Vegan Keto Chocolate Chip Cookies (gluten-free, nut-free, soy-free) – Meat Free Keto

Eleven years in the past, I finished consuming gluten totally and it completely modified my digestion. I used to be already vegan on the time, and shortly after began experimenting with ketogenic diets. All through the years, I’ve been searching for methods to switch my favourite vegan chocolate chip cookie recipe to be each gluten-free and keto-friendly, and for some motive, I’ve by no means posted about it. So, as I used to be indulging in making myself a batch of those vegan keto chocolate chip cookies (which are gluten-free, nut-free and soy-free, amongst different issues), I believed I’d put up about it.

The components for this recipe are fairly fundamental, with one exception: lupin flour. I’ve been baking with lupin flour for just a few years now, and actually get pleasure from utilizing it due to the excessive protein and fiber content material. It additionally works very well in cookies, brownies and different much less delicate baked items as a flour substitute. There are some caveats, although. Lupin flour can have a reasonably sturdy style, so it’s necessary to steadiness that with different flavors. Within the case of this cookie, that’s the vanilla, the golden sweetener, and the chocolate.

One thing that’s necessary to notice with lupin flour is that it may well cross-react with peanuts. So, for these with a peanut allergy, you might need to search for another. I’ve obtained an inventory going within the notes under that I’ll be including to as I do extra experimenting.

The remainder of the components, like a granulated sugar-free sweetener or a flax seeds are pretty simple to seek out in most North American grocery shops lately.
