Chewy Nut & Chocolate Chunk Cookies
Kelly Gibney from Bonnie Delicious has created these yummy little cookies in honour of National Nut Day. They are a piece of cake to pull together and utilise our Natural Deluxe Mixed Nuts. There’s cashews, brazil nuts, almonds and hazelnuts. Such a tasty combination!
Ingredients
1 1/2 cups Alison’s Pantry Deluxe Mixed Nuts
3/4 cup natural peanut butter (we love Mother Earth)
1 free range egg
1/4 cup coconut sugar
1/4 cup tapioca flour
1 teaspoon vanilla essence
Pinch sea salt
70g dark chocolate drops (we love Donovan’s Chocolate)
Method
- Preheat oven to 160 degrees celsius
- Place the mixed nuts into a food processor and blitz until the texture of course crumbs. Add the remaining ingredients (except chocolate) and blend until well mixed. You may need to scrape the sides a couple of times as the mixture is very sticky. The mixture should come together as a rough dough. .It may be necessary to add a couple of tablespoons of water to help it come together (this will depend on the humidity of the day and the peanut butter you use). Place the cookie dough in a large bowl and mix through the chocolate pieces.
- Form tablespoons of dough into discs and place them on a cookie sheet lined with baking paper. Flatten each cookie slightly with the palm of your hand. Bake for 18 – 20 minutes until lightly golden.
- Leave cookies to cool for 20 minutes before moving. They are very delicate when just out of the oven.
Cookies can be stored in an airtight container for up to 4 days
