🍪 Vegan Chocolate Chip Skillet Cookie
The Easiest Dessert for Busy Weekends
Soccer weekends are always a whirlwind — games, snacks, carpools, and somehow the kids still ask for dessert at the end of the day. This skillet cookie is my go-to because it’s ridiculously simple, takes just one bowl, and comes out soft, gooey, and melty in under 30 minutes. Think: a giant chocolate chip cookie baked into a cozy skillet — perfect for sharing, but no judgment if you grab your own fork.
I love using Enjoy Life vegan chocolate chips here. They’re free from the top allergens, so everyone can dig in without worry, and they melt beautifully into those gooey puddles you want in every bite.
Ingredients
1 ½ cups almond flour (or oat flour for nut-free)
¼ cup coconut sugar (or brown sugar)
3 tbsp maple syrup
3 tbsp nut butter (peanut, almond, or cashew)
2 tbsp melted coconut oil (or vegan butter)
1 tsp vanilla extract
½ tsp baking soda
Pinch of sea salt
½ cup Enjoy Life vegan chocolate chips
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a small cast-iron skillet or 8x8 baking dish.
In a bowl, whisk together almond flour, coconut sugar, baking soda, and salt.
Stir in maple syrup, nut butter, melted coconut oil, and vanilla until a dough forms.
Fold in the Enjoy Life chocolate chips.
Press dough evenly into the skillet.
Bake for 18–22 minutes, until golden at the edges but soft and gooey in the center.
Let cool for 5 minutes, then serve warm with forks (and a scoop of vegan ice cream if you like ✨).
💡 Kelly’s Notes
Perfect for soccer weekends when time is tight — you can have dessert on the table in less than half an hour.
Add a sprinkle of flaky sea salt before baking for that bakery-style finish.
If you want extra crunch, fold in a handful of chopped walnuts or pecans.
This recipe doubles easily if you’re feeding a crowd (just bake in a bigger skillet or dish).
This skillet cookie is one of those desserts that makes everyone at the table happy — busy kids, tired parents, and anyone who loves melty chocolate chips. It’s quick, cozy, and a little bit indulgent… exactly what weekends are for.
