I did a little research about Almond Butter and found out it is great your heart because it’s rich in monounsaturated fats which help reduce the levels of cholesterol! It’s also great for helping lower blood pressure because it decreases the cholesterol.  It helps to control blood sugar , and  is rich in antioxidants!  So we are totally winning with this chocolate chip almond butter cookie!

For the almond butter be sure it’s REAL natural almond butter with the only ingredients being almonds, raw is obviously the best choice but roasted is still a good alternative.  The almond butter should be a runny consistency if it only has almonds as the ingredients! (a little salt is also fine if that is listed, just no nasty preservatives)

side note: if you prefer peanut butter them check out my Chocolate Chip Peanut Butter Cookie! 😉

Oats! Heart healthy + fiber filled oats are used two ways in this cookie, in their rolled oat form and also popped into the food processor to be turned into flour! This oat flour gives this cookie a really nice firm texture and helps it hold together really well!

Pure maple syrup is the sweetener I used in this chocolate chip cookie it works great and provides just the right amount of sweet-ness.  Be sure to look at the ingredients and make sure it’s pure and not loaded with HFCS! 😉

 

Lastly you can’t have a chocolate chip cookie without the chocolate! I like to use Enjoy Life dark chocolate chips in here but you can sub carob chips if you want to avoid the little amount of sugar or caffeine in chocolate!
