Ingredients

  • 6 ounces pecans, finely chopped 170g
  • 10 ounces walnuts, finely chopped 283g
  • 2 cups old fashioned rolled oats 175g (Use gluten free if needed)
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon cornstarch
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ cup coconut oil, melted 120mL
  • ½ cup agave nectar 120mL
  • 2 large eggs room temperature
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 7 ounces dark chocolate, chopped into chunks 200g

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 325°F. (Note: this recipe works best if you have a food processor.) Grind up the nuts in the food processor until finely ground. Transfer to a large bowl. Stir in the oats, baking powder, cornstarch and salt. Make a well in the center of the mixture; add oil, agave, eggs and vanilla. Stir until completely combined. Fold in the chocolate chunks.
  • Scoop out dough to create balls that are about 2 tablespoons. Place on a parchment lined or greased cookie sheet. Press gently with hand to flatten balls.
  • Bake 20 minutes or until cookies are light golden brown on the edges. Let cool completely on a wire rack before serving. Store covered in the refrigerator for 5 days or up to 2 weeks in the freezer.
