Peanut Butter & Dark Chocolate Yumminess (Gluten Free)


½ cup creamy peanut butter (I used about ½ a jar –love PB)
¼ cup vegan palm oil shortening
½ cup coconut palm sugar
1 egg
1 ¼ cup blanched almond flour
¼ cup oat flour
½ teaspoon sea salt
½ cup dark chocolate chips (70% or higher)
In a large bowl, cream peanut butter, shortening, palm sugar and egg with a hand blender until smooth.  Stir in almond & oat flour and salt.  Scoop about a tablespoon of mixture into a ball and place onto a parchment lined baking sheet. Make a large thumbprint in the center of each cookie. Fill the thumbprint with dark chocolate chips and bake at 350° for 8-10 minutes.

Side Note: If you don't want to buy 2 different flours you can use all almond flour or all oat flour.  I have done both with scrumptious success.
