These gluten free chocolate chip cookies are easy peasy and down right delightful. They’re great for a week day pick-me-up or with an afternoon coffee, and better yet, you can enjoy them without any guilt because they are made without any oil or refined sugar!
Heat up the oven and grab a big glass of milk because you’re going to love these tasty treats! 🍪
Hey there homies! How’s it going?? I’m loaded up on these gluten free chocolate chip cookies, so I’m feeling pretty good! 🙂
I had to make two batches this weekend because the first didn’t turn out 🤷🏻♀️ (yes, I didn’t make my own recipe right 🙈) and I was bound and determined to shoot them this weekend, so cue the second batch!
Luckily #2 turned out just perfect!
And I can’t say I was too mad about having a extra cookies laying around the house 😏
When it comes to finding a good store-bought gluten free cookie, it’s tough. My top choices are Tate’s, Simple Mills and Glutino.
Though nothing mimics a warm, soft and gooey homemade chocolate chip cookie right out of the oven.
That’s why you’re going to love this recipe! Even my dad said, quote “shoot sis, if you could figure out how to keep these good on the shelf, you’d be a millionaire!”
And that’s coming from my dad who is the pickiest eater on the face of the earth. Also, Nick ate the entire first batch in two days, so I must’ve done something right! 👍🏼
Healthy Gluten Free Chocolate Chip Cookie Ingredients
So let’s talk about the ingredients! NO OIL, NO BUTTER, NO REFINED SUGAR. NO XANTHAN GUM. Just pure healthy goodness!
Here’s what you’ll need:
- almond flour
- coconut flour
- baking soda
- egg
- vanilla greek yogurt
- vanilla extract
- brown sugar
- coconut sugar
- chocolate chips
- pink Himalayan sea salt
I’m a big fan of Bob’s Red Mill Almond Flour, it’s super fine and not as grainy as some other brands. You can buy a big bag at Target, or if you’re local Hy-Vee (check out my grocery store price comparison list for the best deals!)
I also love Enjoy Life Chocolate Chips! They are made with wholesome ingredients and they’re dairy free! So that’s a win in my book.
You likely already have all these ingredients in your pantry, and if you don’t stock up, because you’re going to want to make these cookies on repeat!
