A simple and addictive gluten-free cookie recipe using almond flour that yields soft, chewy cookies with melty chocolate chips. Perfect for satisfying cravings without compromising texture or flavor.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups (192 grams) finely ground almond flour
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ¼ teaspoon sea salt
  • ½ cup (113 grams) unsalted butter, softened
  • ½ cup (100 grams) packed brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 2 large eggs, room temperature
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup (175 grams) semi-sweet or dark chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together almond flour, baking soda, and sea salt. Set aside.
  3. Using an electric mixer or hand mixer, beat softened unsalted butter with packed brown sugar until light and fluffy, about 2 to 3 minutes.
  4. Mix in honey and vanilla extract until combined.
  5. Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
  6. Gradually add the almond flour mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed or folding gently with a spatula until just combined.
  7. Fold in chocolate chips evenly throughout the dough.
  8. Use a cookie scoop or spoon to drop 1.5-tablespoon-sized mounds about 2 inches apart on the baking sheet. Flatten slightly with fingers or the back of a spoon.
  9. Bake for 10-12 minutes until edges are golden but centers remain soft.
  10. Let cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a cooling rack.

Notes

Do not overbake to keep cookies chewy; centers should look slightly undercooked before cooling. Use room temperature eggs and softened butter for best texture. Chilling dough for 30 minutes is optional but recommended to reduce spreading and enhance flavor. For dairy-free version, substitute butter with coconut oil or vegan butter. Adding chopped nuts or dried fruit can add texture and flavor.
