Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Bites (Vegan, Gluten Free)

Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Bites (V+GF): An easy, guilt-free recipe for seriously delicious chocolate chip cookie dough bites. Vegan and Gluten Free.

Who here loves eating raw cookie dough? Can I get a show of hands?

As for the rest of the people not raising their hands… Is it because you’re currently wearing TWO very heavy watches?

Or is it because there are usually raw eggs in said cookie dough? Is it because ya feel kinda guilty eating cookie dough? Or is it because you like being asked, like, a million questions in a row?

Well, if you said yes to any of the above questions, I’ve got exactly what you need, including some much lighter watches. (Did you really say yes to being asked a million questions? Well, there’s another for ya. ?)

For years, I’ve heard Erik talk about how much he absolutely loves, loves, loves eating raw cookie dough. You would think, if he could, he’d trade me in for a big tub of cookie dough. Erik, if you’re reading this, I’m giving you a dirty look right now.

But then again, who else would let him take a big mixing spoon full of that raw goodness if it weren’t for me? (There I go with more questions…)

What a quandary.

I’ve also enjoyed a misty watercolored memory or two reminiscing about the days before we knew eating raw cookie dough was dangerous and all of that other adult stuff.

Well, folks (and Erik, that cookie dough eating traitor), I’ve finally cooked up (but not really, because, ya know…) a no bake, raw or whatever you wanna call it, eggless, dairy-free cookie dough that you can feel good about eating.

That’s right, good about eating. Do you love me already?

This is one of the coolest, coolest things about vegan baking: you can eat/test/faceplant whatever it is you’re stirring up in that mixing bowl of yours. Cuz… no uncooked danger zone. Yay!!

Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

  • 1 ½ cups gluten free rolled oats
  • 1 ¼ cups gluten free oat flour
  • ¾ cup unsweetened, shredded coconut
  • ½ teaspoon salt

Wet Ingredients

  • ¼ cup melted coconut oil
  • ½ cup pure maple syrup
  • 2 flax eggs (whisk together 2 tablespoons ground flax + 6 tablespoons warm water, let set for 15 mins)

Add-in Ingredients

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, whisk together all of the dry ingredients: oats, flour, coconut, and salt.

  1. Is there anything I can sub for the pats? We are a grain free family due to allergies, but I would LOVE to make these. They’re calling my name!

  2. Hi. I tried these and they came out dry. Any suggestions as to what I can add to make them a little moist? Peanut Butter or something else?






  3. Absolutely love these!! We keep a batch in the freezer at all times! .. I’ve added tart cherries and grass fed whey a couple of times too! Thank you so much for this great recipe.






    1. Hi Christy, that’s so fantastic to hear! Oooooh, I’ve got to try these with cherries! That’s sounds incredible. Thank you for taking the time to let me know. Hugs!

  4. I’d love to know the nutritional information for this recipe. How many bites equal a serving? How many calories per serving? Thanks so much!






    1. Hi Kim! I just finished calculating and entering the nutrition info for this recipe. 😉 You can find it below the Notes section of the recipe. Enjoy! 🙂

  5. Love, love, love this recipe, but I don’t currently have any shredded coconut (and I’m not headed to the store until Saturday….I need these now through lol). Do you think I could just add more oats? Thanks so much.

    1. Hi Rebecca, so glad to hear you love it! 🙂 Let’s see… I think you just might need to reduce the amount of oats (instead of doing a 1:1 sub). Try subbing the coconut for 1/2 cup + 2 tablespoons oats. So, a total of 2 cups + 2 tablespoons oats for the entire recipe. Let me know how it turns out!

  6. Hi! These look amazing but I’m grain-free. Any thoughts on how to make this grain free, or would it change the recipe too much? Thanks! 🙂

    1. Hmm… sorry, Dani, I’m not sure. But you’ve definitely got me thinking about making a grain-free, paleo version of these cookie dough bites. Let me add that to my list of recipes to develop over the next few months. Sorry I couldn’t be of more help! xo

    1. Woohoo! Sometime ya just need some cookie dough–but without all the guilt! Glad you enjoyed this, Lindsay. 🙂

  7. Would love to make this recipe because I’m allergic to eggs and wheat! They look so good and something fun to bring to the office where I can surprise everyone with how being gluten free isn’t all that bad.
    The only thing I’m curious about is can you really taste the coconut and is there a substitute for that?






