Serves: 10 servings
Ingredients
- 1 cup almond flour
- 1/2 cup peanut butter
- 1/4 cup maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 cup dark chocolate chips
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the almond flour and salt, whisking together to remove any lumps and ensure even distribution.
- Add the peanut butter to the almond flour mixture, using a spatula or wooden spoon to blend until the ingredients start to form a crumbly texture.
- Pour in the maple syrup and vanilla extract, continuing to mix until the ingredients form a cohesive, smooth dough-like consistency.
- Gently fold in the dark chocolate chips, distributing them evenly throughout the dough using a folding motion to prevent breaking the chips.
- If the dough feels too sticky, refrigerate for 10-15 minutes to help it firm up slightly.
- Using clean hands or a cookie scoop, form the dough into small balls or rounded tablespoon-sized portions.
- Place the formed cookie dough balls on a parchment-lined plate or baking sheet.
- For best texture, chill the cookie dough in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving.
- Store the raw vegan cookie dough in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
- Serve chilled and enjoy directly as a no-bake treat or use as a topping for smoothie bowls or vegan ice cream.
Tips
- Use room temperature ingredients for the smoothest texture possible.
- Choose high-quality almond flour for the best consistency and flavor.
- If your dough seems too dry, add a tiny bit more maple syrup to bind it together.
- For extra indulgence, use dark chocolate chips with at least 70% cocoa content.
- Chill the dough thoroughly to enhance the flavor and achieve the perfect texture.
- Always use fresh ingredients and store in an airtight container to maintain freshness.
- For a protein boost, consider adding a tablespoon of plant-based protein powder.
- Experiment with different nut butters like cashew or almond for unique flavor variations.
