Gluten-Free Chocolate Almond Cookies

These cookies are nutty and chocolatey, two things that are always a win. We have been playing around with different nut butters and different flours, and this cookie is a nice addition to your arsenal as it gives you the feel of a chocolate chip cookie and is good for your gluten-free friends or family. We have a version on the site with peanut butter that does not have any type of flour whatsoever in it, but the almond flour in this cookie gives the cookie a heartier bite. Maybe we can then eat them for breakfast? 

Gluten Free Chocolate Almond Cookies
Makes about 1 dozen cookies
 
2 eggs
1 cup almond butter
1 cup brown sugar
½ cup almond flour
1 tsp baking powder
½ tsp salt
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 cup dark chocolate chips
 
Preheat oven to 350
 
In a medium bowl whisk the eggs, then add the rest of the ingredients. Once dough comes together, roll into about inch size balls. Place on a parchment lined baking sheet and bake for 11-13 minutes depending on your oven. Let cool on the sheet pan as cookies are crumbly when they are removed from the oven.
