let them bake for a few minutes longer. Mine were definitely softer and gooier on the inside which was awesome.
These are addictive, so beware! I'm excited to make them again using maple syrup because I can only imagine that they'll be even better. xx Courtney
