I’m totally obsessed. Let’s get into the details so you can make them ASAP!
What You Need to Make These Espresso Chocolate Chip Cookies
Whenever I add espresso powder to baking recipes I use this espresso powder, which is gluten free, non GMO and tastes great!
Here’s everything you’ll need to make the cookies:
- smooth almond butter, or cashew butter
- refined coconut oil, soft
- pure maple sugar, or coconut sugar
- egg
- pure vanilla extract
- blanched almond flour
- tapioca flour
- espresso powder
- baking soda
- fine sea salt
- dark chocolate chips
How to Make Espresso Chocolate Chip Cookies
Preheat your oven to 350°F and line 2 large baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, combine the nut butter with the coconut oil, maple sugar, egg and vanilla. Use an electric hand mixer or whisk to beat the mixture until creamy.
To the same bowl, add the almond flour, espresso powder and tapioca flour, baking soda and salt.
Stir or blend with a mixer until a cookie dough forms, then stir in the chocolate chips.
*Tip – when working with natural nut butters, the dough can feel greasy. This is normal and won’t affect the result!
Use a medium cookie scoop (1.5 tbsps) to scoop the dough 2” apart on the parchment lined baking sheet.
The cookies will spread, so make sure they have space. You’ll make 17-18 cookies total, so you’ll need two separate batches.
Press down very gently in the center of each cookie, but not too much to flatten them since they spread on their own.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes, or until just beginning to turn light brown around the edges. Do not over-bake to keep the middles chewy!
Remove and cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then carefully transfer to a cooling rack to fully cool.
Cookies should be stored in a container at room temperature for up to 3-4 days.
Grab your ingredients and get your oven preheated because it’s time to bake – let’s go!
