Preheat oven to 350 degrees
In first bowl mix:
* 1/2 Cup almond flour
* 1/2 Cup freshly ground flax seed
* 1/2 Teaspoon baking soda
In second bowl:
* Warm 1/2 cup of virgin coconut oil or organic butter and whisk in 1/4 cup organic sugar (this is half of what the orginal recipe called for and you can even put less in if you wish)
* Beat in 1 egg
* Add 1 teaspoon vanilla
Beat together until fluffy
Stir the dry ingredients from first bowl into the wet ingredients and mix until blended
* Stir in 4 oz organic dark chocolate chips
* Add 1/2 cup unsalted sunflower seeds
* Add 1/2 cup unsweetened organic coconut
Drop 1 teaspoon full of mix on sheet, 2" apart
Bake at 350 for 10-12 minutes
After they cool (and you eat a few), store in freezer because they hold together better and last longer.
