Instructions
Line two rimmed baking sheets with silicone baking mats. Set aside.
In a small bowl, stir together flax and water.
Set aside in the fridge to gel for 15 minutes.
Once the flax mixture has set, pour it into a large bowl.
Add in coconut oil, vanilla, almond butter, and brown sugar.
Mix until *just* combined.
Add in almond flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
Mix until *just* combined.
Stir in chocolate chips/chunks, again, until *just* combined.
Using a 1/4 cup measuring cup, portion out 8 dough scoops onto each prepared baking sheet.
Use your hands to press each cookie to 1 inch thick (the cookies don’t spread much).
Place into fridge to chill for at least 30 minutes.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Bake cookies in preheated oven for 15 minutes.
Remove from oven and immediately sprinkle with maldon sea salt.
Let sit for 2-5 minutes before transferring to a cooling rack.
Serve and enjoy!

Notes
You don’t want to over-mix, because the almond butter/flour can become overly oily.
