These Vegan Magic Cookies are a delightful, low-carb treat that’s perfect for anyone following a vegan and vegan diet. They are crunchy, chewy, nutty, and chocolatey with only 1.5g NET CARBS per cookie!
Ingredients
- 4 tablespoons of coconut oil
- 2 tablespoons of almond butter (or other nut/seed butter)
- 1/3 cup Confectioners Swerve (or another vegan-friendly sweetener)
- 1 cup unsweetened shredded coconut
- 1/3 cup chopped pecans
- 1/3 cup chopped walnuts
- 2/3 cup vegan chocolate chips (like Lily’s or ChocZero)
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (176°C).
- Prepare Wet Ingredients: In a medium bowl, melt the coconut oil and almond butter together. Mix well until combined.
- Combine Ingredients: Add the Confectioners Swerve to the bowl and whisk until fully incorporated. Stir in the shredded coconut, chopped pecans, chopped walnuts, and vegan chocolate chips. Mix until everything is evenly distributed.
- Chill Dough: Place the bowl in the refrigerator for 30 to 45 minutes to let the dough firm up, making it easier to shape.
- Shape and Bake: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Use a cookie scoop or spoon to form 12 dough balls and place them on the prepared baking sheet. Flatten each dough ball slightly with the back of a spoon.
- Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 8 to 10 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown.
- Cool: Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a cooling rack.
Enjoy your vegan magic cookies!
