Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup creamy unsweetened and all-natural peanut butter
  • 1/2 cup melted coconut oil
  • 1 cup coconut sugar
  • 1 large egg + 1 large egg yolk
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 3/4 cup finely ground blanched almond flour (I used Bob’s Red Mill)
  • 1/2 cup gluten free rolled oats
  • 1/4 cup unsweetened finely shredded coconut
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/3 cup chocolate candies, plus a few more for the top (I used Unreal Dark Chocolate candies)
  • 1/3 cup dark chocolate chips, plus a few more for the top
  • 1/3 cup chopped pecans

Method

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray a 10-inch cast iron skillet with non-stick spray.
  2. Whisk together the peanut butter, coconut oil, coconut sugar, egg, egg yolk, and vanilla extract until well combined.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the almond flour, oats, shredded coconut, baking soda, and salt.
  4. Fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients to create the cookie dough batter.
  5. Add the chocolate candies, chocolate chips, and chopped pecans.
  6. Transfer the cookie dough to the prepared skillet. Use a rubber spatula or the back of a spoon to spread out the dough and press it into even layer in the skillet. Sprinkle a few extra chocolate candies and dark chocolate chips on top and use a spatula to press them into the top of the dough just a bit.
  7. Bake the cookie skillet for 18-22 minutes at 350 degrees until the edges are golden brown, and a skewer inserted in the middle comes out clean.
  8. Let the skillet cookie cool for 5-10 minutes before serving. Serve with vanilla ice cream and extra chocolate shavings on top if you like!
