This amazingly easy cookie recipe is gluten free and full of amazing flavors!  I came up with this idea from a dessert my mom used to make called 7-layer bars.  They are really high in sugar, and so I tried this recipe to make them a little more balanced!  I love the flavor of the maple syrup in these!  They are also dairy-free for those of you following a dairy-free diet.  Remember these are still considered dessert, so just because they are a little healthier, doesn’t mean you should eat all of them at once (although you will probably want to)!  Enjoy!

Ingredients:

2 cups Almond flour

1 cup Oats

1 tsp Baking Soda

½ tsp Salt

¼ cup Coconut Oil

¼ cup Maple Syrup

2 Eggs

1 tsp Vanilla

½ cup each of Chocolate Chips, Butterscotch Chips, and Sweetened Shredded Coconut

Directions:

  1. Preheat the oven to 375 F for conventional, or 350 F for convection.  Note that withe convection oven, you can reduce temperature by about 25 degrees from the conventional temperature, and you can reduce time 10-25% depending on the recipe.
  2. Mix almond flour, oats, baking soda and salt together in a small bowl then set it aside.
  3. Blend on low speed: coconut oil and maple syrup until mostly combine. The coconut oil may still be present in small balls, which is OK.  About 4 minutes.
  4. Add eggs and slowly and continue mixing on low for about 2 more minutes.
  5. Stir in chocolate chips, butterscotch chips, and coconut flakes.
  6. Form small balls on greased cooking sheet, then slightly press down.
  7. Bake at 375 F for about 12 minutes or until edges are slightly brown.

    These are so great- after trying them last night, I looked for the recipe today! Our family isn’t really big on butterscotch, so I’m thinking about swapping that for white chocolate chips of caramel bits. Thanks for sharing this recipe!
