Peanut flour chocolate chip cookies are a great way to use that jar of peanut flour you bought and only ended up using for smoothies.
I like the simplicity of peanutbutter cookies so when I purchased a jar of peanut flour thought that I would use it to make cookies too. Peanut flour recipes tend to be smoothie related so I have been playing around with the flour. Cookies is an easy and tasty option. I added chocolate chips to these for the chocolate and peanut flavour combination. You could always omit the chocolate and just have plain peanut flour cookies if you wished.
Keto Cookies
These peanut flour cookies have the texture of a “regular” chocolate chip cookie. They are firm and are better the next day for more of a “bite” if you are hankering for a tougher cookie. However tempting it may be to scoff the lot when they come out of the oven, try to put aside a couple for the next day to see the difference in texture.
Cookie Tips
Cocoa powder could be added to these cookies but you would probably want to add a tablespoon of coconut milk to the dough to stop them being too dry. Maybe a dash of spice too.

So funny, this is the exact same recipe as Joyce Marcellus‘ listed on the ChocZero website, as well as her Instagram. I’m sure it’s just a coincidence.

I didn't have peanuts, only about 3/4 cup of peanut paste that no one here will eat. I used that with two cups of almond meal ( my usual flour substitute) and the remainder of your recipe, though without the chocolate chips.
The mixture was crumbly so I tossed in another egg. Perfect consistency for rolling into balls, which I flattened slightly with a fork dipped in corn flour. It made about three dozen small biscuits, nice and crisp with just a hint of peanut flavour.
Thanks for the inspiration!

Sounds lovely but I think you may have had cookies on the brain when you wrote the recipe. The ingredients list has peanut butter cookies as the first item. Although, I'm all for extra cookies in my cookies! I've seen peanut flour in Sainsbury's so I'll definitely be giving these a go x
