Get the Recipe: Applesauce Chocolate Chip Cookies
Report
These applesauce chocolate chip cookies are gooey, buttery and so delicious! They are completely egg free. The applesauce provides a nice natural sweetness to these cookies. The chocolate chunks add so much melted chocolate!

Ingredients
- ½ cup cold unsalted butter
- ¼ cup granulated sugar
- ½ cup light brown sugar tightly packed
- ¼ cup unsweetened applesauce
- ½ tsp vanilla extract
- 1 ¾ cups flour all purpose or gluten free flour
- ½ tsp baking soda
- pinch sea salt optional
- 1 cup chocolate chunks or chocolate chips
Instructions
- First, preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a baking pan with parchment paper.
- In the bowl of a stand mixer, add cold butter, sugar and brown sugar. Mix for 2 to 3 minutes, until no clumps of butter remain.
- Then, add in applesauce and vanilla. Stir to combine.
- Add in flour, baking soda and sea salt. Stir to combine.
- Fold in chocolate chunks.
- Use an ice cream scooper to scoop balls of dough onto lined pan. Space at least 3 inches apart to allow room for spreading.
- Bake for 9 to 10 minutes or until cookies are barely golden along the edges. They will look soft and gooey in the middle.
- Lastly, remove from oven. Allow cookies to cool on pan for 5 to 7 minutes. Then, carefully transfer to a cooling rack.
Notes
- These cookies are pretty large and spread significantly.
- Use cold butter from the fridge. Do not use softened or melted butter.
- Both regular all purpose flour and gluten free 1 to 1 flour can be used. I do not recommend another flour.
- Chocolate chunks create pools of melted chocolate. Feel free to use regular chocolate chips if desired.
- These cookies will look gooey in the middle. Allow them to cool before transferring to a wire rack.
- Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
- Freeze for up to 1 month.
