Vegan Blueberry Cookies

5 from 1 rating
Hannah Kling
These Vegan Blueberry Cookies are naturally blue from frozen blueberries that are baked right into the cookie dough. These cookies come together in just under an hour and are the perfect addition to your next Spring gathering.
Prep Time 40 minutes
Total Time 1 hour

Ingredients  

  • ¾ cup frozen blueberries (can use fresh)
  • ⅓ cup plant based butter (I like Country Crock plant cream, softened. Can use grass-fed butter.)
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • ½ cup cane sugar (can sub coconut sugar but will alter color of cookies)
  • 1.5 cups all-purpose flour (can use 1:1 gluten free flour blend)
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup dairy free mini chocolate chips

Instructions

  • Start by adding frozen blueberries to a small saucepan and heat over medium heat and allow to simmer for 2-3 minutes or until blueberries are soft and tender. Remove from pan and allow to cool for 10 minutes.
  • Next, in an electric mixer, add in the plant cream and beat on medium to high speed for 1-2 minutes. Scraping down the sides as needed.
  • Then, add in the blueberries and beat on low speed for a minute, then beat on high speed for 2-3 minutes or until blueberries are well incorporated into the butter.
  • Add in the vanilla extract and sugar next and beat for another 1-2 minutes. Scraping down the sides as needed.
  • Mix together the flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt in a separate bowl. Then, slowly add into the wet ingredients. Mix on low speed until combined.
  • Fold in the chocolate chips last and then cover and refrigerate dough for a minimum of 30 minutes.
  • When ready, preheat the oven to 375F and prepare a baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper. Scoop dough using a single cookie scoop and add to the prepare baking sheet. Bake for 10-12 minutes.
  • Let cool for 5 minutes on the baking sheet before moving and enjoy!

Notes

  • Use frozen blueberries for best results, these tend to create more juice and a better color in my opinion, although fresh will work too.
  • An electric mixer is best for this recipe to really incorporate the butter into the blueberries.
  • Refrigerate dough for a minimum of 30 minutes to ensure the cookies don't spread too much during baking time.
  • Feel free to use white, regular or dark chocolate chips!
