Ingredients
Quantities are shown as originally provided.
- 1 cup almond flour
- 1/3 cup coconut sugar
- 1 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/8 tsp salt
- 1 tbsp almond butter I
- 3 tbsp water
- 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
- 1/4 tsp almond extract
- 1/2 cup chocolate chips (I used 1/4 cup milk chocolate chips and 1/4 cup semi sweet chocolate chips)
Instructions
- 1
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- 2
Add almond flour, coconut sugar, baking powder, and salt to a bowl and mix well, using a spoon.
- 3
Add almond butter and 1 tbsp water to a microwave safe bowl and microwave for 30 seconds or until almond butter is runny and can be easily dissolved with the water.
- 4
Add this almond butter/water mix to the bowl with the almond flour and other dry ingredients and mix well.
- 5
Add in the other 2 tbsp of water, and the almond extract and vanilla extract and mix well.
- 6
The mixture will be crumbly. But, if you gather up a spoonful or so and form it into a ball with your fingertips, it should bind well together. If it doesn’t, then add one or two more tbsp of water and form into balls.
- 7
Place formed balls into a silpat lined baking tray (or parchment lined one) and bake for 10-12 minutes at 350 degrees.

Take out of the oven and let cool for a few minutes and then enjoy!
