Today we’d like to share with you one of our favourite sweet treat recipes which we throw together when we have friends over or we’re just in the need for a cookie (or two!).

The best chocolate chips are Sainsbury’s Taste the Difference 70% but if you can’t get those then please just crush up some Green and Blacks 70% because the alternatives are really poor quality and contain crazy amounts of sugar.

Almond Flour Chocolate Chip Cookies

Makes: 8 large cookies or 12 smaller ones

Prep: 5 minutes

Cook: 10 to 15 minutes

Cool: 20 to 30 minutes

Ingredients:

100g ground almond flour

100g Doves Farm Gluten Free Self Raising Flour (or organic self raising if prefer not GF)

½ teaspoon baking soda

½ cup melted Kerrygold butter

¼ cup Billingtons golden granulated sugar

2 large egg whites whisked (lose the yolks)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

½ cup dried blueberries

½ cup chocolate chips or smashed up 70% Green and Blacks

Instructions:

Place all ingredients in a food processor or bowl and mix well until all combined

Scoop dough one tablespoon at a time onto a parchment lined baking sheet

Press balls of dough down so they are very flat, wetting your hand if the dough is sticky

Bake at 170 for 15-20 minutes turning once or twice.

Allow to cool for up to 30 minutes so they go crispy.

Serve with a large mug of organic coffee or proper tea.

Don’t keep them all to yourself because they are calorie dense!
