matcha mint chocolate chip cookies (vegan)
These matcha mint chocolate chip cookies are a delicious vegan cookie recipe.
Ingredients
Wet
- 1 flax egg (1 tablespoon ground flax + 2.5 tablespoon water) or sub 1 real egg
- ¼ cup maple syrup
- ¼ cup coconut sugar
- ½ cup almond butter or cashew butter or sub other nut butter
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- ½ teaspoon mint extract you can sub additional vanilla
- 1 tablespoon melted coconut oil omit if using a real egg
Dry
- ½ cup oat flour
- ¼ cup almond flour
- 1 tablespoon matcha powder
- ½ teaspoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ¾-1 cup chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Make your flax egg by combining water and flax. Let set in the refrigerator for 10-30 minutes. Skip if using a real egg.
- In a bowl mix together wet ingredients including your flax egg (if using). Pour in dry ingredients except for chocolate chips and mix to combine. Lastly fold in chocolate chips.
- Using an ice cream scoop or a small handful (about 2 tablespoons) of dough evenly distribute dough onto a parchment lined baking sheet*. You will have little blobs of dough, not mounds like regular cookies**. You should have 6-8 evenly sized cookies. Bake cookies for 10-12 minutes.
- Let cookies cool for at least 10 minutes and then enjoy!
Notes
This makes 6-8 cookies.
*I have tested this recipe on both parchment paper and silicone and it comes out much better on parchment paper.
**Please note that as this dough is gluten and dairy free it is not like regular cookie dough. The batter is very sticky. If you aren't using an ice cream scoop I recommend using wet hands and working quickly.
