Jennifer Ashton Instagram – Eating healthy doesn’t mean never indulging! Here’s an easy recipe for people who hate to cook…like me!
Meet these Vegan, 15-minute, easy Spent Coffee Grounds Chocolate Chip Cookies!
This recipe uses spent coffee grounds (loaded with fiber, antioxidants, and yes… caffeine) and olive oil for healthy fats.
It was my first time making them and honestly?
A solid 7-8 /10. (Note: I made them again the next day and they were a 10/10…I don’t think I stirred the first batch well enough!)
The olive oil flavor was actually delicious, and now, I’m obsessed with them. And the fact that I’ve actually made these again says a lot, given how much I dislike cooking!
Here’s the recipe:
Ingredients:
• 1.5 cups bread flour
• 0.5 tsp baking soda
• 0.5 tsp salt
• 3.5 oz golden or white granulated sugar
• 3.5 oz dark brown sugar
• 1.4 oz leftover espresso grounds (decaf or regular)
• 2.8 oz extra virgin olive oil
• 1.5 fl oz soy milk
• 1 tsp white miso
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 5 oz dark chocolate (at least 70% cacao)
A quick walk-through of the steps:
1. Mix dry ingredients — flour, baking soda, salt.
2. Whisk wet ingredients — olive oil, soy milk, miso, and vanilla along with the sugar.
3. Combine wet dry to form your dough.
4. Fold in dark chocolate then refrigerate for at least 30 minutes (longer is better)
5. Scoop and bake at 350°F for 12-14 minutes. ***note: I have experimented with gluten-free flour for this: still delicious, but defiitely less moist!
Truly simple. If I can do it, anyone can.
