Matcha Mint Chocolate Chip Cookies
SERVINGS: 10
TIME: 0 hrs, 45min
CATEGORY: Desserts
INGREDIENTS
- • 2 cup blanched almond flour*
- • ¼ cup 100% pure maple syrup
- • 3 Tbsp melted coconut oil
- • ⅛ tsp fine sea salt
- • 2 tsp organic matcha powder
- • ¼ tsp peppermint extract
- • ½ tsp baking soda
- • 1 tsp apple cider vinegar
- • ¾ cup cup gluten-free dark chocolate chips
DIRECTIONS
- 1. Preheat the oven to 350F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- 2. In a large bowl, stir together the almond flour, maple syrup, coconut oil, salt, Matcha, peppermint, baking soda, and vinegar. Once a smooth & sticky batter is formed, fold in the chocolate chips.
- 3. Scoop the dough onto a lined baking sheet, making roughly 10 cookies. Press the mounds with your finger tips to shape them-- because there are no eggs in this recipe, they won't spread significantly. (You can get your fingertips wet to help prevent the dough from sticking to your hands.)
- 4. Bake the cookies until lightly golden around the edges, about 10-12 minutes. Cool for at least 15 minutes before serving.
