Healthy Chocolate Chip Cookies: Paleo, Nut-Free, Gluten-Free, and Dairy-Free!

Now, let’s get to the fun part—making these delicious cookies!
Servings 14 cookies

Ingredients
  

  • 1/4 cup coconut flour
  • 1/4 cup tigernut flour (can substitute for oat flour to make it non paleo)
  • 1/2 cup coconut oil melted
  • 1/3 cup maple syrup or honey
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/2 cup paleo chocolate chips

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the coconut flour, tigernut flour, baking soda, and salt. Stir to combine.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk together the coconut oil, maple syrup, egg, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  • Slowly add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring until a dough forms. The dough will be slightly sticky but should hold together well. If it’s too dry, add a splash of coconut milk or water.
  • Gently fold in the paleo chocolate chips, making sure they’re evenly distributed throughout the dough.
  • Using a tablespoon or cookie scoop, portion the dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing the cookies about 2 inches apart.
  • Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges of the cookies are golden brown. Keep an eye on them, as coconut flour can burn quickly.
  • Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
