Most days around here are loud and crumb-covered, so when I bake, it has to be worth the mess. These gluten-free chocolate chip cookies are. They’re simple, dependable, and everyone actually eats them. We love how these fit everywhere - they go in our kids' lunchboxes frequently, we grab a couple for an afternoon coffee and we make sure to equip our RV pantry with the needed ingredients, to be able to make them when we travel. Tahini and almond flour make them rich, nourishing and soft, and maple syrup brings the sweetness without the crash. The chocolate chips… well, they don't need introduction or excuses to be in the recipe!
Ingredients
2 cups almond flour
2 tbsps vegan chocolate chips
1/4 cup raw tahini
1/4 cup maple syrup
2 tbsps plant-based milk (for a soy-free recipe, ensure usage of a soy-free milk)
1 tsp baking powder
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 360F (180C).
In a large mixing bowl, combine all ingredients and mix well.
The mixture should be a little sticky but still workable.
Shape balls of the dough, about 2 inch each.
Bake for 12 minutes or until golden on top.
Cool a little before serving.
Keep in an airtight box for up to 3 days in room temperature, or refrigerate for up to a week.
We made them when we were traveling through Alaska! Check out our Alaska itenarary and adventures here.
Notes
Maple can be substituted with Agava or other preferred sweetener.
The Latest Bite
Fig and Beet Salad

When we hosted a summer dinner recently, we wanted something that felt fresh and thoughtful without requiring a lot of time or fuss in the kitchen. This salad came together naturally—raw yellow beet for crunch and earthiness, sweet dried figs for a touch of richness, and peppery arugula balanced by the light, delicate alfalfa sprouts. The date-mustard dressing adds just the right hint of sweetness and tang to bring it all together. It wasn’t meant to steal the show, but quietly complemented the meal and fit perfectly with the relaxed, easygoing atmosphere we hoped to create.
