Chocolate Chip Cookies Safe for Troubled Tummys
On week 5 of THE GUT REFRESH and day 2 of my period sooooo I really needed a low FODMAP approved, gluten-free, dairy-free, egg-free sweet treat with all its gooey, warm goodness and you guys… these HIT THE SPOT!
I also loved that it was completely possible with ALL PANTRY ITEMS! With the pandemic, running the GUT & BODY REFRESH challenge, putting together formulations and being a mom… any time I can avoid the store. I do. Plus now I have a ready to make treat whenever the urge hits.
win win
Goods To Get:
2 cups gluten-free flour , I used 1 cup almond flour & 1 cup cassava flour
1 tsp baking soda
3/4 cup coconut sugar
1/3 cup coconut oil ( I used unrefined because I wanted that coconut flavor but if you don’t like the taste of coconut then snag yourself some refined coconut oil)
1/2 cup maple syrup
1 tsp vanilla extract
chocolate chips, these are my favorite to use but I used these ones and they worked out great as well.
water as needed
Instructions:
Preheat oven to 350 Fahrenheit
Combine dry ingredients until fully blended then add in wet ingredients
Add water 1 tbsp at a time if needed
Scoop onto a lined baking sheet (about 1.5 inch balls)
Gently press down to about 1/2 inch thick
Bake for about 6 minutes or until starting to lightly brown
Add chocolate chips and bake another 2 minutes
Let cool, add a pinch of salt + enjoy!
I used cassava and almond flour because that’s what I had on hand. (almond flour becomes HIGH FODMAP at 1/2 a cup of flour but since I’m only eating one or two cookies it stays below that threshold)
HERE’S A LIST OF LOW FODMAP FLOURS.
Almond meal (FODMAP content varies)
Buckwheat flour (low FODMAP)
Corn flour (low FODMAP)
Maize flour (low FODMAP)
Millet flour (low FODMAP)
Organic sieved spelt flour (low FODMAP)
Quinoa flour (low FODMAP)
Rice flour (low FODMAP)
I can’t wait for you guys to try these! I’ve been playing around in the kitchen and really honing in on my baking skills. Expect to see some low FODMAP, dairy-free, gluten-free and egg-free brownies and almond butter bread! Let me know if you make the cookies and/or what flour or additions you use!
