These Classic Chocolate Chip Cookies are Vegan and Gluten Free, soft a taste of vanilla and chocolate chunks! Super easy to make only 8 ingredients needed!
“stop thinking about what you want to do and JUST DO IT, JUST START! Thinking isn’t getting you anywhere!”
I felt like some good ol’ chocolate chip cookies, the classic soft kind that has a hint of vanilla taste to it with big chocolate chunks! Sounds tasty right?! I hope you said yes because that’s what I’m showing you today!
There are a few big differences between these Classic Chocolate Chip Cookies and the average ones you buy at the bakery, these ones are Vegan (OBVS) 😉 gluten free, soy free and mostly refined sugar free depending on how you classify chocolate chips??? HA! The cookie itself is sweetened with maple syrup so if you want to keep this completely refined sugar free you could swap the chocolate chips for some kind of nut if you would like!
Next I want to take a second to talk about the flour, I used the Bob’s Red Mill all-purpose baking flour in the RED package (NOT the 1 for 1 all-purpose baking flour in the blue package) they are completely different so make sure you are using the right kind!
Ok, so these cookies could not be any easier to make everything goes in one bowl! It gets all mixed up and it forms a classic looking cookie dough, not too sticky not too runny just a perfect cookie dough!
Be sure to line a baking sheet with parchment paper it makes a world of difference when you go to remove them! Also when they are done baking let them cool for about 15 minutes, they need to rest when they get out of the oven otherwise they are fragile. Once they are cooled off though they are totally normal cookies not fragile fall apart ones, just your average chocolate chip cookie with a healthy makeover!
I really hope you enjoy these Classic Chocolate Chip Cookies they are:

Slightly tasted of vanilla with big chocolate chunks!
Easy
Healthier
Mostly naturally sweetened 😉
