SunButter Cookies
Description
Using natural SunButter as a base, the cookie dough blends coconut sugar and oat flour to create a structured yet moist cookie. The addition of baking soda and sea salt balances the sweetness, while vanilla extract adds depth of flavor. Stirred in chocolate chips provide bursts of melted chocolate within the cookies. The dough forms into thick balls that are gently pressed before baking at 375°F to achieve edges that are lightly browned but a soft center. After baking, letting cookies cool slightly on the baking sheet helps them firm up before transferring to a wire rack.
These cookies offer a nut-free alternative with SunButter and can be customized further with gluten-free oat flour if needed. Their flavor profile and texture make them appealing as snacks or dessert treats at home. Using natural ingredients like coconut sugar keeps the cookie mildly sweet while maintaining moisture.
The recipe notes suggest substituting coconut sugar with light brown or cane sugar and mention Enjoy Life or Lily's chocolate chips as allergen-friendly options, offering flexibility for dietary preferences. Maple syrup may also be used as a liquid sweetener substitute, though it has not been tested here.
