Ingredients
- 2.5 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.75 cups Vegan butter (softened)
- 1 cup Brown sugar (packed)
- 0.25 cup Granulated sugar
- 0.5 cups Unsweetened applesauce
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 1.5 cups Vegan chocolate chips (nut-free)
- 1 tablespoon Dairy-free milk (optional, for consistency)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
Step 2
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
Step 3
In a large mixing bowl, use a hand or stand mixer to cream together the softened vegan butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until fluffy and well combined (about 1-2 minutes).
Step 4
Add the unsweetened applesauce and vanilla extract to the creamed mixture. Mix until smooth and fully incorporated.
Step 5
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing just until combined. If the dough feels too stiff to mix, you can add up to 1 tablespoon of dairy-free milk for consistency.
Step 6
Fold in the nut-free vegan chocolate chips evenly using a spatula or wooden spoon.
Step 7
Scoop dough into tablespoon-sized balls and place them a few inches apart on the prepared baking sheets. Optional: Flatten slightly with the palm of your hand for a more even shape.
Step 8
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. The centers may look slightly underbaked but will set as the cookies cool.
Step 9
Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 10
Enjoy your nut-free vegan chocolate chip cookies with a glass of plant-based milk or as a standalone treat!
