Deliciously chewy vegan chocolate chip cookies made with almond butter and coconut oil for a moist, plant-based treat that’s perfect for any occasion.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 ¾ cups (220g) all-purpose flour (unbleached preferred)
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ½ cup (100g) coconut sugar (can substitute with light brown sugar)
  • ¼ cup (50g) brown sugar, packed
  • ½ cup (120g) almond butter, smooth
  • ¼ cup (60ml) coconut oil, melted (refined for neutral flavor)
  • ¼ cup (60ml) unsweetened almond milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon vinegar (apple cider or white)
  • 1 cup (180g) vegan chocolate chips (e.g., Enjoy Life brand)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
  3. In another bowl, beat the coconut sugar, brown sugar, and almond butter until creamy and smooth (2-3 minutes with an electric mixer or longer by hand).
  4. Stir in the melted coconut oil, almond milk, vanilla extract, and vinegar to the almond butter mixture.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Do not overmix.
  6. Fold in the vegan chocolate chips, reserving a few to press on top of the dough balls.
  7. Drop dough balls onto the prepared baking sheet about 2 inches apart using a tablespoon or cookie scoop. Press extra chocolate chips on top.
  8. Bake for 10-12 minutes until edges are golden but centers are slightly soft.
  9. Let cookies rest on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a cooling rack to set and keep chewy.

Notes

Use room temperature almond butter and coconut oil for smooth blending. Chill dough for 15-20 minutes if cookies spread too much. Use quality vegan chocolate chips for best melting. Do not overbake to maintain chewiness.
