These gluten free, coconut, chocolate chip cookies will make you forget all about gluten as you reach for seconds, thirds, fourths…

In my journey to eat food that helps and heals my body, rather than hurts it, I have fallen in love with coconut – especially coconut oil. Considering two years ago I wouldn’t even drink a pina colada, I am totally surprised that I now add coconut oil to foods as often as I can.

(By the way, if you want a more traditional chocolate chip cookie, or if you want to understand everything that goes into making the best chocolate chip cookies, check out our in-depth chocolate chip cookie recipe.)

Coconut oil is so versatile and delicious, I use it in everything from popcorn topping, like my Peanut Butter Nutella Popcorn, to baking, like my Pumpkin Oatmeal Breakfast Cookies.

With these gluten free, chocolate chip cookies, I pumped up the coconut flavor and nutrition by using coconut oil, shredded coconut, coconut milk, and even some coconut flour. (Because coconut flour absorbs a lot of liquid, I used coconut milk to add moisture to the recipe.) Yes, these are some very coconut cookies!

Gluten Free Coconut, Chocolate Chip Cookies

Coconut oil, coconut milk, shredded coconut, and coconut flour, make these gluten free chocolate chip cookies burst with flavor.

    These look fantastic! I’ve been changing up my recipes and seeking out healthier ways to make things (such as chocolate chip cookies) and I can’t wait to give these a try.
