Foolproof Vegan Gluten Free Chocolate Chip Cookies.
You have to try this easy recipe for chewy, amazing, gluten free vegan chocolate chip cookies. This is a classic recipe that never goes out of style!
Ingredients
- ⅔ cup vegan buttery spread
- ¾ cup light brown sugar
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- 1 ½ Tablespoons maple syrup
- ¼ cup mashed banana or unsweetened applesauce
- 1 ½ teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2 ⅛ cups gluten free flour blend I've used Namaste, Living Now Foods, and Enjoy Life successfully
- ¾ teaspoon sea salt
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon baking powder
- 1 ½ cups dairy free chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper.
- Cream the buttery spread and sugars in a large bowl. Add the mashed banana, maple syrup, and vanilla extract and mix on medium speed until combined.
- Add the flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Mix until combined.
- Stir in the dairy free chocolate chips.
- Drop rounded tablespoons of the dough on the cookie sheet, leaving about an inch between each cookie. Bake at 350 degrees F for 11-13 minutes. They will look a little bit underdone, but will cook a little bit more as they cool on the cookie sheet.
- Repeat step 5 with remaining dough.
- If you are going to freeze the dough, just drop rounded tablespoons of dough on the cookie sheet and stick it in the freezer for a couple of hours. Once firm, put the dough balls in a freezer bag and store in the freezer until it's time to bake them. When you want to bake them, bake at 350 degrees for 13-15 minutes.
Notes
Different store bought gluten free flour blends could change the consistency of the batter. This should be thick - like "normal" cookie dough. If for some reason you have a thin, cake-like batter, then add a little more gluten free flour blend until the dough is thicker.
You can also use my homemade gluten free flour blend in this recipe.
If you are not gluten free, you can use regular all-purpose flour or whole wheat flour.
Store leftover cookies in an airtight container. They should stay fresh for about 5 days.
This cookie dough can be frozen. Place balls of cookie dough on a baking sheet and freeze until firm. Then store in a freezer bag for up to three months. Bake as directed - the cookies may take a couple more minutes of baking time from frozen.
