HOW THE HECK DO I MAKE THOSE YUMMY VEGAN & GLUTEN FREE CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES???


Vegan & Gluten Free Chocolate Chip Cookies

Shhhhh…..no one will ever know!!!

By SmoothieDiva
 

·         1 ¼  cup Gluten Free Oat flour (I make mine in my Vitamix blender using Bob’s Red Mill Rolled Oats)

·         1 cup Quinoa Flour (I make mine in my Vitamix blender)

·         ½ cup flax meal

·         ½ cup hemp powder

·         Sometimes I also use coconut flour that I make from dried organic unsweetened coconut. You can    use this mixed with the quinoa flour or instead of the flax meal etc. as long as you have a total of 2 ¾ cups of flour.

·         1 tsp baking soda

·         1/2 tsp salt

·         2 tbl spoon ground chia seeds** and 6 tbl spoons water or 4-1/2 tsp powdered egg replacer mixed with 6 tbl spoons water (I prefer the ground chia seeds because it is a single ingredient)

·         1 cup Earth Balance organic buttery spread or organic coconut oil or organic vegetable shortening
 
·         3/4 cup raw granulated sugar

·         3/4 cup raw brown sugar

·         2 tsp vanilla extract

·         2 cups nondairy semi-sweet chocolate chips

When you choose margarine and the chocolate chips read the labels to ensure they do not contain dairy products.  I try to use as many organic ingredients as possible.
** You can purchase ground chia seeds or you can grind the seeds in a coffee grinder
Preheat Oven: 375°

Mix Ingredients:

  • In a medium bowl, combine the flour, baking soda, and salt, and whisk them until they're well-combined.
  • Mix the ground chia seed or the powdered egg replacer and the water together in a small bowl. Use a whisk or a fork to get it nicely blended and a little creamy and set aside for now.
  • In a large bowl, combine the margarine, sugar, and brown sugar. Beat them with a stand mixer or hand mixer until they're light and fluffy, about 2 minutes.
  • Scrape down the sides and bottom of the bowl, now add the egg replacer mixture and the vanilla extract to the bowl and beat it until it's combined.
  • After that is mixed in, stop the mixer and slowly add the flour mixture and beat it just until it's combined and begins to form into dough.
  • Add the chocolate chips and stir them in by hand, scraping the bottom and the sides of the bowl with a spatula to make sure everything's incorporated.
Form the Cookies and Bake

  • Use a cookie scoop, melon ball scoop, or roll in palms to form 1-inch balls of dough and place them on a parchment-lined or lightly oiled cookie sheet.
  • Bake the cookies at 375° for about 15 minutes, until they're puffed and golden brown around the edges.  Keep a close eye on the first batch as all ovens are different.  Bake less for softer cookies and longer for a crispy cookie texture. 
  • Remove them from the oven and let them cool for 2-3 minutes on the cookie sheet so they will not fall apart, then move them to a wire rack if you have one to cool completely.
