Paleo Chocolate Chip Cookies (Edit recipe)

As a kid chocolate chip cookies were the first thing I perfected. I actually worked at our neighbor’s bakery in high school and college, and he would have me bake him chocolate chip cookies because he thought I had perfected the recipe. That was high praise. Of course, those were regular gluten filled cookies. Over the years since going paleo/AIP it took several attempts to learn how to work with almond flour, coconut flour and other ingredients I was unfamiliar with. My family thinks I have nailed the paleo chocolate chip cookies, I hope you agree and enjoy!

Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees.
Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.

In a small bowl combine, ghee, almond butter, sugar, vanilla, and egg, stir well to combine.
It helps if the ingredients are at room temperature.

Bake for 12-13 minutes, let cool completely on the baking sheet.

Notes

Store in an air-tight container for up to 3 days. Or you can freeze them, but it is best to separate levels with parchment paper so they don’t stick. These freeze well for up to one month.
