Almost Paleo Chocolate Chip Cookies

This is the recipe I used for the cookies I made today. It makes about 2 dozen big, soft cookies. This is not your mama’s chocolate chip cookies so don’t expect the level of sweetness that sends you reeling in a sugar coma :P 

Ingredients:

  • 3 cups Blanched Almond Flour
  • 1/2 cup Virgin Coconut Oil, unrefined
  • 1/2 cup Pure Maple Syrup
  • 2 Omega 3 Eggs
  • 1 tsp Baking Soda
  • 1 tsp Salt
  • 1 tsp Vanilla Extract
  • 1 1/2 cups Enjoy Life Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips
Process:
  1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
  2. In a medium sized mixing bowl combine dry ingredients.
  3. In a small mixing bowl beat eggs, maple syrup, and vanilla extract with a hand mixer.
  4. Pour wet ingredients into dry and beat with hand mixer until combined.
  5. Melt coconut oil, pour into batter, and continue to blend until combined.
  6. Stir in chocolate chips.
  7. On a parchment lined baking sheet, drop balls of cookie dough, about a tablespoon in size.
  8. Bake for 15 minutes.

First paleo baking success. So happy!

Today’s goal was to eat more and…

I failed miserably :P I’ve been hungry and snack happy for a few days so I was really just trying to change things around and not really concerned about adding more calories. I am a girl on a diet albeit a paleo diet.

I ate some bigger meals, didn’t snack and ended up eating less calories. Go figure. I’ve always been a grazer and I get a lot of flack from family about how much I eat now. Honestly, I don’t give them crap about the loaf of bread they ate before the steak was ready =\

Less jiggle makes me happy…

Bought a new…smaller bra today. I know some girls worry about losing boobage. That is not me. AT ALL. I just wanna be able to buy cute sports bras AND keep the girls secure while I’m running :P
