Gluten-Free Chocolate Chip Cookies

Naturally sweetened, gluten-free chocolate chip cookies made with almond meal and coconut flour. These cookies remind me of classic Tollhouse cookies, but much more healthy and easy to make—only one bowl required! Since this recipe is egg free, it is easily made vegan by substituting coconut oil for butter and using maple syrup instead of honey.
