Ingredients
Scale
Avocado Mixture:
- 1 ripe avocado (mashed, about ½ cup)
- ½ cup granulated erythritol or monk fruit sweetener
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Dry Ingredients:
- 1¼ cups almond flour
- ¼ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ¼ teaspoon salt
Additional:
- ½ cup 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.
