Servings 16
Calories 145kcal
Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon ground flaxseed
- 2 tablespoons water
- 1 cup gluten-free rolled oats
- ¾ cup almond flour
- ¾ cup unsweetened shredded coconut
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ¼ teaspoon cinnamon
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ⅓ cup maple syrup, room temperature
- ¼ cup coconut oil, melted and cooled
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ⅓ cup vegan white chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. Place ground flaxseed and water in a small cup to make a flax egg and set aside.
- In a large bowl, whisk together all the dry ingredients (oats, almond flour, shredded coconut, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt).
- Add flaxseed mixture (flax egg), maple syrup, melted coconut oil, and vanilla extract to the almond flour mixture. Stir with a rubber spatula until combined. Fold in vegan white chocolate chips.
- Scoop about 1 ½ tablespoons or #40 cookie scoop (slightly heaping) of dough and pack it before placing onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Flatten cookie dough balls halfway down with the palm of your hand.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes or until the edges of the cookies are golden brown (11 minutes is perfect for my oven). Let the baked cookies cool completely on the baking sheet before removing and storing.
Notes
Watch the cookies at the end of baking. The edges should be golden brown and the center a paler color, but if left in the oven too long, they will quickly crisp up.
To store: Keep cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 4 days.
