Ingredients
  

1 cup almond flour

1/4 cup coconut flour

1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder

1/2 teaspoon baking soda

1/4 teaspoon sea salt

1/2 cup maple syrup (or honey, if preferred)

1/4 cup unsweetened applesauce

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/2 cup dark chocolate chips (dairy-free if desired)

1/4 cup chopped walnuts or pecans (optional)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

    Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the almond flour, coconut flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and sea salt. Whisk together until evenly combined.

      Combine Wet Ingredients: In another bowl, mix the maple syrup, unsweetened applesauce, and vanilla extract until smooth and well-integrated.

        Combine Mixtures: Slowly add the wet mixture into the dry ingredients. Stir until just combined, being careful not to overmix. Fold in the dark chocolate chips and, if using, the chopped walnuts or pecans.

          Form Bites: Using a tablespoon, scoop the dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Gently flatten each scoop slightly with your fingers or the back of a spoon.

            Bake: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are firm but the centers remain slightly soft. They will firm up as they cool.

              Cool: Allow the chocolate chip bites to cool on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.

                Serve and Enjoy: Once cooled, indulge in these guilt-free delights! Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to a week.
