Once you have filtered the almond milk, there will be leftover almond pulp in the bag, known as okara. Squeeze out the excess milk and place the okara in a bowl.
Add the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt, and mix well. Then add the oil and milk, and mix again. Finally, add the chocolate chips and mix everything with your hands.
Using a tablespoon, form uniform balls and place them on a baking tray lined with parchment paper. Flatten the balls to form cookies (they will not spread further during baking).
Bake for 12 minutes at 180°C (350°F).
Let the cookies cool down and enjoy them for a snack! Bon appétit :-)
