Vegan cookie dough is creamy, thick and sweet just like regular cookie dough. This cookie dough is edible, gluten-free, dairy-free and Paleo too!
Vegan cookie dough without coconut oil (oil-free) is my favorite, but most amazing is the main ingredient is a vegetable! Kid-friendly and sure to become your favorite snack!
How To Make Vegan Cookie Dough:
- Gather the ingredients, one of which is a cooked Japanese sweet potato (purple exterior, white interior, see tips below).
2. Add all ingredients into a small food processor except the chocolate chips.
3. Blend the ingredients until smooth and creamy. This will take about a minute or two.
4. Add the coconut flour to the food processor and blend. Or scoop the dough into a bowl and add the coconut flour and chocolate chips and mix well.
5. Stir and mix until fully combined. Add enough coconut flour if the dough is too sticky.
Can I Bake This Healthy Cookie Dough?
- Yes! The short answer - I simply add a teaspoon of baking soda to the dough, and make "blondies" by forming a square shape on a parchment lined baking sheet and bake for 25-30 minutes at 350 degrees F. (Hope to have a detailed post soon). Tip: I usually leave out the coconut flour if I intend to bake this and make blondies or cookies.
How Long Does Vegan Cookie Dough Last?
- Well, in my house a day or two, but should last up to a week stored in the refrigerator.
Vegan Cookie Dough For One:
- Simply cut the recipe in half!
Can You Freeze Vegan Cookie Dough?
- Yes! Place in the fridge to let it thaw. You can freeze the cookie dough balls also!
Variations On This Healthy Cookie Dough Recipe:
- Add 2 tablespoons of raw organic cacao powder for chocolate vegan cookie dough!
- Vegan Brownie Recipe (Vegan cookie dough recipe is based on this brownie recipe).
- Vegan cookie dough balls (see below).
- Chocolate dipped vegan cookie dough balls. (see below).
Pro Tips:
- For best results use a Japanese sweet potato (purple exterior, white interior) for its mild taste. You can use any sweet potato, but it will have a stronger flavor.
- Bake or microwave the Japanese sweet potato to fully cook. You are using the white flesh. (99% of the time I microwave my sweet potato for this recipe).
- Use store-bought creamy almond butter or make homemade almond butter.
- Substitute cashew butter if almond butter is not available.
Vegan Cookie Dough Balls:
- Super easy! Just take tablespoon portions of the dough and roll into balls. Yum!
- Chocolate dipped vegan cookie dough balls - melt some dairy-free, vegan chocolate and dip the balls. Place on a parchment lined baking sheet and freeze or refrigerate for at least an hour. So good!!
