Ingredients
Scale
Cookie Dough
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- ½ cup neutral oil
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ½ cup water
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 2 teaspoons cinnamon
- 1 cup semi-sweet vegan chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) to ensure it’s at the perfect temperature for baking the cookies evenly.
- Mix Wet Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the granulated sugar, neutral oil, and vanilla extract. Stir in the water until everything is well combined and smooth.
- Add Dry Ingredients: To the wet mixture, add the all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon. Mix until a smooth dough forms without any lumps.
- Fold in Chocolate Chips: Gently fold the semi-sweet vegan chocolate chips into the dough, distributing them evenly throughout.
- Shape Cookies: Using a tablespoon, scoop rounded mounds of dough and place them on a lightly greased or parchment-lined baking sheet. Make sure to leave enough space between each cookie to allow for spreading.
- Bake: Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 10–12 minutes or until the edges turn lightly golden. Avoid overbaking to keep the cookies soft.
- Cool: Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack. Allow them to cool completely before serving or storing.
Notes
- For the softest cookies, do not overbake; they continue to firm up as they cool.
- Use parchment paper or a silicone baking mat for easiest cleanup and to prevent sticking.
- These cookies are vegan, making them suitable for dairy-free diets.
- Store cooled cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
- Try adding nuts or dried fruit for additional texture and flavor variations.
