Gluten-Free Chocolate Chip Classic
I changed things up a bit and created this recipe using almond flour, ground flaxseed, and protein powder to give us a well rounded flour base that still mixes well and bakes into a soft, chewy cookie.
Baking with almond flour is a bit different in that it can very quickly create hard, dry baked goods. I have found was that using a mix of almond flour, flaxseed and protein powder helps to create a softer, more springy baked good. This is a trick that I carry over to each recipe I create.
