These Carob Brownie Cookies are rich, fudgy, and full of indulgent flavor without the refined sugar or cocoa. Made with NOW Real Food® Carob Powder, carob chips, and naturally sweetened with organic coconut sugar, they offer a satisfying brownie-like texture in a soft-baked cookie. Almond flour and Ellyndale® Organic Extra Virgin Olive Oil keep things gluten free and wholesome, making this an easy, feel-good dessert for any chocolate-free cookie lover.

Ingredients
½ cup carob chips
¼ cup Carob Powder
¼ teaspoon sea salt
½ teaspoon baking powder
1 large egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Directions
  1. Preheat oven to 350ºF and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Combine olive oil and ½ cup of carob chips in a double boiler over medium heat until smooth. Remove from heat and set bowl aside.
  3. In a separate small mixing bowl, combine almond flour, carob powder, baking powder and sea salt.
  4. Beat together egg, coconut sugar and vanilla extract in a medium mixing bowl until creamy, about 20 seconds.
  5. Gradually beat in melted carob mixture followed by flour mixture. Fold in ¼ cup of carob chips. Use a cookie scooper to scoop dough on baking sheet 3-inches apart. Bake for 9-10 minutes, until cookies are just set.
  6. Repeat with remaining dough. Cool on baking sheet for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire cooling rack to cool completely.
