Equipment

  • Sheet pan
  • Parchment paper

Ingredients

  • 1 cup whole wheat flour (or substitute all purpose flour)
  • 1/2 cup maple syrup
  • 1/2 cup almond butter (or substitute any other type of unsweetened nut butter or seed butter)
  • 1/2 cup dark chocolate chips
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Add the whole wheat flour, baking powder, and salt to a mixing bowl, then mix to combine.
  • Add the maple syrup, almond butter, vanilla extract, and dark chocolate chips, then use your hands to mix thoroughly until a cookie dough texture is formed (this is a sticky job so wear kitchen gloves if you prefer).
  • Use your hands to roll the dough into 16 evenly sized balls, and place them, evenly spaced, on a sheet pan lined with parchment paper.
  • Use your fingers to press the dough balls into flatter circle shapes.
  • Bake at 375 degrees Fahrenheit for 12-14 minutes (12 if you like them soft and chewier, 14 if you like them crispier).
  • Let the cookies cool off before removing from the pan and serving.

Notes

  • Store these maple syrup chocolate chip cookies in an airtight container in the fridge for up to five days or freeze them for up to six months.
