ingredients
 

  • ¾ cup chickpea flour
  • ¼ cup coconut flour
  • ¼ cup Dutch processed cocoa powder
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ¼ cup sugar
  • 1 tablespoon flax meal (ground flax seeds)
  • 6 tablespoons water
  • ⅓ cup coconut oil, melted
  • 3 tablespoons maple syrup
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 oz dark chocolate, roughly chopped

instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the chickpea flour, coconut flour, cocoa, baking soda, and sugar.
  • Add flax meal and water to a medium bowl and whisk until a thin paste forms. Then, whisk in coconut oil, maple syrup, and vanilla extract. Stir in the chocolate and let the dough rest for a couple of minutes to thicken.
  • Roll about 2 tablespoons of the dough into golf-ball sized balls, and place onto the baking sheet. Flatten each cookie slightly with your hand.
  • Bake for 10 to 12 minutes or until the edges feel slightly crisp. Cool the cookies for a few minutes on the pan before removing and cooling them completely on a rack.
  • You can keep these cookies stored in an airtight container for at least 3 days.
