Equipment

  • 1 cookie scoop (whatever size you have handy)
  • 1 Baking sheet
  • 1 Mixing Bowl
  • 1 Whisk
  • 1 rubber spatula

Ingredients

  • 1 cup chickpea flour
  • ½ cup butter (or virgin coconut oil - I used plant-based butter)
  • ½ cup granular sweetener (try Sucanat, coconut sugar, or monk fruit)
  • 2 large eggs (room temperature)
  • 1 tsp. pure vanilla extract
  • 1 tsp. baking powder
  • 1 tbsp. chia seeds
  • ¼ tsp. salt
  • ½ cup dark chocolate chips (or whatever chocolate chips you are comfortable using)

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
    An oven display set to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • In a mixing bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients.

  • Add the wet ingredients.

  • Scrape the sides of the bowl with a rubber spatula to collect all the batter into the center of the bowl. Set in the fridge for 10 minutes. This will allow the chia seeds time to gel properly.

  • Using a dough scoop, scoop the cookie dough out onto your parchment-lined cookie sheet, allowing plenty of space because these will definitely spread.
    A cookie scoop rests on a baking sheet with six scoops of cookie dough lined up for baking.
  • Bake for 30 minutes. Note that ovens vary, so you may need to bake yours a few minutes less or a few minutes more. Bake until golden brown.

  • Let these cookies cool completely. These are not the type of cookies you can eat hot out of the oven. They must cool to firm up.
