Healthy Gooey Cookie Skillet
This warm, gooey healthy chocolate chip cookie skillet is rich, chocolatey, and the perfect sweet treat. Made with almond butter, whole wheat flour, and maple syrup, it’s naturally sweetened and dairy-free!
Ingredients
- ½ cup all-natural creamy almond butter
- ¼ cup melted unrefined coconut oil, (or butter)
- 1 large egg
- ½ cup real maple syrup
- ¼ cup coconut sugar
- 2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup white whole wheat flour
- ¾ teaspoon baking soda
- ⅔ cups chocolate chips or chunks
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the creamy almond butter and melted coconut oil.
- Add the egg, maple syrup, coconut sugar, and vanilla extract. Mix until well combined.
- Stir in the flour and baking soda until just combined. Gently fold in the chocolate chips.
- Press the cookie dough into an 8’’ or 9’’ cast iron skillet. Optionally, add extra chocolate chips on top.
- Bake for 18 to 22 minutes, until barely golden. Be careful not to overbake; the cookie will continue to cook as it cools.
- Serve warm with vanilla ice cream and enjoy!
Notes
Almond butter Sub: You can swap for peanut butter for a stronger, nuttier flavor. You can even use another nut butter like cashew or sun butter.
White whole wheat flour Sub: Swap with regular whole wheat flour or all-purpose flour. Do not use coconut or almond flour for this recipe.
VARIATIONS: You can add nuts, m&m's, Reece's cups, etc. I left notes above in my blog section.
Make this cookie skillet dairy-free: Use dairy-free chocolate chips and coconut oil instead of butter to keep it completely dairy-free.
Make this cookie skillet gluten-free: Use gluten-free 1:1 baking flour. Do not use almond flour or coconut flour. I left a specific recommendation in the notes section of the recipe card.
