It’s important to note that not all coconut flours are the same. Different brands can vary in density and they can have slightly different absorption abilities. They can even have different calorie values.

We use a granulated sweetener with the exact same sweetness and weight to sugar – this makes it really easy to substitute in recipes like these Double Choc Chip Cookies.

If you are using a powdered sweetener, then please check how it compares to sugar. In some cases you’ll need to use less, as powdered sweeteners weigh less.

Coconut flour is great to use as a substitute for normal flour. Since coconut flour is rich in fibre, it absorbs more liquid than most other flours. This means you can reduce the amount of coconut flour (and also the calorie value) when you swap with regular wheat flour. You can buy some here on Amazon.

There are lots of high quality granulated sweeteners available from the supermarket, such as Canderel Sugarly, and Natvia.

How many calories are in these Double Choc Chip Cookies?

There are 40 calories per portion in these Double Choc Chip Cookies, which means they falls into our Everyday Light category.

As a guide, an average man needs around 2,500kcal (10,500kJ) a day to maintain a healthy body weight. For an average woman, that figure is around 2,000kcal (8,400kJ) a day.

Hi, I made these today and although they didn’t come out like biscuits they were delicious. They weren’t at all crunchy, more like a cake consistency. I still enjoyed them but would like to know what I did wrong and how I make them more biscuity?

Reply

    LisaTuesday 19th May 2020

    Hi Sharon. Thanks for your comment. Coconut flour makes a softer biscuit than normal flour, so I don’t think anything went wrong. Our Chocolate and Orange Biscuits use normal wheat flour so you might like them if you prefer a crunchier biscuit. You can find them here https://pinchofnom.com/recipes/chocolate-and-orange-biscuits/ Hope this helps!

What sweetener is used in recipe

Reply

    Emma TFriday 13th September 2019

    Hi Karen,

    We prefer to use a granulated sweetener which has a like-for-like weight with sugar – sukrin, canderel sugarly or natvia are good options!

    Hope that helps!

My mixture was very thick and dry and didn’t space out any ideas?
I used 2 eggs but seems not enough liquid?

    Emma TThursday 19th September 2019

    Hi Janine,

    It sounds like your coconut flour was particularly absorbent! You could try adding an extra egg ????

Help! I’ve only got Splenda which is a 1:1 sugar replacement, but 135g is more than a box and way over the 9 tablespoons the recipe suggests. Any thoughts what I should do, the children are sooo disappointed

Hi Philip,

These cookies have more of a soft texture, but are VERY chocolatey and delish ????

Could you use choc shot instead of cocoa powder …? I don’t have cocoa but do have choc shot in

Reply

    Emma TSunday 10th September 2017

    Hi Sarah,

    You would need to use cocoa powder as it is will affect the consistency of the mixture and the way it cooks without it.

Hi, im going to make these on Thursday! I cant get hold of sukrin, how many grams of sweetner would i use?

Thanks x

Reply

    Emma TSunday 10th September 2017

    Hi Roni,

    It really depends on the sweetener you use – each brand’s website should have a conversion chart. Sukrin weighs the same as sugar and I would recommend using a properly granulated sweetener rather than a powdered type.

    Hope that helps!

HannahWednesday 30th August 2017

Made these the other day, turned out fantastic, very tastey, just wondering if you had a recommendation for keeping them from going soft?
I stored them in an airtight container with a layer of non stick baking paper inbetween each layer of cookies but after the first day they’ve softened right up in to nearly a cakey texture.

    You could pop them back in the oven for a few minutes to refresh ????

    Yes you can! Make sure to pop a little bit of parchment paper between them so they are easier to separate.

Have tried making these twice now and they have come out flat both times but I’m following the recipe to the letter, what am I doing wrong ?

Reply

    Emma TMonday 11th September 2017

    Hi Kirsty,

    Make sure you leave the mixture for a couple of minutes so the coconut flour absorbs the moisture – this should help to stop them becoming too flat.

    Hope that helps!

JaneWednesday 2nd August 2017

Made these today and they were lovely. I want to adapt it so its not double chocolate – just normal cookies with choc chips in them. Do I just leave out the cocoa? What should I replace it with please?

Reply

    Emma TMonday 11th September 2017

    Hi Jane,

    The cocoa adds some extra bulk to the mixture, you would need to replace it with some extra sukrin coconut flour to compensate – it would be trial and error as we’ve not tried the recipe without cocoa ????

Little confused because your picture shows bicarbonate of soda, but the recipe and instructions state baking soda. Which one should I use? X

    Hi Jodie
    Baking soda and bicarbonate of soda are just different names for the same thing.

Sooooo good, I ate them straight from the oven and burned my fingers but worth it! Great recipe, it worked perfectly for me. Although I should have listened to you about spacing them out properly as they had all melded into one giant biscuit. Which was fine with me.

NaomiSunday 26th March 2017

Hi
If I am using ordinary flour will the mixture be a lot dryer, as there is more flour than when using coconut flour? If so how would you suggest we get the dropping consistency?

Reply

    KateFriday 31st March 2017

    Hi Naomi
    No, it won’t be drier if you are using normal flour. Coconut flour is extremely absorbent, so you only have to use a small amount compared to normal flour. You would generally use 1/4 cup to 1/3 cup coconut flour for 1 cup grain-based flour

MollyTuesday 14th March 2017

I made this they were lovely but very sweet is 137gr correct for surkin. Thank you

Reply

    KateWednesday 15th March 2017

    Hi Molly
    You use Sukrin in the same ratio as normal brown or white sugar as it’s the same weight, consistency and sweetness as normal sugar, so the when the original recipe was converted to SW this was taken into account. However if you think it’s too sweet then you can reduce the amount you put in

    Reply

AlisonSunday 12th March 2017

Have just made these – delicious! I added a splash of water to mixture as mine was too thick – my eggs may not have been large enough – and used dark chocolate chips. Well worth making! Thank you.

Can you suggest an alternative to coconut flour, I don’t like coconut and I’m guessing the cookies will have a coconut flavour? Kind regards Karen

Omg just eating one straight out of the oven and it’s like a delicious warm brownie. Gorgeous. Used sucralose sweetener as don’t have sukrin. Reduced the amount but still a little too sweet.

Reply

    KateSunday 25th September 2016

    Hi Sandra,
    Glad you enjoyed them! One of the good things about Sukrin is you can use it exactly as you would sugar, so the ratio is 1:1. This isn’t the case with most other sweeteners so it will be a matter of trial and error before you get the quantity spot on.

Theresa GobleSunday 21st August 2016

Just made these but couldn’t get the Sukrin sugar replacement so used Stevia instead. They taste yummy, so nice to have a gluten free SW friendly cookie recipe. Thank you. Will definitely use again and try and order Sukrin on line.
