Ingredients
Scale
Wet Ingredients
- 2 tbsp unsweetened apple sauce
- 1/2 tbsp coconut sugar
- 1/8 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 tbsp tahini paste
Dry Ingredients
- 4 tbsp almond flour
- 1/4 tsp baking powder
- 1 pinch salt
- 1 tbsp chocolate chips (divided)
Instructions
- Combine wet ingredients: In a microwave-safe mug, add the unsweetened apple sauce, coconut sugar, vanilla extract, and tahini paste. Stir thoroughly until all the wet ingredients are well blended.
- Add dry ingredients: To the mug, add almond flour, baking powder, salt, and half (1/2 tablespoon) of the chocolate chips. Stir again until the mixture is evenly combined and forms a consistent dough.
- Microwave cook: Place the mug in the microwave and cook on high power for 60 seconds. The mixture will firm up into a soft cookie texture.
- Garnish and cool: Remove the mug from the microwave and sprinkle the remaining chocolate chips on top to melt slightly. Let it cool for 1-2 minutes before enjoying your warm, vegan chocolate chip mug cookie.
Notes
- Use a microwave-safe mug to avoid any accidents during cooking.
- Almond flour can be substituted with another nut flour if preferred, but texture may vary slightly.
- If you want a sweeter cookie, increase the coconut sugar slightly.
- For a nut-free version, consider using oat flour and sunflower seed butter instead of almond flour and tahini.
- Monitoring microwave times is important as cooking power varies—start with 60 seconds and adjust if needed.
