These vegan chocolate chip cookies are a delightful treat that everyone will love! With a chewy texture and rich chocolate flavor, they’re perfect for any occasion—whether you’re hosting a gathering or simply indulging yourself. Here’s how to make them.
Ingredients
- 1 cup (240 ml) almond milk (or any plant-based milk)
- 1/3 cup (80 ml) coconut oil (melted)
- 1/2 cup (100 g) brown sugar
- 1/4 cup (50 g) granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 cups (250 g) all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup (170 g) vegan chocolate chips
Instructions
1. Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Mix Wet Ingredients
In a large bowl, whisk together the almond milk, melted coconut oil, brown sugar, granulated sugar, and vanilla extract until well combined.
3. Combine Dry Ingredients
In another bowl, sift together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined.
4. Fold in Chocolate Chips
Gently fold in the vegan chocolate chips until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
5. Scoop and Bake
Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop rounded balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between each cookie as they will spread while baking.
Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. The centers may look slightly underbaked; they will firm up as they cool.
6. Cool and Enjoy
Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Enjoy your delicious vegan chocolate chip cookies with a glass of plant-based milk or your favorite beverage!
Tips for Perfect Cookies
- Chill the Dough: For thicker cookies, chill the dough in the refrigerator for 30 minutes before baking.
- Add Nuts: For added texture, consider folding in chopped nuts like walnuts or pecans.
- Storage: Store leftover cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week or freeze them for longer storage.
These vegan chocolate chip cookies are not only easy to make but also incredibly satisfying! Whether you’re vegan or just looking to try something new, these cookies are sure to impress. Enjoy baking and sharing this beloved treat!
