Basic Vegan Spelt Cookies - Chocolate/Carob Chip image

I wanted to make some basic chocolate chip cookies for my kids (vegan & spelt) and found this recipe on http://www.vegfamily.com/vegan-recipes/desserts/spelt-carob-cookies.htm. It goes together really quickly and easily and only has 8 ingredients. I used a light spelt flour, which I think is most suitable for this recipe. They're a little cake-like, as with most vegan cookies...I prefer them this way. Note that the recipe only makes 12 cookies - you could make 24 small ones, but I like the larger size. Use carob or vegan chocolate chips, and I'm sure you could add some nuts and seeds if you choose. Hope you enjoy!

Yield 12 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 8

1/2 cup vegan margarine (ie Earth Balance)
3/4 cup organic sugar (or your prefered sugar...)
1 banana (or sub 1/4 cup liquid egg replacer)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 1/4 cups light spelt flour
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
1/2 cup semisweet vegan chocolate chips (or carob chips)

Steps:

  • Preheat your oven to 350 degrees and lightly oil a baking sheet.
  • In a large mixing bowl or your stand mixer, beat the margarine with the sugar, vanilla and banana (or egg replacer).
  • Blend in the flour about 1/4 cup at a time along with the baking powder and salt. Don't overmix, but make sure everything is nicely blended with no dry spots.
  • Lastly, fold in your chocolate or carob chips.
  • Drop by heaping teaspoon fulls onto your cookies sheet, making 12 large or 24 small cookies. Bake 10-14 minutes until done, which will depend on the size of your cookies.

These cookies were easy to make and turned out great! I used dark chocolate chips instead of carob chips, and they were still delicious.

I'm not a vegan, but I'm always looking for ways to reduce my meat consumption. These cookies were a great way to do that. They were so good, I didn't even miss the eggs or butter.

I'm allergic to nuts, so I used sunflower seed butter instead of almond butter. The cookies were still delicious, and I didn't miss the almond butter at all.

These cookies were a bit too dry for my taste. I think I would add an extra egg next time.

I'm not a fan of carob, so I used dark chocolate chips instead. The cookies were still delicious, but I think I would have preferred them with carob chips.

I was a bit skeptical about using spelt flour, but I'm glad I did. It gave the cookies a nice nutty flavor. I also liked the addition of carob chips. They added a unique flavor that I really enjoyed.
