Description

A sweet and salty Paleo treat made with crispy bacon, dark chocolate, and pure maple syrup. Perfect for any time you crave a nostalgic yet healthy dessert.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 ½ cups almond flour
  • ¼ cup coconut flour
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ¼ teaspoon sea salt
  • 4 slices nitrate-free bacon (cooked until crispy and crumbled)
  • ½ cup dark chocolate chips (dairy-free if needed)
  • ¼ cup coconut oil (melted)
  • ¼ cup pure maple syrup
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Preheat Your Oven
    Set the oven to 350°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Mix the Dry Ingredients
    In a medium bowl, whisk together the almond flour, coconut flour, baking soda, and salt.
  3. Prepare the Wet Ingredients
    In another bowl, stir together the melted coconut oil, maple syrup, egg, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  4. Combine Everything
    Slowly mix the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until a dough forms. Fold in the crumbled bacon and chocolate chips.
  5. Shape the Cookies
    Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough and roll into balls. Flatten slightly on the baking sheet.
  6. Bake
    Bake for 10–12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown. Let them cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.

Notes

Keep cookies in an airtight container for up to 3 days. For extra crunch, reheat in a 300°F oven for 2–3 minutes.
