Chocolate Chip Cookies (Paleo, Vegan + Nut-Free)

virgin coconut oil (solid and slightly softened (similar to softened butter))

sunflower seed butter or tahini (see Notes)

coconut sugar

flax eggs (2 tablespoons flax meal + 5 tablespoons water - whisk them together and let sit for 5 minutes to gel - see Notes for info about using real eggs)

vanilla extract

baking soda (use ¼ teaspoon if using sunflower seed butter - helps prevent the cookies from turning green when they cool!)

salt

coconut flour

chopped dark chocolate

Flaky sea salt (to sprinkle on top (optional))
