Print Recipe

Double Chocolate Avocado Cookies are a fudgy mix between a cookie and a brownie to satisfy your chocolate cookie cravings! You’d never guess these healthy Chocolate Avocado Cookies are made without grains or butter and can be made free from the top 8 food allergies!

Ingredients

Scale
  • ½ cup cassava flour
  • 1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/3 cup brown sugar
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¾ cup cubed avocado
  • 1 large egg
  • ¼ cup mini chocolate chips
  • Flaky sea salt for topping

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
  2. In a large bowl mix together cassava flour, cocoa powder, coconut sugar, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
  3. Add avocado and egg to a high-powered blender or food processor. Blend until smooth.
  4. Add the avocado mixture to the dry ingredients. Mix together with a sturdy spoon until uniform consistency forms. The dough will be thick, but keep working it until smooth.
  5. Fold in chocolate chips with a sturdy spoon until evenly distributed.
  6. Using a 2-inch cookie scoop, scoop out dough and place on parchment paper-lined baking sheet. Flatten with the palm of your hand. Repeat with remaining dough. You will make about 9 cookies.
  7. Sprinkle with flaky sea salt and additional chocolate chips, if desired.
  8. Bake for 8 minutes. Let cool for a few minutes before transferring to a wire baking rack to finish cooling. Enjoy!

Notes

Substitutions:

  • Instead of cassava flour, use 1/2 cup + 2 tablespoons – a full 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • Instead of egg, use 1 flax egg (Mix together 1 tablespoon ground flaxseed with 3 tablespoons water and let sit for 5-10 minutes)
