Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine almond flour, coconut flour, erythritol, baking soda, and salt. Whisk until well mixed.
  3. In another bowl, mix together applesauce, vanilla extract, and egg until smooth.
  4. Pour wet mixture into dry mixture and stir until well combined. Fold in sugar-free chocolate chips.
  5. Scoop portions of dough onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, giving enough space as they will spread.
Baking
  1. Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown.
  2. Let cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

Store cookies in an airtight container for up to 5 days. For longer storage, freeze dough balls up to 2 months. Bake from frozen, adding 1-2 minutes to baking time.
