Ingredients
1
small ripe avocado
80
g
golden caster sugar
40
g
dark brown sugar
(I used muscovado, but coconut sugar is good too)
1
large egg
(I used a duck egg)
½
tsp
vanilla extract
1
pinch
sea salt
180
g
wholemeal flour
½
tsp
baking powder
50
g
dark chocolate chips
(or chocolate chopped from a bar)
25
g
white chocolate chips
(for dairy free use all dark chocolate).
Instructions
Peel and stone the avocado then mash it with a fork in a large bowl.
Beat in the sugars.
Beat in the egg, vanilla extract and salt.
Sift in the flour and baking powder. Throw in any bran that's left in the sieve.
Stir until it's just about mixed, then stir in the chocolate chips.
Transfer the mixture to a small bowl, cover and leave in the fridge for at least an hour to firm up. Overnight is fine.
Preheat the oven to 180℃ (160℃ fan, 350℉, Gas 4).
Place heaped teaspoonfuls of the dough on a lined baking tray. Make sure they're spaced well apart. I made 20.
Flatten them roughly with a fork and bake for 13 minutes or until golden.
Allow to firm up for a couple of minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
