Hi Bold Bakers! As an expert on healthy baking and guilt-free desserts, I am here to show you that even the most decadent sweets and treats can be made with wholesome all-natural ingredients that actually nourish your body while still tasting big & bold – and these vegan chocolate chip cookies are no exception! Already have an account? These thick bakery style chocolate chip cookies are free of refined sugar, flour, gluten, and dairy. Instead, they are packed with nutrients and healthy fats from my go-to ingredients like almond flour, coconut flour, coconut oil and of course chocolate!
How to make vegan chocolate chip cookies
While these cookies look and taste arguably better than a regular cookie, they are made of a perfectly balanced list of plant-based ingredients that you most likely already have on hand. There is no need for dairy or eggs in these cookies as they are perfectly bound together with sticky and sweet maple syrup and coconut oil. The little bit of coconut flour used in these cookies really holds them together and creates that chewy middle and crisp outer edged. Who could say no to an indulgent chocolate chip cookie that is actually full of nourishing ingredients? Truth is these cookies are for everyone, not just for those that are vegan.
How to make coconut flour
Coconut flour is not a flour at all, it’s really just dried shredded coconut ground into a fine powder then used in place of other flours and starches. This is a super healthy swap for flour that can be used in raw or baked desserts. The flavor is very neutral and a little goes a long way as coconut flour absorbs liquid ingredients very quickly. It’s perfect for my Vegan Chocolate Chip Cookies!
Making the perfect vegan cookie
While my vegan chocolate chips cookies do combine some things you may have never used before, the method is foolproof. Just like any other cookie, you mix the dry ingredients into the wet and from there add in your flavorings. I of course added loads of chocolate chunks but feel free to add in your favorite nuts and dried fruit!
