Ingredients
  • 1 cup unbleached all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1⁄2 tsp baking soda
  • 1⁄4 cup unrefined sugar
  • 1⁄4 tsp sea salt
  • 1⁄3 cup pure maple syrup
  • 1⁄4 tsp blackstrap molasses
  • 1 - 1 1⁄2 tsp pure vanilla extract
  • 1⁄4 cup organic canola oil (a little generous 1/4 cup)
  • 1⁄3 cup non-dairy chocolate chips

Directions
  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (176°C).
  2. In a bowl, sift in the flour, baking powder, and baking soda.
  3. Add the sugar and salt, and stir until well combined.
  4. In a separate bowl, combine the maple syrup with the molasses and vanilla, then stir in the oil until well combined.
  5. Add the wet mixture to the dry, along with the chocolate chips, and stir through until just well combined (do not overmix).
  6. Place large spoonfuls of the batter on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and flatten a little.
  7. Bake for 11 minutes, until just golden (if you bake for much longer, they will dry out).
  8. Let cool on the sheet for no more than 1 minute (again, to prevent drying), then transfer to a cooling rack.
  9. Makes 8-10 large cookies.

They look out of this world!!!

I tried these a couple of days ago and am hooked. I've made them three times already. They are the BEST cookies. Even for non-vegans out there- they are well worth a try, I think they're better than tollhouse. I use kosher salt so I upped it to 3/4 tsp....otherwise these rock!!


Glad to hear it. If you've never checked out any of Dreena burton's books or blogs, you definitely need to. Some of the best recipes ever :)


Thanks for the guilty pleasure.
I accidentally skipped the canola oil and only had cane sugar for the unrefined sugar. They seemed really dark-sweet. I used white chocolate chips instead, couldn't taste them. Batter was dry so I added a little water. they were kinda flat, chewy on the outside and soft on the inside. Made 7.


These are REALLY good. For years I have been looking for mainly eggless recipes (am vegetarian) but now am open to vegan. I did, however, use regular semi-sweet chocolate chips -- I came across this recipe late (10 pm) and did go to my local grocery store to get molasses, etc but did not find vegan chocolate chips there. Once suggestion, I would put a little less sugar and more chocolate chips! And add some nuts -- pecans preferably!