    1. Hi Jennifer, this would definitely be a wonderful treat to share and show people that GF recipes can be awesome! 🙂 I don’t personally notice the coconut (it’s added more for sweetness and texture). But if you don’t particularly like coconut, another reader has swapped it out for crunchy PB. Here’s what she said: “I just tried this recipe without shredded coconut (It’s not my fave either, and I didn’t have any on hand). I substituted 1/2 cup of natural crunchy peanut butter (or your preferred nut butter) with the wet ingredients and omitted salt (since my pb was salted) – the consistency turned out great and the flavor is so delicious.” Hope this helps! Can’t wait to hear how the office likes it! 🙂

  8. So, this is pretty much safe raw cookie dough?!?! Where was this when I was pregnant??? Girl, I craved cookie dough soooo bad, you don’t even know. I may have even snuck a few bites with the raw eggs!!!!
    I’m definitely going to be giving this recipe a try-thanks so much for sharing! <3

    1. YEP! 100% safe! 😉 Hehe… well, pregnant or not, you’ll totally love this! Can’t wait to hear what you think, Savannah! 🙂

  9. OMG…Found this recipe and got up and made them. I think they’re going to get eaten by the spoonful right out of the bowl. I was thinking of taking some to share with my PiYo class tomorrow but, there may be none left. So good!

    1. Yep, by the spoonful sounds about right. 😉 That’s totally how it went down in my house! Your poor PiYo classmates… they’ll never know the joy. Hehe. J/k! Forget sharesies, this cookie dough recipe means business. Thanks so much for taking the time to let me know how you liked them, Caron! 🙂

    1. Hi Kim, I’m not completely sure since I’ve never tried it. Perhaps you could replace with a combo of oats, mini chocolate chips and/or finely chopped nuts. Be sure to let me know how it turns out. Enjoy!

    2. Kim, I just tried this recipe without shredded coconut (It’s not my fave either, and I didn’t have any on hand). I substituted 1/2 cup of natural crunchy peanut butter (or your preferred nut butter) with the wet ingredients and omitted salt (since my pb was salted) – the consistency turned out great and the flavor is so delicious. Just thought I’d let you know, since I came over with the same question 🙂

      1. Thanks so much for the feedback Amber! 🙂 Such a great idea to use natural crunchy peanut butter! 😉

    1. Oh, that’s wonderful Priya! I’m glad glad that you enjoyed it. 🙂 Thank you for letting me know how it turned out. 🙂

  10. I remember growing up eating cookie dough was my guilty pleasure. I had to do it secretly, when my mom wasn’t looking, coz you know…eggs and stuff. Unfortunately nowadays I don’t really bake (actually never), which is a shame, because now I could FINALLY enjoy all the raw cookie dough without parental advisory 😀
    So thanks a lot for this recipe, I will definitely try it. It sounds amazing. But just to be authentic I won’t roll it into balls but eat it from the bowl with my hands!






    1. Yup, I SO know!! No parental advisory = fun! Haha, j/k. You know, I think you’ve got just the right idea there, Evi. Time to grab a big bowl and an even bigger spoon. 😉 Thanks E!

    1. Yay!!! I hope you get a chance to try these. 🙂 Yep, but don’t tell anyone these are healthy. 😉 Btw, Erik is liking the shoutouts. Hehe. Thanks Karrie!

  11. Demeter- I made these cookie dough bites yesterday and have to confess that between my fiancé and i, we may have eaten a third of the batch before i even rolled them into balls. Haha. We aren’t the most patient people! I am taking a few bites over to a friend’s house today. Thank you for this awesome, delicious recipe and I cannot WAIT to see what else you have in store for them!






    1. Omigosh!! Thank you Lucy, for reporting back. 🙂 I’m so incredibly happy that you and your fiancee enjoyed them. Congrats on the engagement, btw! 🙂 Hope you stay tuned to see! Thanks again for letting me know how they turned out!
