VEGAN GLUTEN-FREE CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
• Beat coconut oil, brown sugar, and white sugar until creamy and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add applesauce and vanilla extract; mix well. Add flour, baking soda, and salt; mix until well combined. Fold in chocolate chips.
• Drop spoonfuls of dough 2 inches apart onto the prepared baking sheets.
• Bake in the preheated oven until bottoms are brown and tops look a little undercooked, 8 to 10 minutes. Cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before removing to a wire rack to cool completely, about 10 minutes more.

GLUTEN-FREE CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 350 degrees. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
• In a medium bowl, whisk the almond flour, salt and baking soda to combine.
• Using a mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream the butter, brown sugar and granulated sugar on medium speed until very light, 3 to 4 minutes.
• Add the egg and mix on medium speed to combine. Scrape the bowl well, then add the vanilla and mix to combine.
• Add the dry ingredients and mix on low speed until just combined, about 10 seconds. Scrape the bowl well and mix on low speed to ensure the mixture is homogenous.
• Add the chocolate and gently mix to incorporate it. Scoop the dough into 10 3 1/2 ounce/100-gram mounds of dough the size of generous golf balls, and transfer them to the prepared baking sheets. Stagger the rows to allow the cookies room to spread.
• Gently press the cookies down slightly with your fingers until about 1 1/2 inches thick. Sprinkle lightly with sea salt, if using. Bake the cookies, switching racks and rotating the sheets halfway through, until they're golden brown around the edges and just barely set in the center, 18 to 22 minutes. Transfer sheets to a wire rack for 10 minutes, then transfer cookies with a spatula onto another rack to cool a bit more.
