Often I want a simple cookie recipe that doesn’t make too many and is more than a plain cookie. I love baking with tiger nut flour as an AIP alternative to other nut/seed flours. It adds a nice sweetness and makes AIP baking easier. As much as I love chocolate chip cookies, not only are there plenty of recipes for them, but I don’t handle chocolate well so enter BLUEBERRIES! You could certainly sub chocolate chips for the blueberries in this recipe, though.

I hope you enjoy this simple cookie recipe as much as I do. It’s perfect for the evenings you are craving a sweet, comforting snack but don’t want to make a giant batch of cookies you’ll never get through (or will end up eating all in one night ;).

AIP Blueberry Tiger nut Cookies (Vegan, Paleo)

Makes 9 cookies

Ingredients:

-3/4 cup Tigernut flour

-1/4 cup cassava flour

-1/4 tsp baking soda

-pinch of salt

-1/4 cup maple syrup

-3 tbs. coconut oil

-2 tbs. applesauce

-1 tsp. vanilla

-1/4 cup blueberries

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350F.

Mix all dry ingredients together in a medium bowl.

Whisk wet ingredients together in a small bowl except blueberries.

Add the wet to the dry and combine thoroughly. Gently fold in the blueberries.

Place scoops of dough on a lined baking sheet, pressing down gently.

Bake for 18 minutes and then let cool completely before eating (this is important, otherwise they fall apart!).

I actually really love these frozen. They maintain a soft, chewy texture that is excellent!
