Almond Coconut chip Cookies





So, these are almost primal.. If you replace honey for the sugar you should be alright. We only had raw cinnamon honey so I've put regular ol' honey on my shopping list and we'll report back,

In the meantime, we made some deliciously coconutty cookies. If you haven't any almond meal, grinding up 1 1/2 cups (12oz) of almonds will do the trick.

1 1/2 Cups of Almond Meal
1/4 Cup of Coconut Oil, chilled (not liquified and warm)
1/4 Cup of Sugar (or 1/3 Cup of Honey)
1 Egg
1/4 Teaspoon of Salt (We used Sea Salt)
1/2 Teaspoon of Vanilla Extract
1/4 Teaspoon Baking Soda
1/4 Cup of Chocolate Chips (We used mini's)
1/4 Cup of Shredded Coconut

Preheat oven to 375.

Cream your oil and sugar (or honey) until smooth.
Mix in the egg.
Add almonds, vanilla, salt and baking soda. Once combined fold in your chocolate.

Line your baking sheet with parchment paper and scoop out your batter evening, flattening slightly with the back of your spoon.
Bake your cookies no more than 15 minutes until golden brown.

Try with chocolate almond milk or just some delicious cows milk!
