Calories 216kcal
Ingredients
- 1 ½ cups almond flour
- 2 tablespoons coconut flour
- ⅓ cup coconut oil, melted and cooled
- ⅓ cup sugar (or coconut sugar)
- 1 egg
- ¾ teaspoon peppermint extract
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¾ cup white chocolate chips
- ½ cup crushed peppermint candy (or candy canes)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350.
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
- In a medium bowl, add the melted coconut oil, sugar, egg, and peppermint extract. Use a spoon and mix until everything is coated well.
- Next, add the almond flour, coconut flour, baking soda and salt. At this point, you should have a pretty thick dough.
- Fold in 1/2 cup of the white chocolate chips and 1/4 cup of the crushed peppermint candies.
- Use a cookie scoop to form 12-14 cookie balls, then place them onto the baking sheet!
- Use your hands to press them down a bit, about 1/4 - 1/2 inch thick.
- Press remaining white chocolate chips on top of each cookie.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes. They might look a bit undercooked but will firm up.
- Decorate with more chocolate chips and remaining peppermint candy pieces once they come out of the oven.
- Transfer to a wire rack to let cool, and enjoy!
