Chocolate chip cookies…who doesn’t love them? While I have an incredible recipe for tigernut flour chocolate chip cookies, I wanted to alter it a bit with the mini muffin tin I got over Christmas. While my original recipe is inherently autoimmune-protocol paleo in nature, I made today’s recipe with both my low carb and AIP followers in mind. While tigernut and arrowroot flour aren’t necessarily low in carbs per-say, I still wanted to make a version of my beloved cookie recipe with monk fruit instead of the added sugars. Overall, you can use maple sugar, monk fruit, or coconut sugar – the choice is yours. Whichever you choose, I know you will not be disappointed. As a note, if you are following the AIP, simply use raisins or homemade carob chips in place of the chocolate chips. Overall, there is not much more to say about this recipe except for try it! I know you’ll love them just as much as myself.
