Almond Flour Chocolate Chip Cookies

Carolyn
These almond flour chocolate chip cookies feature crackled tops, crispy edges, and chewy middles! They're packed with chocolate chips and boast a slight nuttiness from the almond flour. They're highly addictive.

Equipment

  • Stand Mixer with the Paddle Attachment or hand mixer

Ingredients
  

  • 1 stick Unsalted butter Also equal to 8 tablespoons or 4 oz.
  • cup Brown sugar, packed
  • cup Sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 large Egg
  • 2 ¼ cup Almond flour
  • ½ teaspoon Baking soda
  • ¼ teaspoon Kosher salt
  • 1 ¼ cup Semisweet Chocolate Chips

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a sheet pan with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
  • Cream butter, brown sugar, and sugar on medium speed until light and fluffy - approximately three minutes.
  • Add the egg and vanilla, then beat until incorporated. Stop the mixer and scrape down the sides of the bowl if necessary.
  • Add almond flour, baking soda, and salt to the butter mixture and beat on low speed until a cookie dough forms.
  • Fold or beat in the chocolate chips.
  • Use a small cookie scoop to scoop 8 cookies onto the sheet pan. Give them space to spread. Bake for 11 minutes or until the edges turn golden brown.
  • For bigger cookies, increase the baking time by a couple of minutes.
  • Let the cookies cool on the sheet pan for at least 5 minutes. Transfer to a cooling rack and repeat with the remaining cookie dough.

Notes

When I used a bigger cookie scoop, I increased the baking time to 13 minutes. The edges should be golden brown but the middles should look slightly underbaked.
