Since switching to a plant based diet, I thought it was going to be harder to satisfy my sweet tooth. But, I now have no question in my mind that you can. And...it's so easy!! These vegan chewy cookies are so good. I can honestly say they are better than the ones I grew up on. And with no guilt? I'll take the whole tray! These are also gluten and soy free. Perfect to bake for your family and your friends. Give them a try! Would love reviews as well. Here's a few mouth watering pictures of these delicious sweet morsels.
Okay, if those pictures didn't make you want to make these, I don't know what will! Keep reading for the recipe.
Ingredients:
1 1/3 cup oat flour
1/3 cup unsweetened apple sauce
1/4 cup gluten free baking flour - I used Bob's Red Mill made from mainly garbanzo beans and sorghum flour
1/4 cup cocao powder
1 tbsp. ground flax seed
1/3 cup almond butter
1/4 cup coconut sugar
1/4 cup stevia baking sugar
1/2 cup dairy free dark chocolate chips
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. sea salt
2 tsp. pure vanilla extract
Directions:
In a mixer, mix together almond butter, apple sauce, flaxseed, coconut sugar, stevia, and vanilla.
Once smooth, mix in oat flour, baking soda, and salt.
Add in remaining ingredients - gluten free baking flour, chocolate chips, and cocoa powder.
Spray a cookie sheet with coconut oil or olive oil non stick cooking spray. Roll dough into small balls and flatten slightly until about the size of a small cookie.
Bake at 350 for 9 minutes. Remove and let cool for about 5 minutes, then enjoy!
