Instructions

  1. First, preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a baking pan with parchment paper.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, add melted coconut oil, brown sugar and white sugar. Stir to combine.
  3. Add vanilla extract and applesauce to the mixing bowl. Stir until combined.
  4. Next, add in flour, peanut butter, baking soda and sea salt. Stir until combined.
  5. Fold in chocolate chips.
  6. Use an ice cream scooper to scoop balls of dough onto lined pan. Space about 2 inches apart.
  7. Bake for 9 to 10 minutes or until cookies look just barely set in the middle.
  8. Remove pan from oven. If desired, lightly tap pan on countertop to help cookies spread slightly.
  9. Finally, allow cookies to cool on pan for 10 minutes. Then, carefully transfer to a wire rack.

Notes

  • Melt coconut oil before gathering other ingredients.  This helps the coconut oil cool down before mixing with the other ingredients.
  • Instead of eggs, this recipe uses applesauce.  I highly recommend using this instead of flax eggs or chia eggs.
  • All purpose flour and gluten free 1 to 1 flour both work well.
  • Use all natural creamy peanut butter made from only peanuts and salt.
  • The cookies will appear doughy and underdone at first.  They will slightly firm up as they cool.
  • Store cookies at room temperature for up to 4 days.
  • These cookies freeze well!
