Easy Almond Flour Chocolate Chip Cookies

A large plate of Easy Almond Flour Chocolate Chip Cookies with chocolate chips scattered around the plate.Gluten-free and grain-free, these Easy Almond Flour Chocolate Chip Cookies are like a miracle for anyone in your life who is gluten-free and misses good ol’ chocolate chip cookies. I have a lot of family members who can’t have gluten, so I am always looking for/creating recipes that they can have when they come to visit. Grandma’s Monster Cookies are another fantastic cookie recipe they really enjoy!

They are chewy and buttery with just the right amount of sweet/salty to make you want to eat one more, and then one more, and then one more…

I can’t tell you how strongly I suggest you make these. Even if you can have gluten, these are absolutely delicious cookies. And just think, with all that protein from the almond flour, they are basically a health food. 🙂

what is almond flour?

Almond flour is made from ground almonds. First, the almonds are boiled to remove the skins. Then the almonds are ground and sifted to make a fine flour-like consistency.

can I substitute the almond flour for another gluten-free flour?

For the best quality and flavor, I recommend using almond flour in this recipe. Make sure you use almond flour and not almond meal, which is made with the skin still on the almonds.

Absolutely. If your family is anything like mine, these cookies won’t last long around the house. You can even roll the dough into balls and freeze them to bake later.

can I add nuts to this recipe?

Yes, you can. I recommend adding 1/2 cup walnuts or pecans to the dough.

how should I store the cookies?

In an airtight container on the counter for up to a week.
