How to Make Macadamia Nut Cookies From Scratch
Not only are these cookies delicious, they fill your home with the most nostalgic aroma.
Step 1: Make the cookie dough
Using two separate mixing bowls, whisk together the dry ingredients and the wet ingredients. Stir together until just combined, then fold in the mini vegan white chocolate chips and chopped macadamia nuts.
Step 2: Roll into balls
Form a dozen balls from the cookie dough and place on a parchment paper lined baking sheet. Depending on the size, you may need to use a second baking sheet.
Step 3: Bake and let cool
Bake for 10-12 minutes, remove from oven, and let cool on the baking sheet.
These cookies are perfect as a sweet afternoon snack, indulgent dessert, or served at any party or occasion.
Recipe Tips & FAQ
There are a handful of store-bought vegan chocolate chips nowadays.
Refined coconut oil has a neutral taste, making it a great butter replacement when baking. For this recipe, make sure you're using room temperature coconut oil.
Gluten free 1 to 1 flour is a great substitute for all purpose flour!
You could try including dark chocolate, dried cranberries, and other nuts!
Make sure you're measuring the coconut oil (or plant-based butter) accurately. If you use too much, these will spread out on the baking sheet. The end result will still be a tasty cookie but with lots of excess oil. Additionally, if you notice your cookies are spreading before baking, pop the baking sheet in the fridge for a few minutes to help the dough firm up.
