Ingredients
  • 1½ cups teff flour (Bob’s Red Mill makes this, available at Whole Foods)
  • ¼ tsp kosher salt
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1 cup natural unsweetened almond butter (smooth or chunky)
  • ½ cup unsweetened almond milk
  • ½ cup maple syrup
  • ½ cup semi-sweet or dark chocolate chips (I love Enjoy Life mini-chips: gluten-, dairy- & soy-free chocolate!)
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  2. Combine all dry ingredients in one bowl. Blend almond butter, almond milk and maple syrup in another bowl; pour wet ingredients over dry and blend until just combined – don’t over mix. Gently stir in chocolate chips. Drop batter by heaping teaspoon onto cookie sheet. Use a fork to make a cross-hatch design. Bake for 12-13 minutes – don’t over bake! Remove from oven and place on wire rack to cool.
