Healthy Chocolate Chip Cookies Chewy Chocolate Chip Cookie Recipe Ingredients • 1/2 cup coconut flour • 1/2 cup date-sweetened chocolate chips • 1/3 cup pitted dates (soaked in warm water for 10 minutes) • 2 large eggs • 1/4 cup maple syrup • 1/4 tsp baking powder • 1/4 cup melted butter (or coconut oil) Instructions 1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. 2. Blend Dates: In a blender or food processor, blend the soaked dates into a paste. 3. Mix Wet Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk the eggs. Add the date paste, melted butter, and maple syrup. Mix until well combined. 4. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, combine the coconut flour and baking powder. 5. Combine Wet & Dry: Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet mixture, stirring until a dough forms. 6. Fold in Chocolate Chips: Gently fold the date-sweetened chocolate chips into the dough. 7. Form Cookies: Scoop about 1-2 tablespoons of dough per cookie onto the prepared baking sheet. Flatten slightly with your fingers or a spoon, as these cookies won’t spread much. 8. Bake: Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown. 9. Cool & Enjoy: Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack. Enjoy warm or at room temperature! Tips • Store in an airtight container at room temperature for 2-3 days or in the fridge for up to a week. • For extra chewiness, add a teaspoon of vanilla extract to the wet ingredients.
