Chewy VEGAN Pumpkin Spice Choc Chip Cookies

I got your mid-week blues covered with these easy vegan cookies! All the chocolate & spice goodness baked into a soft, chewy cookie.

These cookies are the definition of recipe testing. Initially, I was going to make them with egg and milk containing chocolate chips (white chocolate, yum). Then I felt bad and wanted to make sure everyone could enjoy these so I went vegan. Really it’s an easy fix just swap the egg for a flax egg. SO back to the recipe, I added coconut flour. Ugh, MISTAKE!! I need to investigate baking with coconut flour more because every time I add it to my desserts I end up with sand (great flavor, horrible texture).

Anyway! After running out of almost every ingredient (thankful because I had to add oat flour). I ended up with these perfect warm, chewy cookies!

Instructions

1. Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees.
2. Make flax egg – combine 1 tablespoon of ground flax with 3 tablespoons of water, mix and set aside.
3. Sift almond flour and oat flour, add baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Combine dry ingredients.
4. Combine pumpkin puree, coconut sugar, maple syrup, almond butter, vanilla extract, coconut oil, add flax mixture and mix until all items are creamed together. Mix cinnamon and pumpkin spice into the wet mixture.
5. Add dry ingredients (flour mixture) to the wet mixture and start combining. *Mix will look dry but no additional liquid is required! This is a sticky dough, don’t give up, keep mixing.
6. Fold chocolate chips into the dough.
7. Use an ice cream scooper to scoop cookie dough (approximately 2 tbsps) onto a silicone sheet or parchment paper and flatten dough balls.
8. Bake for 17 minutes, remove from oven and let fully cool (about 10 minutes). *Warning cookies will fall apart if handled hot.
9. Dunk these cookies in a cold glass of almond milk! YUM!

Notes

To make oat flour, blend rolled outs and then measure out quantity. If you don’t have oats you can do 1.5 cups almond flour instead of just 1 cup almond flour.

Let cookies cool! Mixture is very sticky, use a scooper if you use hands, you will end up with half the dough on your hands.
