Chocolate Chip Cookies are quite a nostalgic treat for me. To be honest, during college chocolate chip cookies are what helped me get through my undergraduate days.
Since being in quarantine I have had to make many adjustments to my daily diet after learning that my food intolerances were much more impactful to my life than I thought.
Because I have intolerance to about 6 out of the top 8 allergies I have had to consider more vegan and plant based meals, however, your girl still eats meats… Hence the “dichotomy of inspiration”.
Today I am going to share with you my vegan version of this classic cookie.
Let’s Get Started!
One things that is great is this recipe has only 9 ingredients… often times vegan desserts can have a multitude of ingredients that you haven’t even heard of.
“Ain’t nobody got time for dat!”
First, you want to begin by mixing your wet ingredients. Start with your melted vegan butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar.
Once mixed incorporate Homemade Applesauce, vanilla, and oat milk
Next, you want to incorporate your dry ingredients.
In a separate bowl combine your flour, baking soda, and sea salt. After combined you can gradually mix in your dry ingredients into your wet mixture.
Now you will start to see a dough like mixture however we can’t forget the star of the show… Vegan Chocolate!
Now it is time to incorporate the star of the show into our dough.
Once dough is fully combined cover bowl with plastic wrap and let refrigerate for 30-45mins
After refrigerated, with a cookie scoop, scoop and place dough onto pan and let cookies bake for 10-12mins at 350 degrees.
Allow cookies to cool for 3-5min and serve with your favorite dairy free milk! Enjoy!
