Ingredients
- 1 cup almond flour
- 1/2 cup oat flour
- 1/2 cup black sesame powder
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/4 cup pure maple syrup
- 1/4 cup melted coconut oil
- 1/4 cup black sesame paste
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 flax egg (1 Tbsp ground flaxseed + 3 Tbsp water)
- 1/3-1/2 cup dark chocolate chips, plus more for topping
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line a pan with a silicone mat or parchment paper.
- In a medium bowl, make the flax egg by combining the ground flaxseed and water. Stir and set aside for 5 minutes to thicken.
- In a large bowl, add the almond flour, oat flour, black sesame powder, baking soda, and salt. Whisk until combined and there are no clumps.
- In the bowl with the flax egg, add the maple syrup, melted coconut oil, black sesame paste, and vanilla. Whisk until well combined.
- Add the wet to the dry. Use a spatula to stir until combined. Batter will be thick. Fold in the chocolate chips. Use a cookie scoop (mine was 1.5 Tbsp) to scoop dough onto prepared pan. Add a few chocolate chips on top if desired. Slightly flatten the cookies with your palm, as they don’t spread much when baking. Bake for 12-14 minutes. Let it cool on the pan for 15 minutes, then remove and place on a wire rack to cool completely. Enjoy!
