Chocolate Chip Cookies: A Classic Treat with Almond Flour and Coconut Flour

These chocolate chip cookies are made with a blend of almond flour and coconut flour, giving them a nutty, slightly chewy texture. They're sweetened with maple syrup and coconut oil, and flavored with vanilla extract. The cookies are studded with chocolate chips, and they're perfect for a healthy and satisfying snack or dessert.

Chocolate chip cookies are a classic American treat, but they're often made with refined flour and sugar. This recipe is a healthier take on the classic cookie, using almond flour and coconut flour instead of refined flour, and maple syrup instead of sugar. The result is a cookie that's still delicious and satisfying, but it's also lower in carbs and calories.
