Author: Vegan Richa

Ingredients

  • 3/4 cup (187.5 g) almond butter , smooth drippy kind
  • 1/3 cup (107.33 g) maple syrup
  • 1/4 cup (61 ml) non dairy milk such as almond milk
  • 1/4 tsp (0.25 tsp) salt
  • 1/2 tsp (0.5 tsp) vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup (30.24 g) + 2 tbsp coconut flour (6 tbsp total)
  • 1/4 tsp (0.25 tsp) baking soda
  • 1/3 cup (60 g) chocolate chips
  • 1/4 cup (24.75 g) chopped pecans or other nuts or additions

Instructions

  • Warm the almond butter and maple syrup in a microwave, or over stove top in a saucepan until warm. Whisk well to combine. You can also just leave it outside for 15 mins to reach room temp then whisk. 
  • Add in the non dairy milk, salt, vanilla extract, spices if using. and mix in.
  • Add the coconut flour and baking soda and mix well. Add in the chocolate chips and pecans and mix in. Chill for 15 mins.
  • Add in more coconut flour if too sticky. Shape the dough into flat discs and place or parchment lined baking sheet. Press down to make thinner cookies as they will rise while baking
  • Bake for 10 mins at 350 degrees F (180 deg C), a minute or so longer for crispier or for larger cookies. (bake smaller batches to adjust based on your oven, pan, nut butter behavior). The cookies will be soft right out of the oven. Cool on the counter for 15 mins. If they are a bit too soft or muffin like, chill for an hour. Store on the counter for the day or refrigerate for upto a week.

Notes

Add chopped chocolate chunks, some shredded coconut, other chopped nuts, some oatmeal for variation. 
 
Tips: Dont bake these cookies for too long as the coconut flour will tend to burn. Press the shapes discs on the sheet for more compact cookies and refrigerate once cool for the best texture.

    These look amazing! So, we have to be nut-free in my house (deadly allergies). How do you think soynut butter or another sub would work?

      i think sunbutter will work. add a tsp lime juice to the batter else the cookie will turn green, edible but funky green with sunbutter. i havent tried soybutter enough to know is direct sub works. if you have used it in baking and it behaves like nut butter, then try it.

          Yes, you would need a bit more almond flour. Also add a tbsp starch (arrowroot or corn) if you can

    These look fab! I’m not aware of any refined sugar free chocolate chips in Australia. Is there a particular brand you’ve used?

      May 17, 2018 at 5:15 pm

      lilys dark chocolate chips are sweetened with stevia. There might be other dark chip brands as well. What i meant was no added refined sugar in the dough. You can switch the chips out with other things.

    Can I use another flour – preferably rice flour for these cookies? My second choice would be chick pea flour….I can’t have anything coconut (wheat, sunflower). I’ve been really wanting cookies lately…so the timing is great! I have everything else ready to go 🙂

    Perfect timing! Been craving chocolate chip cookies for awhile now! Does the almond butter need to be chunky or creamy? Can we sub walnuts for pecans?

      I am guessing you mean earth balance butter. No that butter is completely different from nut butters. You can use earth balance in this recipe for a classic chocolate chip cookie https://www.veganricha.com/2016/12/vegan-chocolate-chip-cookies-coconut-oil.html

    In the uk all our nut butters seem to be solid so can’t find the drippy type. Is there anything I could do to make it drippy or is there an alternative as I would love to try the recipie x

      when you warm the nut butter + maple syrup. The mixture should get drippy and smooth. Mix well so that all the nut butter is evenly changed texture and proceed.

    Can’t wait to try these! But I don’t have almond butter, do you think it will work with peanut butter, or almond is a must? Thanks in advance!

      Yes any nut butter will work. PEanut butter is a bit thicker, sp youo might need a bit less coconut flour. also maybe a minute less bake time. check earlier.

    I made this exactly as written except that I doubled it. It turned out perfectly except that the chocolate chips started to melt because the almond butter mixture was still too warm when I put the mixture in the fridge to chill. Still turned out great. My fiancé actually said this was the best dessert I’ve ever made, which seems weird to me because I’ve made a lot of pretty great desserts! I thought they were really good, though, and were even better after being in the fridge for a day.
