Hardly anyone can say no to a chocolate chip cookie. They’re a family favorite in most households, but did you know they can be Paleo-friendly too? Check out how to make maple bacon chocolate chip cookies without using any refined sugars or added grains.
Traditional chocolate chip cookies are not always the healthiest when it comes to baking. But now you can put your own healthy spin on it to give by giving your family a delectable, mouthwatering, chocolate-laden alternative—no refined sugar and oils needed.
These Paleo maple bacon chocolate chip cookies are simple and easy to make. First, you’ll want to combine all your ingredients using a food processor — don’t add in the bacon or chocolate chips just yet. When you have the right consistency, slowly add in the bacon. Next, you’ll transfer everything to a mixing bowl and add in your chocolate chips. Scoop, flatten, and spread your cookies onto a prepared baking sheet. Pop them into a preheated oven at 350 degrees for 8-10 minutes. And finally, cool your cookies on a wire rack and serve when ready.
