Ingredients

    ½ cup brown rice flour
    ½ cup buckwheat flour
    ¼ cup quinoa flour
    ¼ cup millet flour
    ½ cup sweet rice flour
    ½ cup ground hazelnuts
    2 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder
    2 tsp guar gum
    1 tsp sea salt
    1 ½ tsp baking powder
    3 tbsp ground flaxseed
    1/3 cup warm water
    ½ cup sugar
    1/3 cup dark brown sugar
    ¼ tsp pure stevia powder
    1/3 cup oil
    2 tbsp Frangelico
    ½ cup unsweetened vanilla almond milk
    1/3 cup miniature dark chocolate chips

Directions

Preheat the oven to 375°F. Line baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone.
Whisk together the dry ingredients (flours through baking powder). Set aside.
In a large bowl beat together flaxseed and water, then add sugars, stevia, oil, Frangelico, and almond milk.
Add the dry ingredients.
As you beat the dough pay close attention to the consistency – add liquid until you achieve a smooth but sturdy dough.
Stir in chocolate chips until combined (the dough is stiff).
Place 2" apart on lined sheets and flatten slightly.
Bake 12 minutes (they will still be slightly soft).
Cool on the sheets 15 minutes, then move to a wire rack.
The cookies will get crisper as they cool.
