Almond Butter Cookies

Almond Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies from Clean Eating Magazine

1 cup unsalted almond butter
3/4 cup sucanat (or sugar)
1 large egg
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp sea salt
3 oz dark chocolate, broken into small pieces (or chocolate chips)

Mix together first five ingredients until well blended. Stir in chocolate. Drop by rounded tablespoonfuls onto baking sheet. Bake at 350 degrees for 10 to 12 minutes or until lightly browned. Let cool on baking sheet for 5 minutes. Remove to a wire rack and let cool for 15 more minutes.

For an egg free version I use 1 teaspoon Chia Seed soaked in 1/4 cup water. I also add 1/2 teaspoon xanthan gum.
