Ingredients
  

  • 2 tbsp flax meal
  • 4 tbsp warm water
  • ½ cup white sugar 100g
  • ½ cup brown sugar packed 110g
  • ½ cup vegan butter room temp., 112g
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tsp espresso powder or instant coffee powder
  • 2 ¼ cup all-purpose flour 270g
  • 4-5 cardamom pods shelled and crushed, or 1 tsp ground cardamom
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • ½ tsp salt
  • 1 cup vegan chocolate chips
  • Flaky salt for garnishing

Instructions
 

  • In a small bowl, combine the flax meal and water, mix well and set aside to gel up for about 5-10 minutes.
  • Add the brown and white sugar and vegan butter to a larger bowl and whisk until creamed with a hand mixer or stand-mix.
  • Mix in the flax "egg", espresso powder, and vanilla extract, and beat until combined.
  • Sift in the flour, ground cardamom, baking powder, and salt.
  • Using a rubber spatula or wooden spoon mix the ingredients together.
  • Then, fold in the chocolate chips. Be careful not to overwork it. At this point the dough will be dry, so you may want to use your hands to work the dough, and it will likely not hold together.
  • Then, place the dough in the refrigerator to chill for 30-60 minutes.
  • Preheat oven to 170°C or 350°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone sheet.
  • Scoop batter with an ice cream scoop and place them on the baking sheet, leaving space between each cookie so they can spread.
  • Bake 6 cookies on a tray at a time, making sure to keep 2 inches around the cookie for them to spread.
  • Bake for 10-12 minutes, depending on the softness of the cookies you prefer.
  • Remove from the oven, and let them cool for 5 minutes before transferring them to a cooling rack. Let them cool completely before eating.
  • Then, serve with some coffee or chai!
