Hemp Cookies
A dense protein cookie made with almond flour and hemp hearts. I think it's super delicious with chocolate chips and cinnamon notes!!
Servings: 15 cookies
Equipment
Ingredients
Dry Ingredients
- 1 cup flour
- 1 cup almond flour
- ¾ cup hemp hearts
- ½ cup coconut sugar or brown sugar
- ¼ cup ground flax seeds
- 1 tablespoon cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon salt
- ⅔ cups dark chocolate chips
Wet Ingredients
- ¼ cup milk
- ¼ cup olive oil
- 1 egg (flax egg can be used. See notes)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350˚Fahrenheit (175 °C).
- Combine dry ingredients (flour, almond flour, hemp hearts, coconut sugar, ground flax, cinnamon, salt, and chocolate chips) well in a large mixing bowl.
- Add the milk, olive oil, and egg to the dry mixture. It will seem dry at first. But continue to mix everything together, I like to use my hands to make a big dough ball.
- Form large tablespoon balls onto a parchment paper-lined baking sheet and softly flatten cookies. Bake for 18-20 minutes or until golden.
Notes

Dairy-free: I used almond milk and olive oil to make these cookies dairy-free.
Egg-free, flax egg: If you ran out of eggs or are allergic to eggs, I have tested this recipe with a flax egg. All you need to do is mix 1 tablespoon of ground flax seeds with 2 ½ tablespoons of cool water, let it sit for a few minutes to gel and use it as you would an egg in this recipe.
