(Gluten-Free, Dairy-Free, Vegan, Low-Sugar)
There is nothing better than a soft baked chocolate chip cookie. We’ve made so many different types of cookies over the years. Our Gluten-Free Peanut Butter Cookies are one of those recipes we make often, along with these vegan chocolate chip cookies.
best things about these vegan chocolate chip cookies?
- Gluten free – You can use normal flour if you desire but in our household gluten-free it is and we link to our favorite gluten-free flour.
- Refined sugar-free
- No oil or Butter added
- This all means I get to eat more cookies!
I’ve also have gotten in the habit of just eating this dough raw which has turned into our healthy cookie dough recipe. There is no eggs in batter making this 100% vegan and cookie dough eating approved.
What type of chocolate to use in our Vegan Chocolate Chip Cookies
There fortunately are quite a few brands out there that have gluten-free and vegan chocolate. It is important that you take a look at the labels though as some are not gluten-free and/or vegan.

- 7. They were not spread out during being baked so make sure you have them looking the way you want them to look. I personally like to flatten them and make them more of a circle cookie.

These look amazing! I’d love to try them. Thank you for sharing ! Does it work to double or triple the recipe? An also can I substitute e.g. the peanut butter for cashew butter or something else?
Thanks again,
Miriam Lenefsky
I’ve doubled the recipe and have had no problems at all. Cashew butter is also a fabulous alternative. You want the nut butter to be the same consistency at the general peanut butter. All-natural peanut butter or almond butter with extra oil in it for example is what I wouldn’t recommend when it comes to this recipe.
can i swap out the agave nectar for maple syrup?
Yes!
Do these cookies turn out more cakey or chewy?
mine were cakey and chewy but i loved that about them-these were quick and delish!
