Ingredients

Main Ingredients

  • 2 avocados (peeled, pit removed)
  • 1/4 cup almond flour
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/2 cup coconut sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda

Optional Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to ensure it is hot and ready for baking the cookies.
  2. Blend Ingredients: Combine the avocados, almond flour, cocoa powder, coconut sugar, eggs, and baking soda in a food processor and blend until the mixture is completely smooth and well incorporated.
  3. Add Chocolate Chips: If you are using chocolate chips, fold them into the batter gently by hand to avoid overmixing.
  4. Prepare Baking Sheet: Line a baking pan with a lightly greased sheet of foil or a non-stick silicone baking mat to prevent sticking.
  5. Form Cookies: Use about a tablespoon of batter for each cookie, spooning them onto the prepared baking pan spaced evenly apart.
  6. Bake Cookies: Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 10 minutes, or until set and slightly firm to the touch.
  7. Cool and Store: Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool to room temperature. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 2-3 days or freeze for up to a week.

Notes

  • Use ripe avocados for the best texture and flavor.
  • If you prefer a sweeter cookie, increase the coconut sugar slightly.
  • The cookies will be soft when warm but will firm up as they cool.
  • You can substitute almond flour with oat flour if needed, but texture may vary.
  • Make sure to store them in an airtight container to maintain freshness.
