In a medium bowl combine the almond flour, coconut sugar, coconut flour, cinnamon, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
In a large bowl or mixer combine the eggs, oil, and vanilla extract.
Slowly add in the dry ingredients, mixing until well combined. Fold in the chocolate chips.
Line cookie sheets with parchment paper or silicone mats. Using a cookie scoop or two spoons, spoon out dough onto the lined cookie sheets about 1 1/2 to 2 inches about.
Transfer the baking sheets to the freezer and freeze the dough for 45 minutes, or refrigerate for 2 hours.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Remove the cookie sheets from the freezer or refrigerator and bake for 15 minutes. Cool on baking sheets for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Makes 18 to 24 cookies depending on the size of the cookies you make.
- This recipe calls for coconut oil instead of vegetable oil. This swap reduces the amounts of omega 6 found in vegetable oil and replaces it with healthier medium chain triglycerides (MCTs) found in coconut oil.
- I've swapped out regular flour that has gluten for almond flour and coconut flour.
- I've replaced regular sugar with coconut sugar.
- I make my own paleo baking powder at home. It's easy!
- I used Enjoy Life Dark Chocolate Chips which are vegan, dairy-free, and paleo friendly.
