Description
Delicious and chewy vegan pumpkin chocolate chip cookies made with wholesome ingredients.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 1/2 cups Blanched Almond Flour
- 1 1/2 cups oats (or oat flour)
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice
- 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
- 3 tablespoons melted coconut oil
- 2/3 cup pumpkin puree
- 3/4 cup packed light brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 3/4 cup vegan chocolate chips (plus more for topping)
Instructions
- Add the oats to a food processor or blender and pulse a few times until it forms into a flour-like consistency. Measure again and make sure it yields 1 1/2 cups. If not, then add a little bit more oats to the food processor and pulse again to bring it to 1 1/2 cups of oat flour.
- Add the dry ingredients to a medium size mixing bowl and mix well to fully combine.
- In a separate medium size mixing bowl, combine the wet ingredients and mix well.
- Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix fully into a wet, chunky batter.
- Fold in the vegan chocolate chips. Cover and chill the dough for 10 minutes.
- While the dough is chilling, preheat the oven to 350F degrees and line a baking sheet or cookie sheet with a baking mat or parchment paper.
- Remove the dough from the refrigerator and use a medium size ice cream scoop, round tablespoon, or spoon to drop even amounts of the cookie dough onto the baking sheet. Make sure the cookies are 2 inches apart from one another.
- Place the cookies into the preheated oven on the middle rack and bake for 12-15 minutes until the edges are nice and golden brown.
- Remove, and press a few more vegan chocolate chips into the top of each cookie with a light sprinkle of sea salt to give them that bakery-style look.
- Let the cookies cool on the pan for at least 5 minutes, then carefully transfer them to a cooling rack and let them cool for 10 more minutes until you dig in.
Notes
- Oats can be replaced with pre-made oat flour if desired.
- Ensure to pulse oats enough for desired consistency.
