Equipment

Ingredients

  • 1 cup unsalted peanut butter I suggest a creamy/runny one!
  • 7 Tablespoons vegan butter softened
  • 1/4 cup maple syrup
  • 3/4 cup + 2 Tablespoons brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 cups almond flour
  • 3/4 cup oat flour
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • ½ cup mini chocolate chips

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Add the softened butter and brown or coconut sugar to a bowl.
  • Beat together with an electric mixer until combined.
  • Add in the peanut butter, maple syrup, and vanilla. Mix until combined.
  • Fold in the almond flour, oat flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Mix to combine.
  • Fold in the chocolate chips until combined.
  • Scoop the cookie dough using a 1 1/2 tablespoon scoop onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  • Flatten the tops slightly as they won’t spread a ton during baking. Top with extra chocolate chips if desired.
  • Bake for 12-15 minutes or until lightly golden brown on the edges.
  • Let cool, then sprinkle with flaky salt and enjoy.
