Skillet Chocolate Chip Almond Flour Cookies

This post was created in partnership with Bob’s Red Mill. All opinions are our own. Typically the recipes we share here are fresh and healthy dishes, but every so often a sweet treat comes along that is too good not to share. This time, it’s these skillet chocolate chip almond flour cookies. While it doesn’t qualify as healthy, perhaps it passes as healthy-ish. With a dough base made primarily of almond flour (ground almonds), it has more nutrients than the typical refined white flour cookie. It’s also gluten-free and dairy-free, so it works for a variety of diets. And most importantly for us, it’s incredibly simple: mix all ingredients in a bowl, dump it in a skillet, and bake. You can’t get much easier than that! Keep reading for the recipe.

How to make skillet almond flour cookies

These chocolate chip almond flour cookies are so, so easy to make and baked right in a skillet! They’ve got just the right texture: chewy, caramely, and dense like a blondie, which comes from the mix of almond flour, brown sugar, and butter or coconut oil. It’s worth purchasing almond flour for this one. (Want more with almond flour? We’ve got 10 easy almond recipes for you to try.)
To make the almond flour cookies, you simply mix together almond flour, sugar, butter, and egg white and chocolate chips. Then, press it into a skillet, and bake! After baking, slice into wedges and serve. You can serve it right from the skillet while the chocolate is melty, or make it in advance and allow it to cool to room temperature. We also like cutting this one into tiny squares and serving as little bites of chocolate chip almond flour cookies. If you’re up for a decadent treat, top a wedge with ice cream, Homemade Whipped Cream, Coconut Whipped Cream, or Yogurt Whipped Cream!
