Ingredients
UnitsScale
Avocado Mixture:
1 ripe avocado (mashed, about 1/2 cup)
1/2cup granulated erythritol or monk fruit sweetener
1 large egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Dry Ingredients:
1 1/4cups almond flour
1/4cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
Additional:
1/2cup sugar-free chocolate chips or chunks
Instructions
Preheat the oven: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Prepare the avocado mixture: In a medium bowl, mash the avocado until smooth. Whisk in the sweetener, egg, and vanilla extract until well combined.
Mix the dry ingredients: In a separate bowl, combine the almond flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt. Gradually stir the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until a soft dough forms.
Add chocolate chips: Fold in the chocolate chips or chunks.
Bake: Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough onto the prepared baking sheet. Flatten slightly and bake for 10–12 minutes, or until set around the edges but still soft in the center.
Cool and serve: Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
Notes
These cookies are soft and brownie-like.
Store in the fridge for up to 5 days or freeze for longer storage.
