Grain Free Olive Oil Chocolate Chip Cookies

September 26, 2019 by Mia Zarlengo 119 Comments

Chocolate chip cookies on a cooling rack with striped napkin

The most deliciously fluffy, thick, and flavorful bakery style chocolate chip cookies.

Olive oil adds a rich, smooth flavor to baked goods. It might sound strange to some, but olive oil + chocolate are really delicious together. Plus, it’s a healthy fat packed with omega-3’s.

High quality, healthy fats are so important in a healthy diet. I pay close attention to the fats I consume- even in baked goods/desserts! Olive oil is a long standing favorite of mine (yes i am very Italian and olive oil basically runs through my veins- but it’s also loaded with health benefits :).

I can’t believe the way these cookies turned out- the texture and taste is out of this world good. They taste like a thick and chewy bakery style cookie- but made with real and wholesome ingredients. free of grains, refined sugars, and made with healthy fats. Homemade is always best!

P.S. I recently made these into “monster cookies” using chocolate gems and they were DELICIOUS!

I can’t wait for you guys to try these! Enjoy xx

Description

The best thick, gooey, dense chocolate chip cookies made without any grains or refined sugars. They are gluten free, paleo friendly, and insanely delicious! 


Scale

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup olive oil
  • 3/4 cup coconut sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 + 3/4 cups almond flour
  • 1/2 tsp sea salt
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 3/4 cup chopped dark chocolate or chocolate chips

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 350°F and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Whisk olive oil, egg, coconut sugar, and vanilla together until smooth. 
3. Stir in the dry ingredients until everything is well combined, then fold in chocolate chips. 
4. Scoop dough out into about 1.5 tbsp sized balls- roll with your hands to make them smooth. leave room between each cookie for them to spread while baking. 
5. Bake for 11-12 minutes. allow to cool before serving or cookies will be fragile.


Notes

-I have not tested these cookies with any other flour substitutions. For best results, I recommend keeping the recipe as is!

    These cookies are ADDICTING. My mom has the biggest sweet tooth but found out a few years ago that she is gluten and dairy intolerant. I showed her this recipe and she genuinely makes these every week (or if she doesn’t get to making the cookies, keeps a bowl of dough in the fridge). When I first brought her a batch she said that she hadn’t truly enjoyed a cookie since her diagnosis until these. SO GOOD

    These are literally the best cookies on the internet. I make them all the time and I eat them all so fast but I feel like these would stay perfect even after a few days (I don’t know – they’ve never actually lasted that long for me) I make a bunch Sunday night and end up eating the few that are left for breakfast the day. Everyone should be required to make these at least once in their life to know what true happiness feels like!!

    Get. Out. Of. Town. These cookies are insanely good and similar to that perfect chocolate chip cookie you grew up eating BUT they are grain free and have so much less guilt. I doubled the batch and brought them to thanksgiving. I’m trying to introduce the concept to my family that there are alternative choices when it comes to ingredients even in desserts.

    These are super tasty!! I made them the first time as-directed and really enjoyed them. Today I made them with coconut flour instead (just bc almond flour was so expensive). Still tasty, but the almond flour is definitely better. These are loosely the adjustments I made since coconut flour is much more absorbent!

    – Instead of almond flour, 1 cup of coconut flour
    – Use 4 eggs TOTAL so add an extra egg
    – Add a *little* more sugar than originally directed (maybe like 1/8 a cup? just to taste)

    Again; the almond flour tastes much better, but in case you want to try coconut for whatever reason that’s what worked for me!

    Just made another sheet and didn’t have enough almond flour so I used oat flour for the remaining amount needed. Consistency is not as good but they actually get better after a couple of days in the fridge and are super yummy too!

    AMAZING! I’ve been baking a lot with almond flour for Passover and these were SO good. I substituted canola oil for olive oil (a bit shy that my taste testers would find olive oil too strong) and did half white sugar / half brown sugar. They spread slightly but are still a good thickness with a chewy center. 10 out 10 in my book! Thanks Mia!

