Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the almond flour, baking soda, and salt.

Melt your coconut oil or unsalted butter, and let it cool slightly. Pour it into the bowl alongside the maple syrup, egg, and vanilla extract. Stir until well combined.

Add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture and stir until a smooth cookie dough forms. Chill for 10-15 minutes if sticky.

Fold in the dark chocolate chips until evenly distributed.

Scoop the dough onto the prepared baking sheet and flatten them slightly.

Bake for 10-12 minutes until the edges are golden and centers remain soft.

Allow to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
