mini chocolate chip cookies

despite the fact that portland has been experiencing unusually high temperatures lately, i've had a non-stop craving for chocolate chip cookies. sunday morning was chilly enough to justify turning on the oven, so i took advantage and baked these little treats.


mini chocolate chip cookies adapted from here

1 1/2 cups almond flour
1/4 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp ground cinnamon
2 tbsp raw organic sugar
1/2 cup chocolate chips (i use whole foods vegan chips)
pink sea salt

2 tbsp coconut oil (softened)
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
1 egg

preheat oven to 350f. in a large bowl, mix almond flour, baking soda, cinnamon and sugar. in a separate bowl, mix coconut oil, vanilla extract and egg. pour wet mixture into dry, stir to combine, then mix in chocolate chips. roll dough into small balls and place on a baking sheet. flatten the dough balls a bit with your finger or a fork, then sprinkle the tops with the pink sea salt. bake for 12-14 minutes and let cool completely before serving.
