Paleo Pecan Almcoco Chocolate Chip Cookies

Since Deanna and I had started making Almond milk, just like our coconut milk adventure, we now have some homemade almond flour. An Almond Milk "How-to" article will come soon.

So searching online came up with tons of options, but I wanted to check youtube for a good recipe. I found this video I am sharing with you:

The presenter, Diana, gives a brief talk in the beginning and then shares an awesome demonstration of the simple ingredients she combines to make these wonderful cookies.

My taste buds were flaring in delight when I took the first bite. The cookies do not get hard and dry, they remain in good moisture, just the right level of delicacy that enables the flours and pecans to hold together and no crumbs made. The chocolate chips add a good taste of chocolate, and the only other taste that dominates is the delicate pecans.

I took it a step further and soaked the pecans overnight, and then dehydrated them for 15 min in the oven over 350 degrees. They came out sweetly hydrated, which could have made the difference with the end product being softer.


Here are my results, evinced by two photos.
