Chocolate Chip Cookies (Vegan + GF)

8/26/2017 2 Comments
 
These are MY BEST Vegan Chocolate Chip Cookies to date. They are also gluten-free, oil-free and refined sugar-free with healthy options along the way. The dough can be eaten raw, the cookies baked and enjoyed promptly. It is a fast, easy recipe and yields amazing results that you'd never know were vegan.

Yields About 24 Cookies
​​
Ingredients:

1/4 Cup Coconut Oil / Coconut Butter 
1/2 Cup Coconut Sugar
3 Tbsp. Aquafaba
1 tsp Pure Vanilla Extract
1 /2 tsp Sea Salt 
1 Cup Rice Flour 
1/2 Cup Starch (I used Potato)
1 tsp Baking Powder (aluminum free)
1 Cup Chocolate Chips (70% Cacao+ if possible / Vegan)

Peaceful Preparation:
  1. Preheat oven to 350° F / 175°C. Line baking sheet with parchment paper, gently grease or baking mat. 
  2. Combine the coconut oil and sugar together, mix together on a low speed. I used a hand mixer, a mixing stand or by hand or even food processor are other options.
  3. Once thoroughly combined add the aquafaba and vanilla. Mix until well combined.
  4. Add the dry ingredients (either mixing in a small bowl or not, either way you'll be okay) and gradually incorporate on a low speed, adding a little of the dry mixture at a time.
  5. Fold in the chocolate chips.
  6. Either refrigerate for 30+ minutes or do as I do, and immediately place on your baking sheet in rounded tablespoons, gently forming into a cookie and bake for 10 minutes. Remove, cool for 1-2 minutes. Transfer to a cooling rack and enjoy! 

Notes / Options:
  • Fattier Cookies: Double the coconut oil/butter and sugar. Earth balance butter works great vs. coconut oil/butter. You could even use a vegetable oil like avocado or olive. 
  • Healthier Cookies: Try this recipe! (No sugar, oil or grains)
  • Oil-Free Options: Coconut Butter, Cacao Butter, Nut or Seed Butter, try Applesauce.
  • Sugar: Try maple syrup, or use your favorite sweetener like cane sugar, muscovado, syrup, even date paste.
  • Aquafaba is the liquid found in chickpeas. Feel free to use your favorite vegan egg replacement, QTY 1.
  • Flour/Starch: Omit the rice flour and starch and replace with 1 1/2 Cups Gluten-Free All Purpose Baking Flour (like Bob's Red Mill 1 to 1.) If not allergic to gluten, all purpose flour or wheat flour works great here. 
  • Recipe veganized + adapted from Ratio's Classic Chocolate Chip Cookies.

Hi! Just wondering how these are oil free cookies (as you state in the heading...), when the ingredient list has coconut oil/coconut butter. in them..?

I am dying to making an oil free no fat cookie, but your recipe looks like it has fat/oil in it even though it says oil free.

Help?
Ideas?

Thx!!

Hi Ali,

To go oil-free coconut butter, cacao butter, nut butter (almond, peanut etc), seed butter (tahini, sunflower...) and perhaps even something like applesauce, banana purée, white bean purée, tofu (steamed tofu) would be some options. Let me know how it goes!

I also have these healthy ones: https://www.artisticvegan.com/blog/healthy-chocolate-chip-cookies-exciting-features

Happy Baking and Happy New Year!
