Micah's Chocolate Chip Cookies

I'm calling these Micah's because my youngest son is allergic to dairy and eggs. Finding egg free Paleo recipes is hard, especially baked goods. I wanted to make the kids one of their all time favorites from our pre-Paleo days, CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES!! Alas I could not find an egg less, dairy free, gluten free, wheat free, refined sugar free.... go figure ;) So with out further a-do....

2 cups almond flour
1 cup unsweetened shredded coconut
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp salt
4 tbs flax meal
6 tbs water
1/2 cup melted coconut oil
1/2 cup honey
1 tsp vanilla extract
2 cups Enjoy Life chocolate chips

1. Preheat oven to 375
2. In a medium sized mixing bowl combine dry ingredients
3. In a small mixing bowl beat flax meal and water, then mix in the remaining wet ingredients with a hand mixer
4. Combine wet and dry ingredients
5. STIR in chocolate chips
6. Drop tablespoon sized balls of dough on a parchment lined baking sheet
7. Bake for 8-10 minutes
8. Let cool, and enjoy!

  1. Yes, it's near impossible to find gluten free, that is also egg free! Thanks for these. :-)

    1. One of my sons has a gluten intollerance and my other son has a dairy and egg intollerance (possibly allergy, we have not had a blood test done). so baking around here takes some imagination! FYI I just posted an Apple Crisp that is gluten and egg free :)
