Pistachio Chocolate Chip Cookies (Vegan & Gluten-Free)
These vegan and gluten-free Pistachio Chocolate Chip Cookies are the best you'll ever eat! Made in one bowl with healthier ingredients, they are perfectly soft, slightly crispy, and packed with rich pistachio and chocolate flavors.
Ingredients
wet ingredients
- ½ cup coconut sugar
- ¼ cup vegan butter, slightly melted, see note
- 1 tablespoon ground flaxseed
- 3 tablespoons water
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Dry Ingredients
- 1 cup almond flour, blanched
- 1 cup oat flour
- ½ teaspoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ⅓ cup vegan chocolate chips
- ¼ cup chopped pistachios
- 10 tsp pistachio butter, 1 tsp for each cookie
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Make the flax egg by whisking together the flaxseed and water in a large bowl. Let it gel for 5 minutes.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the coconut sugar, softened vegan butter, flax egg, and vanilla extract until combined.
- Fold in the almond flour, oat flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, vegan chocolate chips, and chopped pistachios. Mix until a dough forms.
- Use a cookie scoop to scoop tablespoon-sized amounts of the dough onto the prepared baking sheet. Flatten the ball of cookie dough in your hand and add 1 teaspoon of pistachio butter in the center before rolling it back up. Place each cookie on the baking sheet with space between them.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes (13 minutes is usually perfect for me).
- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes to set properly, then transfer to a wire rack to cool for an additional 5 minutes.
- Serve with a sprinkle of flaky sea salt. Enjoy!
Notes
- I usually pop my butter from the fridge straight into the microwave for 5-10 seconds so it’s starting to melt, but not boiling hot. This will help the cookies spread and maintain their fluffy texture!
- If the cookie dough is sticky when filling it with pistachio butter, wet your hands a bit with water.
