White Bean Cookie Dough

As far as I can tell, almost everyone loves cookie dough, right?

Cookie dough seems like a part of the Americans’ childhood memory, which I learned from a couple of online videos because I’m a Taiwanese.

In fact, I wasn’t sure if it’s a thing until I watched people putting raw cookie dough into their mouths. And, believe me, I had no intention to imitate that because I was afraid of the raw flavor from the normal cookie dough batter.

But after trying to make cookie dough from chickpeas and totally falling in love with it, I’m now officially addicted to cookie dough, the vegan version of course.

It not only proves again that we don’t need any animal products to make delicious food but also erases the concerns of uncooked eggs because they’re not there.

Ingredients You Need

This cookie dough is made with only 6 easy-to-find ingredients and I’ll say it’s definitely on the healthish side but that is just a plus.

• White Kidney Beans: also know as Cannellini beans. They are super large in the “bean” category with a creamy texture that is perfect for making cookie dough.
• Nut Butter: enriches the whole texture and flavor. I love to use almond butter for this cookie dough for the subtle nutty taste. You can try it with any kind of nut butter to suit your own taste.
• Maple Syrup: adds the right sweetness for our cookie dough. You can also use other liquid sweeteners such as date syrup, brown rice syrup, etc.
• Vanilla Extract: you don’t need much of it but you do need it to make the whole thing taste like cookie dough, seriously.
• Oat Flour: adjust the texture to make it scoopable and thick but still soft.
• Dark Chocolate Chips: they’re like a must in cookie dough, I think. And you know I’ll grab every chance to add chocolate chips to my food. 😉

I use canned white kidney beans because I couldn’t fine the dry ones in Taiwan and canned beans make the whole process much easier (lazier). But if you want to use your own cooked white beans, I totally root for that. Either way, it will be delicious.

How to Make White Bean Cookie Dough

This white bean cookie dough is super easy to make. And since there’s no baking involved, it should take less than 10 minutes. (I was about to say 5 but I don’t want to give you pressure. Heyo!)

1. Drain out the water from the white kidney beans and give them a rinse.
2. Blend all ingredients except for the chocolate in a food processor.
3. Add more maple syrup or water to your taste and to adjust the consistency.
4. Stir in the chocolate chips. EAT!

You can enjoy as soon as you finish, but I personally love to let it sit in the fridge for a while if I have time. The flavor will go deeper and I love it a bit cold.

This white bean cookie dough is creamy, nutty, and super good for snacking. Thanks to the beans, you’re not only enjoying the taste but also getting proteins and nutrients.

This is also a great snack for you if you or your kids don’t like beans because you won’t taste them at all while getting the nutrients with delicious taste

If you don’t have white beans, you can also use butter beans instead. And if you’re a chickpea lover and always got cooked chickpeas in your fridge or cabinet, you can make my Chickpea Cookie Dough.
