Ok this is it! When I first started this adventure I missed 2 things…chocolate chip cookies and pizza. Well, I’ve mastered them both now! Life is good.

Ingredients
- Dry Ingredients
- 1 cup almond flour
- 1/2 tsp himalayan salt
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 cup coconut sugar
- Wet Ingredients
- 1 tsp pure vanilla
- 1 egg
- 1/4 cup melted ghee or coconut oil
- Add Last
- 1/2 cup chocolate chips gluten, dairy, soy free
- 3/4 cup walnuts chopped
Directions
- Step 1 Turn on oven to 350 degrees.
- Step 2 Place the dry ingredients in your mixer on low.
- Step 3 Place the wet in a small bowl and whisk until blended
- Step 4 With processor on low, pour in the wet in with the dry and mix well.
- Step 5 Turn off the mixer and stir in the chocolate chips and the walnuts.
- Step 6 I use a mellon scoop to place them on a paper lined cookie sheet. Cook for 8-10 minutes.
- Step 7 Let cool, if you can. These are so soft and chewy. Just yummy!
- Step 8 They will keep in a plastic baggie in the fridge for 3 or 4 days. I usually freeze them so I don’t eat them all at once! Then I place a couple in the toaster oven to warm them up. Enjoy!
I'm Melinda Stevens and living the life of a beach bum was inevitable since my father was a lifeguard for the city of Los Angeles. My memories of growing up on John Street in Manhattan Beach, California were filled with joy, excitement and adventures; until my world, as I knew it, fell apart when we moved to Del Mar, California. My father was offered the position as Captain of the lifeguards and we started the slow migration to the small deserted stretch of beach in 1963. At twelve years old, this seemed like the end of my life. Remember, I’m writing with clear hindsight now, ok somewhat clearer… Little did I know this would be the beginning of a new journey and give a bit more clarity to many of the events that led me to this new cooking adventure.
Do you have a recommendation for the chocolate chips?
