Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 tbsp (7.5 g) potato protein powder
  • 2½ tbsp (37 g) water
  • ½ cup (100 g) applesauce
  • 1 tbsp (12 g) oil
  • 3 tbsp (45 g) McCormick red liquid food coloring
  • 1 tsp (4 g) vanilla extract
  • 2½ oz (71 g) semisweet chocolate
  • 3½ tbsp (47 g) vegan butter
  • 3/4 cup (150g) granulated sugar
  • ⅓ cup + 1 tbsp (83g) brown sugar
  • ⅔ cup + 1 tbsp (95g) oat flour
  • ½ cup (53 g) millet flour
  • 3 tbsp (25 g) white rice flour
  • 2 tsp (3 g) potato starch
  • 1 tbsp (6 g) tapioca starch
  • 5 tbsp (30 g) cocoa powder
  • ¾ tsp (3 g) baking powder
  • ⅛ tsp (0.4 g) baking soda
  • ½ tsp (2.5 g) salt
  • ½ cup (60 g) powdered sugar (for rolling)

Instructions

  1. Heat oven to 350°F.
  2. Mix potato protein powder with water; let thicken a 5 minutes.
  3. Melt chocolate with vegan butter, stir in sugars. Add to wet mix (applesauce, oil, red coloring, vanilla, potato protein gel) and combine.
  4. Whisk dry ingredients together, then stir into wet mix until uniform. Dough will be soft.
  5. Chill dough 2+ hours or overnight until firm enough to scoop. Dough should be soft but hold shape; you should be able to scoop and lightly roll with minimal powdered sugar.
  6. Scoop dough into balls, roll in powdered sugar, place on parchment-lined baking sheet.
  7. Bake 10–12 minutes. Cookies are done when edges look set but centers are soft. Cool a few minutes on the pan before moving to a rack.
