Healthy Vegan Cookie Dough

Healthy Vegan Cookie Dough | Well and Full | #raw #vegan #recipe

This Healthy Vegan Cookie Dough is the perfect sweet treat! And no worries about consuming raw ingredients here – this is made with 100% plant-based foods!

Hello, everyone! I am so so SO excited to share this recipe with you today, because it’s probably one of my most favorite things I’ve ever made. Inspired by rockstar instagrammers such as Rawlishious and Blendlove, makers of insanely dreamy vegan treats, I set out to make a treat that was like biting into a raw chunk of cookie dough! And I did!!

To be honest, I felt really accomplished after making these healthy vegan cookie dough slices, because I am not the most confident maker of sweet treats. My baking skills are sub-par at best; I hate that you can’t tweak ratios and ingredients in baking recipes like you can in their savory counterparts. Everything has to be so. exact. And there’s nothing wrong with that per se, but I’d consider myself to be a “free spirit” in the kitchen (i.e. a pinch of this, a pinch of that), unhindered by exacting measurements. (I wonder what that says about my personality?) But that’s where raw vegan desserts come in. There’s no baking (only dehydrating, if anything), and you have a lot of leeway when it comes to measurements. Add half a chocolate bar or a whole one, it won’t make a difference. (But obviously you’d want the whole chocolate bar!)

The point is, this healthy vegan cookie dough is a very forgiving recipe. But most importantly, it’s insanely delicious. I taste-tested them on three non-vegan dudes, who all LOVED  them. I brought up my plate full of raw cookie dough to my friend’s apartment, and by the time I had to go, there was only one left! Ohhh boys.

This healthy vegan cookie dough is decadent, delicious, and nutritious! It’s almost too good to be true.
Prep Time 15 minutes
Cook Time 1 hour
Total Time 1 hour 15 minutes

Ingredients

Wet Ingredients

  • 2 Tbs Coconut Oil melted
  • 1/3 Cup Raw Coconut Butter
  • 1/4 Cup Almond Butter
  • 1/3 Cup Agave Nectar or Maple Syrup
  • 1 Tsp Vanilla Extract
  • 2 Tbs Almond Milk

Dry Ingredients

  • Fold in wet ingredients to dry, and mix until a clumpy dough is formed.

    I 100% feel you–I’m the laziest wannabe baker/cook in the world. I like to experiment and it’s so hard to do that when baking!!! And whenever I try something that actually turns out edible AND good, I forget to write down what I did. Arghhh
    These look absolutely magical by the way

      You can substitute it for whole wheat or all-purpose flour :)

    Hi Well and Full! I just discovered your page and am SO happy that I did. I really want to make these bars but is there any way to make them gluten free? Do you suggest subbing the spelt flour for coconut flour or almond flour? Maybe quinoa flour? Thank you!

    1. Sarah Avatar
      Sarah

      Hey Lee!! Thanks for stopping by :) I haven’t tested this recipe with gluten-free flours so I can’t vouch for them working or not, but I bet almond flour would taste delicious in this recipe. Or maybe a gluten-free all purpose flour mix, I like this recipe by Minimalist Baker. Hope this helps :)

    Hi! I couldn’t find coconut butter at the store. What could I use instead?

    1. Sarah Avatar
      Sarah

      Hi Jessi, I don’t think coconut butter could be replaced with anything due to its unique structure :( I’m sorry!
