Flourless Chocolate Chip Almond Cookies image

Delicious, with healthy fat from almonds, and only 5.5 grams net carbs per cookie. If you are avoiding wheat or counting carbs, give these a try. I created them for my husband who has to reduce his carb intake in order to control his blood sugar.

Time 20m

Yield 15 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 cup almond meal
1/4 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 egg
1/4 cup chocolate chips (mini chips work best)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 and grease 1 cookie sheet.
  • Stir together almond meal, sugar and baking soda in a large bowl.
  • Add beaten egg, chocolate chips and vanilla extract and mix until well combined.
  • Place dough balls one inch apart on cookie sheet . You should be able to fit all 15 on the single cookie sheet.
  • Bake until puffed and golden, about 10 minutes.
  • Cool cookies on baking sheet about 2 minutes and then transfer to paper towels or rack to cool.
  • Note: I personally avoid artificial sweeteners, so I don't know how they would taste made with splenda.
