Ingredients

1/2 cup smooth sunflower seed butter or smooth nut/seed butter of choice
2 tablespoons 28 g coconut oil, melted
2 tablespoons coconut sugar
1/4 cup 60 mL boiling water
Optional: 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/2 cup 56 g coconut flour
Optional: 1/4 cup 1.5 oz/43 g miniature semisweet chocolate chips

Instructions

In a medium mixing bowl, whisk the sunflower seed butter, coconut oil, coconut sugar, boiling water and (optional) vanilla until blended and smooth.
Add the coconut flour to the bowl, stirring until completely combined. Let stand for 2 to 3 minutes for the coconut flour to absorb the liquid ingredients and thicken the dough.
Stir in the chocolate chips, if using.
Using a small cookie scoop, a tablespoon, or a small kitchen spoon, scoop the dough into 18 cookie dough mounds on a cookie sheet or plate (alternatively, scoop portions of dough into small individual containers, as pictured above).
Refrigerate for at least 20 minutes until firm.

Notes

Storage: Store the cookie dough cookies in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 1 week. If freezing, I recommend freezing without portioning the dough (it may need a small amount more water or coconut flour once thawed). Store the dough in the freezer, in an airtight container, for up to 6 months.

Keto Option: Replace the coconut sugar with an equal amount of keto brown sugar substitute (e.g., options made by Swerve, Truvia, Sukrin Gold). Also, use a seed or nut butter that does not have added sugars. If adding the optional chocolate chips, use an equal amount of keto-friendly miniature semisweet chocolate chips (e.g., Lily's Sweets Chocolate Chips).
