It may seem like these cookies have too much going on, but they don’t! They’re really rich and chewy and delicious vegan cookies!
Ingredients
- 1 cup almond butter
- 1 cup packed brown sugar
- 2/3 cup shortening
- 1/3 cup vegan margarine
- 1 overripe banana, mashed
- 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 ½ teaspoons baking soda
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon water, or as needed (Optional)
- 3 ounces dark chocolate, chopped
- ½ cup white sugar
- 36 whole blanched almonds (Optional)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
Step 2
Mix almond butter, brown sugar, shortening, and margarine together in a bowl until creamy. Stir in mashed banana.
Step 3
Combine flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt in a bowl. Stir into almond butter mixture. Stir in water if dough appears too thick. Fold in dark chocolate.
Step 4
Pour white sugar onto a shallow dish. Form dough into 1-inch balls and roll in sugar. Arrange 2 inches apart on baking sheets; flatten with a fork. Top each cookie with an almond.
Step 5
Bake in the preheated oven until lightly browned, about 10 minutes. Cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Cook’s Note:
To blanch almonds: Place almonds in boiling water for 30 seconds, then remove with a slotted spoon and squeeze them out of their skins.
