Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies (Vegan, Gluten-Free, Oil-Free)
These plant-based vegan peanut butter chocolate chip cookies are delicious and healthy! They have no refined sugar and are totally oil-free. Even the kids will love them!
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup natural peanut butter
- 1/3 cup coconut sugar
- 2 tbsp applesauce
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup gluten-free flour I used the Trader Joe's blend
- 1/4 tsp baking soda
- 1/3 cup chocolate chips I used mini ones
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Add the natural peanut butter, coconut sugar, applesauce and vanilla extract to a mixing bowl. Mix until completely combined.
- Add flour and baking soda to the wet ingredients and mix. Don't over mix! Fold in the chocolate chips.
- Measure out a heaping tbsp of the dough for each cookie, roll into a ball then flatten them into a cookie shape. I got about 11 cookies.
- Bake for 8-9 minutes. As they cool, they will set. Wait 20 minutes for them to completely cool. Careful not to over-bake! They will dry out.
