Almond Pulp Chocolate Chip Cookies
These almond pulp and chocolate chip cookies are the perfect gluten free and vegan afternoon snack. They are a great way to use the leftover almond pulp you get when making almond milk!
How to make almond pulp chocolate chip cookies
Preheat the oven to 350°F – 180°C, and prepare a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
You can either make the dough using a stand mixer with the paddle attachment, or simply with a bowl and a spatula.
Make sure the margarine is at room temperature so that it’s nice and soft. Mix it with the brown sugar. Then, add the almond pulp and flour, baking soda, and salt. Incorporate the oil, almond milk, and lastly, the chocolate chips.
Divide the dough in eight pieces and shape the cookies, pressing them down on the parchment paper.
Bake for 18 to 20 minutes, until the cookies are golden brown. Allow to cool down.
Almond pulp cookies are crunchy on the outside and best eaten the day of, they tend to get softer once wrapped.
The best way to store them is to wrap them in aluminum foil or put them in a metal tin container.
About the ingredients
Almond pulp is the by-product from making almond milk. Here is how to make your own almond milk.
Margarine can be substituted with vegan butter. Make sure that it is soft enough before combining with the rest of the ingredients.
Canola oil can be replaced by any kind of oil you like, hazelnut or sesame oils would be good pairings!
I used semi sweet dark chocolate chips. You could also use unsweetened dark chocolate chips as the cookies are already pretty sweet.

My son was trying to make cookies today, following some youtuber’s recipe, but it didn’t go that well. Yours, on the other hand, look absolutely fantastic 🙂 I’m gonna show him this recipe and he can try again tomorrow.
Thank you! Let me know how it went!
