Ingredients

1 cup coconut sugar
½ cup melted coconut oil
⅓ cup unsweetened applesauce
2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 ½ cups gluten free flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
½ cup vegan chocolate chips

Instructions

First, preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Line an 8-inch square pan with parchment paper.
In a mixing bowl, add the coconut sugar and melted coconut oil. Stir together.
Then, add in the applesauce and vanilla. Stir together.
Add in the gluten free flour and baking powder. Mix until fully combined.
Fold in the vegan chocolate chips.
Transfer the batter into the prepared pan. Spread into an even layer.
Bake for 18 to 20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out with only moist crumbs.
Finally, remove the pan from the oven. Cool fully before slicing and serving.

Notes

If needed, replace the coconut oil with melted vegan butter.
If you are not gluten free, feel free to use all-purpose flour.
Do not bake too long. They should still look soft in the middle.
Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
