These simple almond flour chocolate chip cookies are not only delicious and easy to make—they're also beautifully supportive of your hormonal health in every phase of your cycle. Made with wholesome ingredients like almond flour, coconut oil, mineral-rich salt, vanilla, baking soda, and pure maple syrup, they deliver a balanced blend of healthy fats, natural sweetness, and blood-sugar-friendly nutrients. Almond flour provides vitamin E and magnesium, supporting hormone regulation and reducing inflammation. Coconut oil fuels your metabolism and supports hormone synthesis. You can also enhance these cookies with a scoop of your favorite collagen for added protein and gut-healing benefits. Best of all, they’re a flexible canvas—fold in hormone-supportive nuts that correspond to your cycle phase for an extra layer of nourishment.

RECIPE NOTES

• These cookies hardly spread, so how you shape them is how they will bake

Nut Add-In Suggestions by Cycle Phase:

• Menstrual Phase:
  Add walnuts, macadamia (white chocolate macadamia nut variation below↓) , or pumpkin seeds – rich in omega-3s and zinc to reduce inflammation and support progesterone balance as hormones reset.

• Follicular Phase:
  Add Brazil nuts and flax seeds – Brazil nuts offer selenium for thyroid and estrogen detox support, while flax seeds contain phytoestrogens and fiber to gently support rising estrogen levels.

• Ovulation Phase:
  Add almonds and sesame seeds – almonds are high in vitamin E for cervical fluid and skin support, and sesame seeds provide lignans that support estrogen balance.

• Luteal Phase:
  Add cashews and sunflower seeds – cashews offer B6 and magnesium to support mood and progesterone, while sunflower seeds help regulate inflammation and fluid retention.
