A Message From Our Nutritionist

These Gluten-free cookies are really easy to make and are on the healthier side.  I find most cookie recipes use too much sugar and fat.  Treats in moderation!

Prep Time: 15 min

Cook Time: 10-12 min

Portions: 10

Ingredients

  • ⅓ Cup coconut flour

  • ¼ Cup dark chocolate chips

  • 2 eggs (at room temperature)

  • ¼  Cup melted coconut oil

  • ¼  Cup honey

  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

  • pinch sea salt

  • ⅛ Cup chopped walnuts

  • ⅛ Cup chopped dried cranberries

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
  2. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  3. In a mixing bowl, blend melted coconut oil and eggs, honey and vanilla.
  4. Add coconut flour, salt and combine.
  5. Mix in chocolate chips, cranberries and walnuts.
  6. Form 10 cookies (as they will not spread while baking). 
  7. Bake 10-12 mins.  Cool and transfer to a sealed container.  

NUTRITIONIST’S TIP:
These cookies are a perfect gluten free snack. They could also be vegan by replacing regular chocolate chips with a vegan chocolate chip and honey for maple syrup.  They don’t last very long without getting stale, maybe 2 days.  You could easily substitute another type of nut for the walnuts or sub raisins for the dried cranberries.
