Chunky Monkey Cookies (Vegan, Oil-Free, Sugar-Free)

These Chunky Monkey Cookies are not only vegan, but also oil-free and sugar-free. But you wouldn’t notice that because they are fudgy, perfectly sweet and a real flavor explosion in your mouth. Banana, chocolate, walnuts, peanut butter… you’ll love those!

I never had cookies like these before and I bet you haven’t either! They are super soft and fudgy. Almost too fudgy? Is this a thing? I don’t think so.

The cookies are made without eggs, dairy, sugar or oil. Instead I’ve used banans (very ripe ones because they are the sweetest), almond milk, flour, baking power and of course the add ins to make these cookies into Chunky Monkey Cookies.

The add ins for the Chunky Monkey Cookies:

• chocolate chunks
• chopped walnuts
• blobs of peanut butter
• and lots of bananas! And I don’t mean banana extract or flavoring. I mean real bananas!

And yes, I’ve been inspired for those by the Ben & Jerry’s Ice Cream that is one of the vegan flavors!

These cookies are great to give to friends, family and co-workers. The easiest way to make someone like you is to bake them cookies ;)

The combination of peanut butter, chocolate and bananas is a classic one. Who doesn’t love that combo?!

Actually what I find most spectacular about these cookies is that they are sugar-free and oil-free (don’t mind the add-ins). Healthy never tasted that good!
