Instruction
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (175 degrees Celsius).
- The rolled oats, almond flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt should be mixed together in a large mixing dish. Mix thoroughly until everything is incorporated.
- The melted coconut oil, maple syrup, egg, and vanilla extract should be mixed together in a separate bowl using a whisk until they are completely smooth.
- Take the dry ingredients and combine them with the wet components until you get a dough that is thick and sticky.
- The dark chocolate chips should be folded into the mixture until they are spread equally throughout the dough.
- The dough should be portioned out using a tablespoon or cookie scoop, and then placed onto the baking sheet that has been prepared, making sure to leave some space between each set of cookies.
- Due to the fact that these cookies will not expand out very much while they are baking, you should gently flatten each cookie using the back of a spoon or your fingers.
- Baking in an oven that has been prepared for ten to twelve minutes, or until the edges are set and the tops are somewhat stiff to the touch, is expected.
- After removing the cookies from the oven, allow them to cool for five minutes on the baking sheet before moving them to a wire rack to finish cooling entirely.
