Healthy Honey Monster Cookies are as good as they sound and in case you were looking for a new favorite gluten-free and allergy-friendly cookie dough to devour, I suggest this recipe for that too as long as you go egg-free. Auqafaba would be the perfect egg substitute in these cookies.
Be sure to use certified gluten-free oats to guarantee they are safe for gluten-free diets. Of course, you can substitute the honey for a vegan monster cookie.
What If You Have Other Food Sensitivities?
- You can make these tasty cookies with or without eggs; I used aquafaba as an egg substitute.
- A dairy-free cookie option is possible by using Enjoy Life Semi-Sweet Chocolate Mini Chips, and Choco No Nos.
