Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- In a large bowl, mix the almond flour, coconut flour, matcha powder, salt, baking soda, and cinnamon with a fork until well mixed.
- In another bowl, whisk the egg, vanilla, maple syrup, olive oil, apple sauce, and almond milk together until well blended and the mixture thickens.
- Pour the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients and mix until everything is blended. Fold in the chocolate chips and raisins.
- Line an 8 x 8 inch aluminum pan/ nonstick pan with parchment paper. Pour the batter into the pan.
- Bake for 22-26 minutes, or until the edges are firm.

Notes

- Instead of almond milk, you can use any non-dairy milk of choice.
- Instead of raisins, you can add more chocolate chips. (But don't knock the raisins until you try it)
