Chocolate chip Cookies Gluten Free
INGREDIENTS
Yield: About 10 (5-inch) cookies
2¾cups/310 grams finely ground almond flour
¾teaspoon kosher salt
½teaspoon baking soda
10tablespoons/140 grams unsalted butter, at room temperature (1¼ sticks)
½cup/110 grams light brown sugar
½cup/100 grams granulated sugar
1 large egg
1½teaspoons vanilla extract
12ounces/340 grams bittersweet chocolate feves or chips, or coarsely chopped bar chocolate
Sea salt, for finishing (optional)
PREPARATION
Step 1 Heat the oven to 350 degrees. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
Step 2 In a medium bowl, whisk the almond flour, salt and baking soda to combine.
Step 3 Using a mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream the butter, brown sugar and granulated sugar on medium speed until very light, 3 to 4 minutes.
Step 4 Add the egg and mix on medium speed to combine. Scrape the bowl well, then add the vanilla and mix to combine.
Step 5 Add the dry ingredients and mix on low speed until just combined, about 10 seconds. Scrape the bowl well and mix on low speed to ensure the mixture is homogenous.
Step 6 Add the chocolate and gently mix to incorporate it. Scoop the dough into 10 3½ ounce/100-gram mounds of dough the size of generous golf balls, and transfer them to the prepared baking sheets. Stagger the rows to allow the cookies room to spread.
Step 7 Gently press the cookies down slightly with your fingers until about 1½ inches thick. Sprinkle lightly with sea salt, if using. Bake the cookies, switching racks and rotating the sheets halfway through, until they’re golden brown around the edges and just barely set in the center, 18 to 22 minutes. Transfer sheets to a wire rack for 10 minutes, then transfer cookies with a spatula onto another rack to cool a bit more.
