Cacao Avocado Cookies
INGREDIENTS:
1 1/2 ripe avocados (2 if they are really small)
1/2 cup cacao powder
1/2 cup coconut sugar
1/4 cup dark chocolate chips
1/2 tsp baking soda
pinch of sea salt
Optional: 1/4 tsp of pure vanilla extract. You can also add some flaky sea salt on top of the cookies right before you bake them.
INSTRUCTIONS:
Pre-heat over to 350 degrees.
Add all ingredients except for the optional flaky salt to a small blender and puree until ingredients are combined. It’s ok if there are still some small pieces of avocado visible in the batter. You can also mash the avocado first and then add the remaining ingredients until well combined.
Spray a cookie sheet with avocado oil or use a Silpat liner (I love these) and then form a small cookie scoop amount of dough on the baking sheet. I like to flatten the cookies slightly before I bake them as they won’t change shape during the baking process.
Bake for 12-15 minutes.
Makes 12 bite-sized cookies
I recommend refrigerating these cookies if they last longer than a day in your house 😊.
You can also use frozen avocado chunks and thaw them.
Comment below if you make these and let me know how you liked them (and also how long they lasted in your house).
