Gluten-Free Vegan Flourless Chocolate Fudge Mint Cookies
If you like easy and healthy cookie recipes, you'll just love this one!
They are very similar to my Flourless Chocolate Chip Pecan Cookies, but I used a different nut butter and added Organic Peppermint Essential Oil to give them an intense mint flavor.
Are These Flourless Vegan Chocolate Mint Cookies Healthy?
In my opinion, yes!
They are made without the following ingredients that are typically found in S.A.D. (Standard American Diet ) cookie recipes:
- No white flour
- No white sugar
- No eggs
- No butter
- No oil
- No alcohol-based extract
Most store-bought S.A.D. (Standard American Diet) peppermint extract brands contain alcohol as the main ingredient:
S.A.D. (Standard American Diet) McCormick's Peppermint Extract: Ingredients: Alcohol (89%), Oil of Peppermint, Water
Instead, I used Organic Peppermint Essential Oil for a clean, intense peppermint flavor.
With my healthy cookie recipe, you can enjoy a chocolate brownie + mint flavor combination in a healthier dessert made with clean, real food ingredients and they're vegan, gluten-free, dairy-free, egg-free, oil-free, paleo-friendly, contain no refined sugar and are Medical Medium compliant!
