Spicy Chocolate Chips Cookies

They may not be very pretty, but they sure tastes good and this recipe has no grains and very little sugar!

Another experiment was a success. This time taking my Ginger Cookies in a Snap! recipe and converting it to chocolate chip cookes.

Makes 16 cookies at 108 calories each.

INGREDIENTS:

• 1 cup of almond flour - blanched

• ¼ cup chickpea flour

• 5 Tbs of erythritol (this is a natural low glycemic sugar alcohol - all natural, NOT artificial)

• ½ tsp baking powder

• ½ cup 60% Cacao bitter sweet chocolate chips

• 1 tsp of ground cinnamon

• ½ tsp Allspice

• sprinkle of Himalayan salt

• 1 tsp pure vanilla extract

• 1 egg

• 1 Tb of coconut oil, melted

• 2 Tbs of Maple Syrup

• 2 Tbs of water

INSTRUCTIONS:

• Preheat oven to 350º. Prepare cookie sheet with parchment paper, a baking stone or lightly greased cookie sheet.

• Mix together all dry ingredients in a bowl.

• Add egg, vanilla, coconut oil, syrup and water and stir until completely mixed and you have a wet dough.

• Roll about 1 tablespoon size balls and gently press down to form a round cookie.

• Bake for about 20 minutes or until lightly golden and firm.

• Take out of the oven and let cool before eating.

ENJOY!

*note: these are not extremely pretty to look at - a little darker than most chocolate chip cookies, but the flavor is there, they are moist and so much better for you!
