First of all, these cookies alone are super delicious! Almond cookie dough bites are insanely delicious! I recently gave birth to my third child, Cameran Jean, three weeks ago. So, I am currently on my postpartum journey of trying to lose this dang baby weight! I am not trying to rush the process so I'm taking it day by day and I do know this is not something that will happen over night and I'm okay with that! I am 36 years old, also, so I know that the weight isn't going to just fall off like it did with my first child.

How do I make the almond cookies?

So, it took me a few trials to figure out how to cook with almond flour. The consistency isn't as thick as a dessert made with white or wheat flour would be. After some experimenting I had to add a little bit of coconut flour to these cookies to thicken then up a bit. Otherwise, they kept coming out flatter than a pancake. This is what you need to make the almond cookies.

1½ cups almond flour
3 tbsp coconut flour
¼ tsp baking soda
¼ tsp kosher salt
3 tbsp melted coconut oil
¼ cup pure maple syrup
¼ cup plain greek yogurt

To make these cookies this is what you need to do. First, preheat your oven to 350° and line a baking pan with parchment paper and set aside. In a small bowl, whisk together the almond flour, coconut flour, baking soda, and salt. In a separate bowl, stir together coconut oil, pure maple syrup, and plain greek yogurt. Add the dry mixture to the wet mixture and combine until a dough forms. Drop spoonfuls of the dough onto the prepared baking pan and bake for 8 to 10 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool completely on a cooling rack.

This healthy cookie dough recipe is super easy to make! The ingredients you will need are 1 ½ cups of chickpeas, drained and rinsed, ¼ cup light brown sugar, ¼ cup unsweetened vanilla almond milk, 2 tsp pure vanilla extract, ¹⁄8 tsp baking soda, ¼ cup natural peanut butter, and ½ cup of dark chocolate chips. To make the dough you will add the chickpeas, brown sugar, almond milk, vanilla extract, and baking soda to a blender. Blend until smooth, then add the peanut butter and blend again! Last, mix in the chocolate chips. You are more than welcome to eat this deliciousness right away, but I like to put it in the fridge for about an hour. If you are in need of a good blender I've linked the one I have under my favorites. Click the link below to head over to my favorites page.

How do you make Almond Cookie Dough Bites?

Now, for the best part about these past 2 recipes, we put them together! After I made the almond cookies and they completely cooled I lined a tupperware container with parchment paper and placed the cooled almond cookies onto the parchment paper. I stuck the tupperware into the freezer and froze the almond cookies. This took about 1 hour.

Next, I took the tupperware out of the freezer and took the cookie dough out of the fridge and assembled them. Using a knife I scooped out the cookie dough and smeared it onto the bottom side of a almond cookie, then took a second almond cookie and placed it on top, making a sandwich! I followed these steps until all the cookies were used. Then, you can either eat them right there or if you want to save them and eat one a day, like I do 😉 I placed them back on the tupperware lined with parchment paper and kept them in the fridge.
