Hi Love! Do you love cookies like me? I love them so much! I don’t eat them every day, but when I do, I sure do love them. In fact, I love them more than ice cream or any kind of cake or candy. I love cookie texture and how you can break them apart into pieces. And of all the cookies I love most in the world, chocolate chip ones are my fav!
Cookie-making has become a real fav with my kids as well. The little one mixes, the bigger one measures and pours. All of this is all great…so long as it’s easy! For me, cookie recipes (and all others, really!) have to be simple, not take too much time, and be as healthy and whole-food based as possible. I’ve seen cookie recipes where you freeze the dough for a few hours. I’m sure that makes a more perfect texture, but I’m not trying to be a pro baker! (though I’ve seen that British Baking Show a few times- and wow, respect for those bakers). I want easy and yummy.
If these things are important to you too, you are in for a great recipe! This is so simple and easy. As simple as I could make- and there’s no hard to find egg replacers or mixing too many ingredients. And you can dress it up with green and red vegan sprinkles for the holidays, if you would like to.
Why Opt For The Vegan Option?
When it comes to chocolate chip cookies, going vegan is the way to add a healthy twist and bring some guilt-free goodness into your life! Think about it – by opting for wholesome ingredients like oat or almond flour, maple syrup, and coconut oil, you’re not only taking care of your bod but also the planet. It’s a win-win situation!
So, why should you choose the vegan option? Well, let’s spill the tea on these incredible ingredients. First up, we’ve got oat flour. It’s packed with fiber to keep your digestion on point and keep you feeling fuller for longer. No more feeling like a bottomless cookie monster!
Now, almond flour is where the protein party’s at. It’s full of those good-for-you fats that make your taste buds dance with joy. This means you can enjoy these cookies guilt-free and still get that protein boost.
Maple syrup adds sweetness to your cookies without causing nasty blood sugar spikes. Plus, it’s loaded with antioxidants and minerals that make your body feel fabulous.
And coconut oil is a game-changer! Not only does it lend a tropical twist to your cookies, but it’s also full of medium-chain triglycerides that give you an instant energy boost!
Now, I know what you’re thinking – does going vegan mean sacrificing taste? Absolutely not! In fact, these whole-food, plant-based ingredients take your cookies to a whole new level of yum. The nutty goodness of oat or almond flour combined with the sweetness of maple syrup creates a flavor explosion in every bite. And let’s not forget that scrumptious hint of coconut oil.
