Cook Time: 10 minutes
Prep Time: 15 minutes
Servings: 12 cookies
INGREDIENTS
- 2 cups almond flour
- 1/4 cup coconut oil, melted
- 1/4 cup maple syrup
- 1/2 cup dark chocolate chips
METHOD
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a bowl, mix almond flour, melted coconut oil, and maple syrup until well combined. Stir until the ingredients are well incorporated and the dough is smooth. The dough should be slightly sticky but firm enough to hold its shape.
- Gently fold in the dark chocolate chips using a spatula, ensuring that they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.
- Scoop out small portions of dough (about a tablespoon each) and roll them into balls with your hands. Place each ball onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Once all the dough is portioned out, gently press each ball down with your fingers or the back of a spoon to form a cookie shape, about 1/4 inch thick.
- Bake for 10 minutes or until the edges are golden brown.
- Allow the cookies to cool before enjoying.

One of the biggest issues I see when it comes to healing the gut, balancing hormones and supporting metabolic function is actually a lack of protein intake, especially by women
Most of our snacks are geared towards higher carbohydrates or higher fats, which is typical in convenience type foods, but also in grabbing a handful of nuts or a piece of fruit.
This isn’t to say that those choices are wrong, but did you know that for a food to be considered ‘high protein’ it only needs to hit 5g of protein per serve. That really isn’t much - in fact, rice can be considered a high protein food if you were to measure in this way.
But it’s not, it’s predominantly a carbohydrate. As a nutritionist, I see the confusion this causes all the time, and to be honest it can get super frustrating - not just for me, but clients as well because they think they’re doing the right thing.
A HIGH PROTEIN SNACK TO SUPPORT HOLISTIC WELLNESS
That’s why I am obsessed with this slice, not only is it packed with delicious whole food ingredients (hello cacao), but we have ensured each slice contains about 12g of protein - if not more - so that your ‘high protein snack’ is in fact a high protein snack.
The @mitchells.nz protein powder is collagen based which supports hormone health, skin health and gut healing. The maca root powder is helpful for hormones, libido and energy levels and the tahini is high in antioxidants, anti-inflammatory and has minerals like magnesium to support our nervous system and brain health, much like cacao.
It also ticks a lot of boxes for those of you struggling to find something that is nourishing but won’t flare up your symptoms - this recipe is gluten free, dairy free, paleo, sugar free and keto friendly!