    I made these cookies with regular refined sugar and mini semi-sweet chocolate chips and they were amazing! I’m amazed at how easy they were to make! I love them with the almond flour since it comes with such a great texture.

    My recommendation would be to take them out at the 11 minute mark, even if you think they are underdone. The first time I was afraid they were too wobbly but they definitely settled after they cooled, and I ended up slightly burning. mine on top. But still very delicious!

    These were delicious, simple, and guilt-free. And the recipe yielded SO many cookies! I love olive oil, so I was instantly drawn to this recipe.
    I ended up baking them much longer than the recipe called for, as the cookies weren’t spreading like I was expecting from pictures. I think that I needed to smush them down a bit on the cookie sheet as opposed to having them in balls when going into the oven! Also, after some research, I learned that all almond flours aren’t created equal, so I think perhaps my almond flour had something to do with the spreading as well! Will be trying again soon 🙂

    These cookies were THE BEST cookies I’ve ever had. I love baking with olive oil and when I read all of these reviews I knew I had to try! They are so gooey and delicious in the center and the olive oil adds an incredible depth of flavor! It really does bring out all the flavors of the chocolate and rich coconut sugar.

I made a batch this past Sunday and literally ate the last 2 this morning for breakfast (Tuesday). The best part is, I don’t have major guilt about it with the ingredients being nutrient dense.

    Yummy! I ran out of almond flour at about 3/4 cup so I used whole wheat flour, a little over a cup and they came out great. So delicious and SO easy! Can’t wait to make these for my aunt who is gluten free! Thanks so much for the great recipe, as always!

    These are seriously DELICIOUS. If you haven’t made them, you’re missing out. They taste like bakery cookies. My fiancé is a firm fan of your typical chocolate chip cookie, and he LOVES these so much he requests them! They’ve become a staple dessert recipe for us when we’re craving something sweet!

    just had to make these after reading the reviews and they do not disappoint! I’m vegan and used a flax egg and they turned out great! Thanks Mia!

    Oh my ********. I was sceptical about making these because of the olive oil and just because I didn’t think it would ever be possible to make yummy GF dairy free cookies. But OMG. These are UNBELIEVABLE. They are gooey, and chewy, and soft, and absolutely delicious. Cannot put it into words, they are honestly life changing. I had 3 with ice cream all to myself last night, I just couldn’t help but go back for more and more!I And my family all had 2 each as well! Can’t wait to make them again.

    Amazing! If you think the olive oil taste is too strong, use avocado oil with a little OO and the mix is really perfect.

    So I’m a little up set…not at all with this recipe, but with myself for waiting so long to make it. I was a bit skeptical about olive oil in cookies and for sure thought if you’ve tried one chocolate chip cookie recipe you’ve tried them all but OMGAWD was I wrong-they’re so good! Mia continues to prove why she is one of my top goto recipe developers!!

    These are better than regular chocolate chip cookies I’m in love!!! The batter took me literally FIVE minutes to make, so I put the dough in a tupperware in the fridge and every night I scoop out the dough to make fresh cookies!

    I have been trying to limit my dairy and gluten intake but I have a huge sweet tooth. These cookies are amazing. I am a chocolate chip cookie connoisseur. The fact that these do not use real flour or sugar and taste this good should be a crime.

    p.s try putting them in the freezer to store them and snack on.. game.changer.

    I swapped out the coconut sugar for terbinado (demerara) sugar and my family and I cannot get enough of these. The texture and chewiness can’t be beat! It tastes like a butter based cookie.Thank you!!!

    Ok so these cookies are absolutely delectable and everyone loves them- not just my gluten-free friends & family… EVERYONE. I make a batch for myself to inhale and another batch to share. #1 best cookies out there. Can’t say enough good things. Gooey consistency, perfect amount of chocolate, the list goes on. I never write reviews but these deserve a review!

    Sooooo delicious! I used half almond flour and half gluten free all purpose flour because that’s what I had on hand and they still turned out amazing! Will definitely be making again in the future. Thanks for the recipe!
