Serves: 16 cookies
Ingredients
  • ¾ cup creamy almond butter
  • ¼ cup tahini
  • ¾ cup coconut sugar (or brown sugar)
  • 1 Tablespoon finely ground espresso (optional)
  • 1 large egg (OR chia egg: 1 Tablespoon ground chia mixed with 3 Tablespoons water)
  • ½ teaspoon ground vanilla bean OR 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ¼ teaspoon sea salt
  • ⅓+ cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line two baking sheets with parchment.
  2. In a large bowl, mix together all ingredients except chocolate chips. I mix it with my hands in the end to make sure the ingredients are thoroughly combined.
  3. Mix in the chocolate chips.
  4. Use a small cookie scoop or spoon about 2 Tablespoons dough per cookie onto the parchment-lined baking sheet. Space 8 cookies per sheet to allow for spreading.
  5. Bake at 350 degrees for 5 minutes then check to see if the cookies have spread. Depending on the oil content of your nut butter, they may not spread. If they don't, gently flatten them a bit with the bottom of your spatula. Bake for another 4-6 minutes. Allow to cool completely.
  6. Store in an airtight container at room temperature.
ENJOY!!!
