- Whisk the almond flour, coconut flour, hemp seeds, flax meal, baking soda, xanthan gum, psyllium powder, salt and cinnamon in a bowl and set aside. 1:01
- In a larger bowl, beat the softened butter with the brown sweetener and powdered monk fruit with a hand mixer, slowly at first, until fluffy. 1:56
- Beat in the eggs and vanilla until smooth. 2:53
- Add the dry ingredients and mix well into a thick dough. 3:22
- Mix in the chopped walnuts and chocolate chips. 3:45
- Grease two baking trays with butter and scoop heaping tablespoons of dough a few inches apart; flatten them a little. 4:13
- Bake at 180°C (350°F) for 10–12 minutes, until the edges are lightly browned. Let them cool well before lifting them off the trays. 4:39
Tip. Swap the walnuts for pecans or slivered almonds, or leave them out. Bake a little longer for a crunchier cookie. Keeps a week airtight, or freeze.

0.9 mg a serve, mostly from hemp seeds (35%). Carries oxygen in your blood. Iron from plants absorbs better with vitamin C in the same meal — lemon, tomato or capsicum.
Vitamin A5%

Vitamin D0%
0.1 µg a serve, mostly from eggs (98%). 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 K0%
0.5 µg a serve, mostly from salted butter (73%). 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.
