Servings 8 cookies
Calories 256kcal
Ingredients
- 110 g almond flour
- 1 large egg
- 20 ml extra virgin olive oil
- 30 g erythritol
- 25 g 100% cocoa chocolate bar chopped to create small chocolate chunks
- 1 g baking powder
- 1 g xanthan gum
- a pinch of sea salt
- a pinch of nutmeg
Instructions
- Mix all the dry ingredients in a bowl and, for now, keep the chocolate in a separate container. Add the olive oil and the egg, then mix everything well with a spoon until you get a proper cookie dough that holds well together; place the bowl in the fridge for 5-10 minutes. In the meantime, preheat the oven at 180°C.
- Remove the bowl from the fridge, add the chocolate chunks and mix well. Shae the cookies with your hands, keeping in mind that their shape won't change much while cooking. Use parchment paper or a reusable baking mat; bake for 12-17 minutes, depending on how you like your cookies and how thick they are. Once you remove the baking tray from the oven, place the cookies straight away on a cooling rack.
Notes
Instead of store-bought almond flour, you can opt for a homemade version: simply use a food processor and whole almonds to create a fine flour.
