“Chocolate” Chunk Cookies (AIP) Print 2 LikeDislike By Jessica Flanigan This girl likes her cookies. So when I found out that I would need to start following the autoimmune protocol (AIP) to help heal a leaky gut, my old-standby of Seriously Chewy Chocolate Chip Cookies were a no-go. Out of desperation, comes yumminess for you guys as well. I hope you like these Chocolate Chunk Cookies made with gelatin.I can tell you, it is not easy to follow this protocol. Although these cookies are good, they were still created as a treat in a way of eating that seems so limiting. Something to help everyone feel a bit more “normal” while living in a world where they can’t eat normal. In the real world of convenience foods (even the paleo/”clean” ones), restaurants and anything else created to help simplify real food for the majority of people, there are ingredients that someone on AIP cannot have. Paprika is in EVERYTHING. And even if it doesn’t say paprika, for some reason “spices” and “natural flavors” are perfectly acceptable ingredients list items, which pretty much translates to me as “don’t even bother.”So having been AIP just over a month now, I feel the need for normalcy. I’ll be honest and say I’ve cried a few tears in my kitchen. I’ve sobbed while washing the thousandth dish that week since I am literally cooking every dang day. I know I am not alone.And I just want a cookie.(did you just picture me on the floor, pounding my fists on the ground, having a tantrum??)
Cara December 21, 2020 at 3:57 pmHelp! I made these cookies today and for some reason they melted rather than baked. My cookie sheet was filled with a thin layer of “cookie.” I followed the directions exactly. In spite of the outcome, they tasted great! I would love to make them again but I’m not sure what to do differently so I actually end up with cookies! Any suggestions? Reply ↓
