Summertime in Colorado is usually very hot and sunny which makes it hard to spend too much time in the house and baking. This week was a bit uncharacteristic of typical Colorado July weather. We had two days in a row of high 60 degree temps and rain. It was a nice little break and allowed us to bake and play in the kitchen a bit.
Since giving up sugar and most grains, I find myself experimenting with cookie recipes for the kids. I usually just tweak traditional recipes. Sometimes they are great and other times they are just experiments that we don't repeat.
This week's recipe was a hit!
Almond Flour Choc. Chip Cookies
1 1/4 cup almond meal
1/2 cup choc chips or cacao nibs for sugar free
1/2 cup unsweetend coconut flakes
1/2 tsp. baking powder
1 egg
3 tbsp coconut oil melted
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
Preheat oven to 375 degrees
In a large bowl mix together all dry ingredients and then slowly add and mix the wet ingredients. Once all is equally blended, spoon 1 inch balls onto baking sheet. Bake for about 7-10 minutes or until the edges begin to brown. Cool and serve!
My batch lasted less than an hour!
