Almond Flour Chocolate Chip Cookies (Simple Mills Copycat)

About 16 cookies, about 30 minutes. A from-scratch copy of the Simple Mills almond flour chocolate chip cookie mix: same seven-ingredient base, made dairy-free with coconut oil.

Reminder: these are a treat, not a functional dessert. They copy a treat; they belong with the occasion desserts, not the daily slice.

Before you start

Quantity Ingredient Method
oven Heat to 175 °C. Line a baking sheet with parchment.

Dough

Quantity Ingredient Method
150 g almond flour Whisk together in a bowl. This is the dry blend that equals the boxed mix.
50 g coconut sugar ↑
3 tbsp tapioca starch (or arrowroot) ↑
2 tbsp coconut flour ↑
½ tsp baking soda ↑
¼ tsp sea salt ↑
85 g dairy-free dark chocolate chips Stir in.
1 egg Stir in until a dough forms. Rest 2–3 min so the coconut flour hydrates.
3 tbsp melted coconut oil ↑
1 tsp vanilla extract ↑

Bake

Quantity Ingredient Method
dough Roll into balls of about 1½ tbsp, space on the sheet and flatten slightly; they barely spread.
cookies Bake 9–12 min, until the edges are golden and the centers still look soft. Cool 5–10 min on the sheet; they are fragile while warm.

Notes

  • The ingredient list and order match Simple Mills; the gram amounts are a calibration, since the brand does not publish them. If the dough is too soft, add a little almond flour; if too dry, a splash of plant milk.
  • Use coconut sugar, not white sugar, for the slightly caramel flavor, and check that the chocolate chips are dairy-free.
  • No preservatives: store in the fridge or freezer.
