Sometimes we just want to really indulge in a “sweet” tasting cookie or cake. The great news is that because of the numerous resources of healthy alternatives, we can enjoy a healthy and nutritious “dessert” on occasion. These cookies are made with almond flour and coconut, with no added sugars. The chocolate chips are from Lily’s Non-GMO brand and are sweetened with Stevia. I have to admit, they are really yummy!  Bon Appétit!

Mix the following dry ingredients together:

1/2 to 1 cup  chocolate chips

2 ½ cups almond flour

1 cup shredded coconut

¼ cup of Monk Fruit or sweetened to taste with Stevia

1 tsp. salt

1 tsp. baking soda

1 tsp. cinnamon

1 tsp. nutmeg

In a separate bowl, whisk the following:

3 free-range eggs (If you do not want to use eggs, you can use 3 tablespoons ground flax missed in ¼ cup water)

1/3 cup melted coconut oil

1 tsp. almond flavoring

Mix the wet with the dry ingredients.

Wet your hands and make small balls.

Place on a cookie sheet covered with parchment paper.

Press down with a wet fork.

Bake at 350 F for about 10-13 minutes, depending on how crisp you would like them.

Enjoy hot out of the oven or cool in the refrigerator.
