Almond Flour Dark Chocolate Chip Cookies

Okay, so I made this up on Super Bowl Sunday, and while a little dry, they are actually quite yummy. I'll tell you what I did, and then what I think I will do next time I make them.
BTW, they were better the next day!

Ingredients:

1 1/2 cups Almond Flour
1/4-1/2 cup ground flax
2-4 TBSP melted butter (start with 2 and then add more if need more moisture)
2 TBSP Canola oil
1/2 cup Stevia
Drizzle of vanilla extract
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 to 1 teaspoon cinnamon
sea salt
Dark chocolate chips, though if I had the cacao nibs, i would have used them!

I mixed everything together and spooned onto a cookie sheet.

Baked them for about 5 minutes on 375, and then flattened them slightly with a spatula. Continue to bake until they begin to turn a golden brown.

Transfer to a cooling rack.

They can be crumbly, and a bit dry the first day, but they are quite yummy.

Next time, I will half the stevia and maybe add a good squeeze of agave or honey. This will limit the "stevia" after taste as well as maybe add some binding power with the stickiness of the syrup.

Enjoy!
