Pumpkin, chocolate, spice and everything nice. That’s what these gluten free vegan chocolate chip cookies are made of!
Can I just say, I love baking chocolate chip cookies. All kinds. Oatmeal chocolate chip cookies, chocolate chip cookie bars and the oh so perfect classic chocolate chip cookie. Chewy, soft, warm {necessary} and LOADED with chocolate chips {also necessary}.
For pumpkin season, I’ve created these gluten free vegan pumpkin chocolate chip cookies. They are soft from the pumpkin puree, have just the right amount of pumpkin spice and just so happen to be allergen free. Don’t forget about ALL the chocolate chips! The most important part. They are what I call the “fall version” of the chocolate chip cookie. A combination of flavors that will have you going back for just one more.
To make these irresistible pumpkin chocolate chip cookies, I went for my go-to Enjoy Life dark chocolate morsels. I first found out about Enjoy Life products at a Gluten Free Expo in San Fransisco years ago. I was pretty new to being gluten free and new to being a blogger too. I was on the hunt for safe, delicious products that I could feed my family. I was so impressed with not only the quality of Enjoy Life’s products, but everything they produced was free of the top 8 allergens. They actually tasted good too!
Enjoy Life has you covered when it comes to allergen free baking chocolate. They have their dark chocolate morsels, semi-sweet mini chocolate chips and semi-sweet mega chunks. I think it’s pretty fantastic that you can find their baking chocolate in most retailers now, making it easy to get your hands on them. Not sure where to find Enjoy Life products in your area?
