Ingredients
Ready to bake? Let's do it. Here are the major ingredients you will need:
- Brown rice flour: Slightly sweet and nutty, this flour blends well with the wheat-like oat flour.
- Oat flour: This gluten-free flour adds a wheat-like flavor and texture. You can also make your own oat flour!
- Tapioca starch: This starch does double duty. It helps bind the ingredients together acting as an egg substitute and gluten substitute.
- Organic cane sugar: Less processed than other sugars and suitable for vegans.
- Coconut sugar: In addition to organic cane sugar, this recipe is made with coconut sugar and without brown sugar. Coconut sugar is lower glycemic and adds a similar flavor profile to brown sugar.
- Vegan butter: An easy dairy-free alternative to cow's milk butter.
- Unsweetened almond milk: Adds moisture and flavor!
- Vanilla extract: A pure vanilla extract is the way to go. It's rich vanilla flavor helps round out that classic chocolate chip cookie taste.
- Dairy-free chocolate chips or morsels: Get those melted chocolate puddles in every bite!

- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrentheit. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

- Fold in the chocolate chips and transfer bowl to refrigerator to chill for 30 minutes.
- Use a tablespoon or similar-sized scoop and drop cookie dough into even rows on cookie sheet about 2 inches apart.

Thank you, Ali! So glad you enjoyed them!
Alene
I can't eat rice. Is there something that could replace the 1/2 cup brown rice flour? Thank you.
Tessa
Hi Alene! I have not tested this recipe without the brown rice flour, so I don't know exactly what the result would be. I think that oat flour, sorgham flour, or almond flour would probably be the best substitute by weight. Although this will change the texture of the cookie. I do have other chocolate chip cookie recipes on my site that don't use brown rice flour. Thank you!
