Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the softened unsalted butter, granulated sugar, and light brown sugar. Using an electric mixer, cream the mixture on medium speed until it’s light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
- Beat in the large egg and vanilla extract until fully incorporated. Scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the almond flour, sea salt, and baking soda. This ensures even distribution of the dry ingredients.
- Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Gently fold in the gluten-free rolled oats and dark chocolate chips. If you want to add more chocolate on top, feel free to reserve some chips.
- Using a cookie scoop or spoon, drop tablespoon-sized portions of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. The centers will appear slightly underbaked; they will firm up as they cool.
- Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Enjoy your Gluten Free Almond Flour Oatmeal Chip Cookies with a glass of milk or your favorite dairy-free alternative!
Notes
- Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one week.
- Freeze cookies for up to 3 months, layered with parchment paper.
- For vegan options, use coconut oil instead of butter and a flax egg instead of a regular egg.
