Ingredients
  

Cookies

  • 1 cup almond flour
  • 3 tbsp maple syrup
  • 2 tbsp coconut oil melted
  • 1 tsp vanilla

Banana Caramel

  • 1 1/2 super ripe bananas
  • 4 tbsp coconut sugar
  • 1/3 cup canned coconut milk
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla
  • pinch sea salt

Chocolate coating

  • 1 1/4 cups chocolate chips

Instructions
 

  • Blend the banana caramel ingredients in a blender until smooth. Add it to a pot over medium-high heat, bringing it to a boil. Reduce the heat to a simmer for 15-20 minutes, until its begins to thicken.
  • Meanwhile, mix together the cookie ingredients until dough forms. Roll into balls and place on a lined cookie sheet. Flatten them slightly with your palm, as they won't spread on their own.
  • Bake at 325F for 15 or so minutes, until the edges begin to golden. Let cool.
  • Add a dollop of the caramel to the tops of the cooled cookies. Place in the freezer to allow it to firm up a bit, so you can dip them in the melted chocolate - about 15 mins.
  • Once hardened enough to dip, melt the chocolate. Quickly dip each cookie into the chocolate and return to the cookie sheet. Place in the freezer until ready to eat!

Notes
