Prep Time 10 minutes
Cook Time 10 minutes
Total Time 20 minutes
Serving Size 9

Equipment

  • measuring cups & spoons
  • large bowl
  • spoon
  • baking sheet
  • parchment paper

Ingredients

  • cup oat flour
  • cup coconut sugar
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • cup unsweetened applesauce
  • 2 tablespoons unsweetened plant-based milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • cup nondairy dark chocolate chips

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 325°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Add the oat flour, coconut sugar, baking powder, and baking soda to a large bowl. Stir to combine. 
  • Add the applesauce, plant-based milk, and vanilla extract to the large bowl. Stir until just combined.
  • Gently fold in the chocolate chips. 
  • Use a spoon to gently scoop 9 even rounds onto the prepared baking sheet. The dough will be sticky: once it touches the baking sheet, don’t try to pick it up or push it around. Where it touches is where it should stay.
  • Bake for 9 to 10 minutes.
  • Remove from heat and let the cookies rest on the baking sheet at room temperature for at least 5 minutes.
  • Transfer the cookies to a cooling rack and allow them to continue to cool for at least 10 minutes. Enjoy!

Notes

  • Store in a covered container at room temperature for up to 2 days, then transfer to the fridge for up to 3 more days.
  • Gluten-free vegan chocolate chip cookies may also be frozen for up to 1 month.
