Gluten free Vegan Chocolate Chip Cookies
Description
The recipe combines wet ingredients including almond butter, almond milk, neutral oil, raw sugar, flaxseed meal, salt, and vanilla extract. Dry ingredients feature oat, almond, and buckwheat flours, starch, baking soda and powder, and cinnamon. After mixing, the dry ingredients are folded into the wet to form a soft, sticky dough, with vegan chocolate chips stirred in. Chilling the dough slightly helps with shaping and texture.
Baked on parchment-lined sheets, the cookies bake for 13 to 14 minutes at a moderate temperature until edges lighten to golden. Cookies emerge soft but firm up as they cool. This produces vegan, gluten-free cookies with a soft crumb and pockets of melted chocolate, suitable for those avoiding gluten and animal products.
