Equipment

  • mixing bowl
  • Skillet
  • Whisk
  • spatula
  • baking sheet
  • parchment paper
  • wire rack

Ingredients
  

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 ⅓ cups gluten-free measure-for-measure flour (200g)
  • ¼ cup almond flour (25g)
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt

Other Ingredients

  • ½ cup butter (113g)
  • 1 tablespoon milk of choice
  • ¾ cup brown sugar (160g)
  • ¼ cup granulated sugar (50g)
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1 cup chocolate chips (170g)
  • 1 pinch sea salt for sprinkling, optional

Instructions
 

Instructions

  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the gluten-free flour, almond flour, baking soda and salt. Set aside.
  • Melt the butter in a medium skillet over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally.
  • Once the butter is melted and begins to foam, stir continuously to prevent the milk solids from sticking to the skillet. The butter will change from yellow to golden brown quickly and will have a nutty aroma. Remove from the heat and immediately pour into a medium bowl.
  • Add the milk, brown sugar and granulated sugar to the brown butter. Whisk to combine.
  • Whisk in the egg and vanilla until smooth and creamy.
  • Using a rubber spatula, mix in the dry ingredients until well-combined. Stir in the chocolate chips.
  • Cover the bowl and let the dough sit at room temperature for 30 minutes, or refrigerate for up to 5 days.
  • Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line large baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
  • Scoop the cookie dough into round balls, about 2 tablespoons per ball. Place on the prepared baking sheet, about 2 inches apart.
  • Bake for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are golden brown and the center is set.
  • Remove from the oven and cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes. Sprinkle with flaky salt, if desired. Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

Be sure to use a gluten-free flour blend that contains xanthan gum. Other gluten-free flours that contain xanthan gum will also work. To make it dairy-free, use melted dairy-free butter, omit the milk, and use dairy-free chocolate chips. For nut-free, substitute additional gluten-free measure-for-measure flour for the almond flour. Refrigerating the dough yields more flavorful cookies. You can freeze cookie dough balls and store them in a resealable bag.
