I LOVE these cookies. I make them using butter and date syrup (lower glycemic index than maple syrup). They are absolutely delicious and so easy to make. I bake them 1-2 times a week.

These came out great! I used earth balance vegan butter. I was worried at first that they would be too liquidy and almost added more flour but decided to follow directions and put in the fridge first. I waited 10 or so minutes. They still seemed kind of liquidy for cookie batter – but i put 12 tablespoon full ones on the cookie sheet and put it in. They did flatten out and became very thin cookies but were so yummy! Love the healthier version of the chocolate chip cookie and it is still so sweet!

These cookies turned out great! I used melted butter and maple syrup, and followed all the instructions/tips.
Kate, you are seriously a life saver and have restored my hope… two years ago I went on a sugar fast, and during discovered the migraines I’ve suffered since childhood were due to sugar! Amazing! So I have been sugar free for two years, and finding you blog a year and a half ago changed my life. I have always been the baker of the family, so quitting sugar pretty much eliminated the joy of baking for me. Then when I started experimenting with your recipes, it was the best and everything turned out so yummy!! Thankfully I can have natural sugars like honey, maple syrup and Lakanto’s monkfruit sweetener. My dad bought me your cookbook for my birthday last year, and it is my favorite!!
All that to say, thank you Kate!

Chef tips: if you can use egg and brown sugar rather than honey or maple, do so. If no egg, use egg substitute to keep cookies together. Weigh your ingredients. Follow a normal cookie-mixing technique by creaming the room temp [not melted] fat and brown sugar til fluffy. Mix in egg, cinnamon/extract and baking soda. Once combined, then add your weighed flours. Fold in chocolate and bake until golden and set around the edges. Store airtight. When done this way, these cookies are better than any you’ll ever buy, I promise!

After reading the comments I was very careful to be precise with measurements. I used coconut oil instead of butter and I used honey instead of maple syrup. The batter was loose but put in fridge for more than 10 minutes. I used my small scoop to place cookies on the sheet. They looked beautiful! But alas after about 5 minutes, they deflated. I baked them for exactly 11 min. What I can say regardless of the flattening is they are delicious!

LOVE this recipe! Gluten free, naturally sweetened and toddler approved. As there is no egg, I could safely bake them and spoon licking was totally allowed. This is being added to the favourite roster immediately.

I doubled the recipe with no issues and followed the recipe and instructions to the letter and it turned out perfect! I used amber honey and Dark Ontario maple syrup with unsweetened chocolate chips.

PERFECT! thank you for this delicious recipe!
