GF Vegan Toll House Chocolate Chip Cookies taste so much like the “real deal” no one will know they are without gluten, dairy, or eggs.
Leave some space between cookies because they will spread out while baking.
Most of the time I make cookies with two tablespoons of dough, as I did these. No need to flatten them before baking, they will flatten just fine on their own in the oven.
How Are These Cookies Different Than The Famous Toll House Chocolate Chip Cookies?
- Dairy-free/plant-based butter
- Aquafaba for the eggs
- Gluten-free flours tiger nut and cassava
- Allergy-friendly chocolate chips
A Few Facts About Tiger Nuts:
- A great option for Paleo, gluten-free, nut-free, and Keto diets because it’s low in carbohydrates and high in antioxidants and fiber.
- Tiger nuts are not actually nuts; they are tuber vegetables that can be ground up into flour.
- They have ample amounts of magnesium, potassium, calcium, iron, and vitamin E.
A Few Facts About Cassava Flour:
- Do not eat cassava flour raw.
- It’s gluten-free and can replace grain-based flour in baking and as a thickener in sauces.
- Unlike some gluten-free flours (coconut and almond) it is low in calories and fat.
- It contains resistant starches, which are beneficial to digestion and colon health.
