Method

Tap a time to watch that step in the video.

  1. Heat the oven to 175°C (350°F) and line baking trays with baking paper.
  2. Whisk the almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a bowl. 0:37
  3. In a large bowl, beat the softened butter and sweetener with an electric mixer for 2–3 minutes until fluffy, then beat in the egg and vanilla. 1:16
  4. Mix in the dry ingredients a little at a time, then stir in the chocolate chips. 1:47
  5. Scoop 1-inch balls (about 1 tbsp each, around 18) onto the trays about 2.5 cm (1 inch) apart and flatten with a spatula or spoon. 2:33
  6. Bake 8–10 minutes, just until the edges turn golden. Leave on the tray 2–4 minutes to firm up, then cool on a wire rack. 2:44

Tip. Pull them out when the edges are golden even if the centres look soft; they firm up as they cool. Keep in an airtight container 3 days or freeze up to 3 months.

Vitamin E High21%

3.2 mg a serve, mostly from superfine almond flour (88%). An antioxidant that protects cell membranes. Nuts, seeds and plant oils such as olive oil are the main sources.

Magnesium Source12%

49 mg a serve, mostly from superfine almond flour (61%). Takes part in hundreds of reactions — energy, muscles, nerves, blood sugar and bones. Nuts, seeds, legumes and whole grains are good sources.

Vitamin A Source10%

94 µg a serve, mostly from unsalted butter (91%). Keeps eyes, skin and the immune system healthy. Orange vegetables and dark greens give beta-carotene, which the body turns into vitamin A.

Iron8%

1.4 mg a serve, mostly from sugar-free chocolate chips (58%). Carries oxygen in your blood. Iron from plants absorbs better with vitamin C in the same meal — lemon, tomato or capsicum.

Zinc8%

0.9 mg a serve, mostly from sugar-free chocolate chips (48%). Needed for immunity, wound healing, taste and growth. Meat, seafood, legumes, seeds and whole grains supply it.

Selenium6%

3.3 µg a serve, mostly from egg (52%). Part of the body's antioxidant enzymes and needed for thyroid hormones. Seafood, eggs, meat and Brazil nuts are rich sources.

Vitamin B124%

0.1 µg a serve, mostly from egg (71%). Keeps nerves and blood cells healthy. Found almost only in animal foods and fortified foods (some plant milks, nutritional yeast), so vegans need a reliable source.

Potassium3%

160 mg a serve, mostly from superfine almond flour (50%). Balances sodium to help control blood pressure and keeps muscles and nerves working. Beans, potatoes, leafy greens and fruit are rich sources.

Calcium3%

41 mg a serve, mostly from superfine almond flour (73%). Builds bones and teeth and helps muscles and nerves work. Dairy, calcium-set tofu, sardines with their bones and some greens supply it.

Folate3%

10 µg a serve, mostly from superfine almond flour (49%). Needed to make DNA and new cells — especially important before and in early pregnancy. Legumes and leafy greens are rich sources.

Omega-33%

0 g a serve, mostly from unsalted butter (91%). Omega-3 fats support the heart and brain. Oily fish give EPA and DHA; walnuts, flax, chia and canola give ALA, which the body converts only a little.

Vitamin D2%

0.3 µg a serve, mostly from unsalted butter (61%). Helps you absorb calcium for bones and supports muscles. Few foods have much — oily fish, eggs, UV-exposed mushrooms, fortified milks. Sunlight is the main source.

Vitamin B62%

0 mg a serve, mostly from superfine almond flour (46%). Helps turn food into energy and make brain messengers. Chickpeas, fish, poultry, potatoes and bananas are good sources.

Vitamin K1%

1.3 µg a serve, mostly from unsalted butter (65%). Needed for blood clotting and bones. Leafy greens and herbs are very rich in it. If you take warfarin, keep your intake steady and talk to your doctor.

Vitamin C0%

0 mg a serve. An antioxidant needed for collagen, immunity and iron absorption. Long cooking destroys some, so raw herbs, citrus and capsicum help.
