    As Passover approaches, the joyous celebration of freedom and tradition calls for delicious treats that honor the holiday's significance. These Passover Chocolate Chip Cookies perfectly blend the essence of tradition with the irresistible allure of homemade sweets. Made with simple ingredients that adhere to Passover dietary restrictions, these cookies boast a delightful texture and a burst of chocolaty goodness in every bite.

    Passover cookies

    The recipe this time is a delicious Passover chocolate chip cookies but in reality, these cookies are perfect all year round. If you avoid eating gluten or are looking for an easy cookie recipe, then this is your go-to recipe for sure!

    With only 4 ingredients, you can easily whip these cookies and after a very short time, you can munch away! Unlike store-bought Passover cookies, these ones are soft and chewy. If you have some vanilla extract then you can add a teaspoon to elevate the flavor of the cookies.

    The main ingredient in these cookies is almond flour or almond meal. Basically it is almonds ground very fine and in many Passover recipes, you can find this ingredient. Because this recipe doesn’t call for special Passover ingredients like matzo meal for example it is very easy to bake all year for anyone on a gluten free diet.

    Like almost all cookie recipes on my blog, you only need 1 bowl and a tablespoon to make these easy cookies. If you prefer changing the chocolate chips to something different then you can use raisins, other nuts or just stick to chocolate chips - everyone loves chocolate!

    On top of it all, this recipe is non-dairy so it’s parve and you can have these chocolate chip cookies as your holiday dessert or for a Shabbat meal.

    Like always, if you have a big family and need more cookies then simply double the ingredients. This year a lot of people are alone for the holiday and therefore don’t need a lot of cookies but still want to have a small little sweet treat.

    The recipe yields 15 small cookies

    Tips for Passover Chocolate Chip Cookies:

    Almond Meal Consistency

    Ensure that your almond meal is finely ground for a smooth texture in the cookies. If you can't find almond meal, you can grind whole almonds in a food processor until they reach a fine, flour-like consistency.

    Sugar Selection

    Use granulated sugar that is certified kosher for Passover. You can also use a Passover-approved sweetener like coconut sugar if preferred.

    Egg Binding

    The egg in this recipe serves as a binding agent. Make sure to mix it well with the other ingredients to achieve a uniform batter. If you have an egg allergy or follow a vegan diet, you can try using a flaxseed or chia seed "egg" as a substitute.

    Chocolate Chip Options

    Opt for kosher-certified chocolate chips to ensure they meet Passover dietary guidelines. Alternatively, you can chop up a Passover-friendly chocolate bar into small chunks.

    Baking Time and Temperature

    Keep a close eye on the cookies while they bake. Since ovens vary, the baking time may slightly differ. The cookies are ready when they turn golden brown around the edges.

    Cooling Process

    Allow the cookies to cool completely on a wire rack before enjoying them. This helps to set their texture and prevents them from crumbling.

    Storage

    Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week. If you're making them in advance, you can freeze the cookies for longer shelf life. Just ensure they are properly wrapped to maintain their freshness.

    Customization

    Feel free to customize these cookies by adding chopped nuts, dried fruit, or a sprinkle of sea salt for an extra burst of flavor. Get creative and make them your own!

    FAQS

    Can I use almond flour instead of almond meal?

    Yes, almond flour can be used interchangeably with almond meal in this recipe. Just ensure that it is finely ground for best results.

    I'm allergic to almonds. What can I substitute for almond meal?

    If you have a nut allergy, you can try using coconut flour or a gluten-free flour blend as a substitute. Keep in mind that the texture and flavor may vary slightly.

    Can I make these cookies without sugar?

    While sugar adds sweetness and helps with the texture of the cookies, you can experiment with alternative sweeteners such as honey, maple syrup, or a sugar substitute like stevia. Adjust the amount according to your taste preferences.

    Can I add other mix-ins to the cookies?

    Absolutely! Feel free to get creative and add chopped nuts, dried fruit, coconut flakes, or a sprinkle of sea salt to customize the cookies to your liking.

    Are these cookies gluten-free?

    Yes, these Passover Chocolate Chip Cookies are naturally gluten-free since they are made with almond meal and do not contain any wheat flour.

    Can I freeze the cookie dough?

    Yes, you can freeze the cookie dough for later use. Shape the dough into individual cookie balls, place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, and freeze until solid. Once frozen, transfer the cookie dough balls to a freezer bag or airtight container. When ready to bake, simply place the frozen dough balls on a baking sheet and bake as directed, adding a couple of extra minutes to the baking time.

      Thanks for the recipe! Do you use Celsius or Fahrenheit in you baking, because you wrote 170°C / 350°F , but 170°C is 340 F and 350 F is 175 C, so, I want to know the correct temperature for the baking those cookies. Will await the reply.
      Thank you
