Cuisine: American
Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- ½ tsp baking powder
- ¼ tsp kosher salt
- ½ cup rolled oats
- ¼ tsp cinnamon
- ½ cup (1 stick) unsalted vegan butter, room temp
- ½ cup brown sugar, packed
- ¼ cup granulated sugar
- ½ tsp vanilla extract
- 3 tbsp aquafaba
- 6 oz dark chocolate, roughly chopped
- optional: ½ cup walnuts, roughly chopped
- Coarse sea salt
Instructions
- Preheat grill or bbq to between 350F and 375F, and grease a baking sheet.
- In a small mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, kosher salt, rolled oats, and cinnamon.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar. Using an electric hand mixer, beat together the butter and sugars until light and fluffy, 2 to 3 minutes. Beat in the vanilla. Add the aquafaba one tablespoon at a time and beat until well combined.
- Using a spatula, gradually add the flour mixture into the batter-sugar mixture. Mix until just combined. Fold in the chocolate and walnuts, if using.
- Spoon tablespoon-size balls of dough onto the baking sheet, leaving about 2 inches between the dough balls.
- Scoop the chilled cookie dough onto the baking sheet. Make sure to leave about 2 inches between scoops.
- Place the baking sheet on the grill, close the lid and grill for 10-13 mins, or until just beginning to golden.
- Remove the cookies from the oven and sprinkle each one with a few grains of sea salt … it’s really important to do this while the cookies are hot so the salt sticks. Let the cookies cool for a couple minutes, then transfer to a cooling rack. Repeat with the remaining dough.
Notes
Tips:
Preheat your grill for 10-15 min.
Make sure you're baking over indirect medium heat. If you can’t grill indirectly: place a metal cake pan upside down or use bricks on the grills and then place the baking sheet on top to bake.
Don’t open the grill before the time is up, this will allow too much heat to escape.
In-between batches, make sure you let the grill come back up to temperature.
