Ingredients
• 1 large egg
• 1C Almond butter
• 1/2C Brown sugar
• 1 tsp Baking soda
• ½ tsp vanilla essence
• 1C Chocolate chips
Instructions
1. Preheat the oven to 180°C. In a medium-sized bowl, whisk the egg until well beaten. Add the almond butter and stir to combine, then mix in the brown sugar, baking soda, and vanilla extract. Stir everything together thoroughly—it might take some effort depending on the consistency of your almond butter. Finally, fold in the chocolate chips until evenly mixed.
2. Spoon out portions of the dough, roughly 1.5 tablespoons each, and place them on the prepared baking tray. Lightly flatten each mound with the back of a spoon. If the dough feels a bit oily from
the almond butter, you can gently blot it with a paper towel. For an extra touch, press a few chocolate chips onto the top of each cookie if you like.
3. Bake for 10 minutes. The cookies will appear quite soft when you take them out—that’s perfectly normal! If you prefer a crispier texture, bake them for up to 12 minutes.
4. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 10 minutes before moving them to a wire rack to cool completely. Enjoy!
