Ingredients
Scale
- 1 1/2 cups gluten-free all-purpose flour blend (with xanthan gum)
- 1/2 tsp baking soda

- 1 large egg (or flax egg for vegan option)
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 3/4 cup dairy-free chocolate chips
Instructions
- 1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

- 3. In a large bowl, beat together coconut oil (or vegan butter), brown sugar, and granulated sugar until creamy.
- 4. Add egg and vanilla extract; mix until smooth and well combined.
- 5. Gradually stir the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until a soft dough forms.
- 6. Fold in dairy-free chocolate chips.
- 7. Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
- 8. Bake for 9–11 minutes, or until edges are lightly golden and centers are just set.

Notes
- For a vegan version, replace the egg with a flax egg (1 tbsp ground flaxseed mixed with 3 tbsp water).
- Chill the dough for 30 minutes before baking for thicker cookies.
- Use refined coconut oil for a neutral flavor, or unrefined for a hint of coconut.
- Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 4 days or freeze for up to 2 months.
