These Vegan White Chocolate Macadamia Nut Cookies are the ultimate upgrade of the classic. These cookies are soft, chewy, sweet, and packed full of macadamia nutty goodness. This recipe is vegan, refined sugar-free, oil-free, and gluten-free.
In a small bowl, combine the ground flaxseed with water to create a flaxseed egg. Allow it to sit for a few minutes until it thickens.
Mix the Dry Ingredients:
In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, maple crystals, cornstarch, and baking soda.
Combine Wet Ingredients:
In another bowl, mix the flaxseed egg, vanilla extract, Wilderness Poets Maple Macadamia Nut SPiN Nut Milk Concentrate, and water.
Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients:
Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring until a soft cookie dough forms.
Fold in Macadamia Nuts and White Chocolate:
Gently fold in the chopped raw macadamia nuts and vegan white chocolate chips until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Chill Dough:
The cookie dough needs to chill for about 30 minutes to help control the spread. Chill in the fridge until firm for best results.
Preheat the Oven:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
Scoop and Bake:
Using a cookie scoop or spoon, drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving enough space between each cookie.
You can add a couple of vegan white chocolate chips and macadamia nuts to the top of the cookie dough balls. This will ensure that they will look their best after baking.
Bake to Perfection:
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until the edges are golden brown. The centers may appear slightly undercooked but will firm up as they cool.
Cool and Enjoy:
Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Indulge:
Once cooled, indulge in the delightful combination of crunchy macadamia nuts and creamy white chocolate in every heavenly bite!
