No fuss food processor vegan cookies

Secret ingredient to get the most amazing chewy cookies

If you had asked me ten years ago if I would ever consider putting beans in my cookies, I would have looked at you with shock. But today that’s exactly what I’m doing. Because using beans in cookies creates that amazing chewy texture that embraces and enhances the chocolate in the most amazing way. It completely eliminates the need for eggs or egg substitutes as the beans work as a natural binder.

Frequently asked questions 

Can I use another type of beans in my cookies?

Sure. Kidney beans can also work, although I find I prefer the darkness and depth from the black beans. 

Butter beans could potentially work as well, but I’ve never tried using them in a cookie so I can’t guarantee the results.

Why isn’t there flour in the recipe?

This amazing cookie recipe doesn’t even need flour. It utilizes the black beans and cacao powder as the flour substitute, making it a completely gluten-free tasty chocolate cookie recipe.

Are these cookies freezer friendly?

You can freeze them before baking and simply grab them straight from the freezer and put them in the oven. Just add 5-7 minutes of baking time to make sure they are baked all the way through.

How long can I store the cookies?

Because the cookies are chewy and delicious they can be stored for up to a week in a cool place in an airtight container. 

These amazing chewy double chocolate cookies topped with crunchy pecans are a deep, rich and decadent dessert. Made with no flour, no eggs and no refined sugar, but loaded with luxe chocolatey flavors.

Ingredients

  • 1 15oz can Black Beans Rinsed and drained
  • ½ cup Peanut Butter or Almond Butter
  • cup Pure Maple Syrup
  • ¼ cup+2tbsp Cacao Powder
  • 1 tsp Vanilla Extract
  • tsp Baking Powder
  • 3 tsp Instant Espresso Coffee
  • Pinch of salt
  • cup Chocolate Chips Vegan
  • ½ cup Nuts Pecans or Hazelnuts

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350F and line a baking sheet with baking paper.
  • Lightly pat the beans dry after rinsing to get as much water off them as possible. 
    In a small bowl or cup, mix 1 tbsp hot water with the espresso powder and whisk together. 
  • Add all the ingredients, except the chocolate chips and nuts, to a food processor and pulse until everything is completely combined. (You may need to scrape down the sides a few times).
    Once the ingredients come together to a dough, stir in the chocolate chips with a spoon.
  • Use a large cookie spoon or ice cream spoon to scoop the dough into 8 cookies. 
    Place the cookies on the lined baking tray and press them into the size and shape you want (the cookies won’t spread out or melt while cooking).
    Top with the chopped nuts and tap them lightly into the dough so they stick.
  • Bake the cookies in the oven for 8-10 minutes or until the nuts have turned golden and the cookies have set and are just beginning to crack on top.
  • Remove from the oven and let them cook for 10 minutes before moving them to a rack to cool completely.
    Enjoy.
