Taste and Occasion
The vegan cookies with chocolate are so soft that they melt in your mouth. The brown sugar also gives them a slight caramel taste.
You cannot really say that this recipe for vegan chocolate chip cookies is healthy in the strict sense. But it is soooo good - and much more than a boring alternative for allergy sufferers or vegans.
Even if you are a vegetarian like us, you should definitely try this recipe.
Ingredients
In many normal cookies, there are often many butter, eggs, and dairy products, such as sweetened condensed milk. All ingredients that vegan cookies have to do without.
So I followed the tips from my ingredient swap to make the chewy chocolate chip cookies vegan. In this case, it's actually pretty easy. You don't need any unique ingredients like chia seeds, soy flour or egg substitute powder.
The cookies without egg, butter and milk consist only of foods you actually have at home anyway. At least as a passionate baker 😉 . In addition to flour, white and brown sugar, baking soda and Co are vegetable fat, apple or banana puree and a vegan milk alternative such as oat or soy milk. Dark chocolate drops are almost always vegan anyway.
How to make the Vegan Chocolate Chip Cookies
Let's get started! Beat the soft fat with the two sugars until fluffy. Then, add fruit puree and vegan milk. Stir in all dry ingredients except the chocolate drops briefly but vigorously.
Now, set aside about two tablespoons of the chocolate chips and fold the rest into the dough. Refrigerate the dough wrapped in plastic wrap for about 15 minutes.
It's time to preheat the oven to 320°F/160°C convection. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper and form about 18 balls from the dough.
After that is done, place them on the baking sheets, spacing them apart, and sprinkle with the remaining dark chocolate drops.
Finally, flatten the dough balls very slightly and bake the vegan chocolate chip cookies for about 12 minutes. In the end, they should still be soft.
Top Tip
If you want to bake the vegan chocolate chip cookies without margarine, you can also use coconut butter. Please note that cookies made with coconut oil require a smaller amount of fat.
