Ingredients

• 1.5 cups Almond flour
• 0.5 cups Rolled oats
• 0.5 teaspoons Baking soda
• 0.25 teaspoons Sea salt
• 0.25 cups Coconut oil, melted
• 0.25 cups Unsweetened applesauce
• 0.25 cups Pure maple syrup
• 1 teaspoons Vanilla extract
• 0.5 cups Dark white chocolate chips (dairy-free if desired)
• 0.25 cups Chopped raw walnuts (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.

Step 2

In a mixing bowl, combine almond flour, rolled oats, baking soda, and sea salt. Mix well to ensure the dry ingredients are evenly distributed.

Step 3

In a separate bowl, whisk together the melted coconut oil, unsweetened applesauce, pure maple syrup, and vanilla extract until fully combined.

Step 4

Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients and stir until a dough forms. The dough will be moist but hold together when pressed.

Step 5

Gently fold in the dark white chocolate chips and chopped walnuts (if using) until evenly distributed throughout the dough.

Step 6

Using a tablespoon or small cookie scoop, portion the dough into balls and place them on the prepared baking sheet, leaving about two inches of space between each cookie.

Step 7

Use the palm of your hand or the bottom of a glass to gently flatten each cookie to your desired thickness.

Step 8

Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. Avoid overbaking to keep them soft and chewy.

Step 9

Remove the baking sheet from the oven and allow the cookies to cool on the pan for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 10

Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days or in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
