Oh yeah…it’s time to officially put the first cookie recipe on the blog. And it’s a great one. It’s about time right? It all started this afternoon when I was craving something sweet. Since we’ve been avoiding wheat lately, I knew that this could be a challenge. Inspired by this gluten-free chocolate chip recipe, I went for it.

If I didn’t mention it, you probably wouldn’t know that there was no flour in this recipe. The princess said, “I can’t believe that these are glutton- free cookies!”.

You can use any chocolate chips you like, but if allergies or food intolerances are a concern, I recommend Enjoy Life mini semi-sweet chocolate chips.

That’s what I used in this recipe. They are dairy, nut and soy-free. I also used Bob’s Red Mill Almond Flour, organic coconut sugar and unsweetened shredded coconut.
