Gluten Free Vegan Chocolate Brownie Cookies
Soft and delicious gluten free and vegan chocolate brownie cookies.
Servings: 14
Ingredients
- 1 tbsp ground flax
- 3 tbsp water
- 3/4 cup gluten free baking flour
- 1/4 cup Saco Pantry Organic Cocoa Powder
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1/8 tsp salt
- 5 tbsp vegan butter soft
- 1/3 cup brown sugar packed
- 1/3 cup granulated white sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- flakey sea salt for topping
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 F and prepare a baking sheet with parchment paper. In a small bowl, stir together the flax and water until combined and then set it aside for 5-10 minutes to gel. In a bowl, stir together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda and salt.
- In another bowl, use a hand held mixer to beat the vegan butter, brown sugar and cane sugar together until well blended. Add in the vanilla and mix until combined. Finally add in the flax mixture and continue mixing until well blended.
- Add the dry ingredients to the wet and mix until no dry spots remain. The batter will be on the wet side and that's ok. Use a 1 1/2 inch cookie scooper to make the cookie dough balls and place them on the baking sheet about 2 inches apart. Bake the cookies for 10-12 minutes. The cookies should look slightly undone when you take them out of the oven but they will continue to cook and firm up as they cool.
- Let the cookies cool for 5 minutes on the baking sheet before transferring them to a wire rack to continue cooling for 10-15 mintues before sprinkling with sea salt and serving.
