Chickpea Flour Chocolate Chip Cookies

Ingredients

• 1½ cups Pride of India Garbanzo bean flour

• ½ teaspoon baking soda

• ¼ teaspoon Pride of India Himalayan white salt fine

• ⅓ cup melted coconut oil or unsalted butter

• ½ cup Pride of India Coconut sugar

• 1 large egg

• 1½ teaspoons vanilla extract

• ⅔ cup dark chocolate chips

Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Dough

1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F.

2. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

3. In a medium bowl, whisk together the chickpea flour, baking soda, and salt.

Step 2: Combine the Ingredients
