Simple Paleo Chocolate Chip Cookies - Mainstay

By Shirl

Today we present to you chocolate chip cookies that are gluten-free, dairy-free, and grain-free, and still delicious. I really enjoying coming up with new baking concoctions for the Paleo diet, so I thought it was about time that I try to make the classic chocolate chip cookie. I made similar bars quite awhile ago, but like how the cookies turned out even better. I could not stop eating these when they were warm out of the oven, with a little almond milk served alongside for dipping. They are beyond delicious.

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. In a large bowl, mix together the coconut oil, honey, vanilla, and almond milk. In a separate bowl, whisk together the almond flour, salt, and baking soda. Add the dry ingredients into the wet and stir to combine. Fold in the chocolate chips.
Scoop a tablespoon of dough onto the baking sheet and form into a circle. Bake for 8-12 minutes until the bottoms are golden. Let cool for 5 minutes and then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
