¼ cupcoconut sugar

¼ cupmaple syrup

2flax eggs

2 tbs ground flax+5 tbsp water

1 tspvanilla

2 tsppumpkin spice

or cinnamon

¼ tspsalt

1 cupdark chocolate chips

1 tspbaking soda

1 tspbaking powder

Instructions

Step 1

Prepare a baking sheet with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine all ingredients except for baking powder and baking soda and form a dough ball.

Step 3

Chill the dough for 30 min. While dough is chilling, preheat your oven to 350.

Step 4

After dough has chilled, sprinkle on baking powder and baking soda and mix thoroughly. Scoop dough using a cookie scoop (or 3 tablespoons worth) and place onto your prepared baking sheet.

Step 5

Add additional chocolate chips to the tops of the dough if desired. This will make your cookies have those perfectly placed chips on the tops of them!

Step 6

Press each cookie down into a disc to flatten them. These won’t rise much while baking so flattening them out will create more of a cookie shape.

Step 7

Bake for 12 minutes and allow to cool for 10 minutes before serving.

Step 8

Store in an airtight container for one week or freeze for up to 3 months.
