Description

Enjoy the classic Almond Joy flavors in a chewy, gluten-free cookie! This flourless recipe is easy to make and perfect for those with dietary restrictions or anyone seeking a healthier treat. These flourless Almond Joy cookies bring together coconut, almonds, and chocolate for an irresistible, guilt-free indulgence.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups shredded coconut (unsweetened)
  • 1 cup almond flour (or almond meal)
  • 1/2 cup coconut oil, melted
  • 1/2 cup honey (or maple syrup for a vegan option)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup dark chocolate chips
  • 1/2 cup slivered almonds

Instructions

  1. Combine the shredded coconut, almond flour, and salt in a large mixing bowl. Mix well.
  2. Add the melted coconut oil, honey (or maple syrup), and vanilla extract to the bowl with the dry ingredients. Stir until thoroughly combined. The mixture should be slightly sticky.
  3. Gently fold in the dark chocolate chips and slivered almonds. Be careful not to overmix.
  4. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  5. Scoop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between each cookie.
  6. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown.
  7. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • Use unsweetened shredded coconut to control the sweetness.
  • Melt the coconut oil completely for a smooth texture.
  • Don’t overbake; cookies should be slightly soft in the center.
  • For richer chocolate flavor, use dark chocolate chips with a higher cocoa percentage.
  • Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
