Ingredients

Scale

1 stick grass-fed butter (salted or unsalted works)
1 egg or flax egg
1 cup coconut sugar (or sub cane sugar and/or mix of both cane and brown sugars)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup almond meal or flour (I used meal so mine is a bit darker!)

1/2 cup dark chocolate chips (code RACHL for free shipping)

Cook Mode Prevent your screen from going dark

Instructions

In a small saucepan, add the butter and warm over medium/low heat and continue to stir as the butter melts
Once butter is fully melted, keep stirring over medium/low heat and allow the butter to start to brown (it will smell delicious and nutty too!)
Remove from heat before it burns and allow the butter to cool completely
Mix together butter, egg, coconut sugar and vanilla extract until smooth
Mix in almond meal, oat flour and baking powder until fully combined
Fold in dark chocolate chips then scoop about 2 tablespoons of dough into your hand and roll into a ball then add to greased or lined baking sheet
Gently press down the cookies (just slightly) and add to fridge to set for 20 minutes (I don’t usually leave them in longer than that)
Preheat oven to 350 degrees and bake cookies for 15-18 minutes, or until edges start to golden a bit
Allow the cookies to cool for 5 minutes or so then remove from tray and enjoy!

Notes

*Store leftovers in airtight container for 5 days or freezer for 2 months.

**Don’t seal the cookies up when they are hot or they will be mushy!! Let them cool first
