I have to say that these gluten-free or grain-free chocolate chip cookies are the best I’ve had! When baking grain-free I like to combine almond flour and coconut flour. I feel that what one flour lacks the other makes up for.

Coconut flour alone can be a bit crumbly and almond flour can be a bit dense and heavy, but together they make a darn good cookie! I think Chocolate chip cookies may just be one of my favorite treats, so having a healthier version like this is a must!

For the chocolate chips I used this brand. I like them because they don’t contain GMOs or weird additives like soy lecithin.

Things To Add To These Almond Flour Chocolate Chip Cookies;

  • Mix up the chocolate chips and try adding white chocolate
  • Depending on the time of year you could add some cinnamon for a festive feel
  • Adding orange zest gives a delicious flavour (especially with dark chocolate)
  • You could also sub the chocolate chips for dried fruit such as cranberries if you prefer

Easy, delicious and very moreish grain free almond flour chocolate chip cookies
Course: Dessert
Cuisine: American
Keyword: Almond flour cookies, healthy cookies
Servings: 12 -16 cookies
Calories: 213 kcal
Author: Hannah Healy
Ingredients
  • 1 cup almond flour
  • 1/3 cup coconut flour
  • 3/4 cup coconut sugar
  • 1/2 cup coconut oil
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • 2 pastured eggs
  • 3/4 cup chocolate chips
Instructions
  1. Pre-heat the oven to 350°F

  2. In a food processor or mixer combine all ingredients except the chocolate chips and mix well. Make sure you soften or melt the coconut oil so it's easier to combine.
  3. Gently fold in the chocolate chips manually with a spoon (do not mix it with the food processor or it will chop up all the chocolate chips).
  4. Take small bits of the dough and shape into a round cookie and place on a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper or silpat.
  5. Bake for 10-15 minutes or until slightly browned on top. If you feel the cookies right out of the oven they may feel a bit soft, but allow them to cool and they will harden.

    Hi Hannah!

    These look wonderful. I agree with you on combining the two flours. I love the texture it brings. I can’t wait to try your recipe.

    I have a question are these a crispy cookie or a chewy cookie?

      These are a more chewy variety, but with a slight crisp on the outside 🙂

    I’m allergic to tree nuts – except for peanuts and coconut. I wonder if I could substitute peanut flour for coconut flour….

      I meant to say peanut flour for almond flour.

        I haven’t used peanut flour before. If you try it let us know how it turns out!

    These cookies are TO DIE FOR! Thank you so so much for sharing this recipe!
    After nearly one year of failed GF cookie recipes, I’m so glad you posted this keeper. I know that this is my new go-to choc chip cookie recipe when the husband tells me I can stop trying other recipes because he only wants me to make this one henceforth. If you like soft cookies, this recipe is IT.
    I used light brown sugar and reduced it to 1/2 cup instead of 3/4 cup. I also used the electric hand mixer to cream my liquid ingredients together really well before adding the dry ingredients. The flavor and texture is just like “real” cookies! 🙂

      (Clarification: after me trying out a variety of GF cookie recipes for nearly the past year, and all of those recipes being failures, I’m glad I found yours- which is a keeper!)

    Will honey work, as to substitute coconut sugar?

    Reply
    • Healy Real Food Vegetarian says

      July 24, 2013 at 4:11 pm

      Probably not. It would change the texture to use a wet ingredient in place of a dry ingredient.

        yes! I made these last night, and I tried it with honey because I didn’t have any coconut flour on hand. Instead of using the same amount of honey to substitute the coconut sugar, I used about a 1/3 cup without filling it to the top completely. It worked out great, although I think they were definitely a bit chewier than if sugar had been used. But still very delicious nonetheless. Thank you for the wonderful recipe (:

    Is it 1/2 cup melted coconut oil? Or just out of the jar coconut oil? My cookies were great but slightly soft and oily

    Made these the other day and they were delicious! Added a little pecan flour too. I’m about to make them again with salted pecans and white chocolate. Thanks for sharing!

    OM-YUM! I’ve made a lot of different GF cookie recipes in 2+ years, but these are now in my top 2 rotation! I used 1/3 C Truvia, as that’s what I use for sweetener…Awesome! Thanks for a great recipe! 🙂
