Vegan Cookie Recipes Without Oil (2024)

Vegan Cookie Recipes Without Oil! That is correct, no oil or vegan butter is used to make any of these recipes! Only nuts and seeds and chocolate are used for the fat and richness for each recipe. But don’t let that fool you, these are every bit as decadent as all the traditional cookie recipes that rely heavily on unhealthy oils and butters. Many gluten-free options as well!

VEGAN COOKIE RECIPES WITHOUT OIL

I didn’t earn the title Cookie Monster years ago for no reason. Creating amazing vegan cookie recipes oil-free has always been one of my favorite things to do and it is so much fun in vegan baking. My hubby has joked many times that I could run a blog solely on cookie recipes, LOL. Perhaps it’s a passion of mine because I love eating them so much, haha.

Naturally when we think of cookies, we think sugar, butter or oil and not very healthy, right? Well, like I proved on these 15 Vegan Muffin Recipes Without Oil post, you don’t need oil for successful baking. You don’t even need vegan butter. That post got a lot of love and it seemed only fitting to do a vegan cookie recipes collection showing you all my tips for super decadent, fudgy, crispy and buttery cookies.

WHAT CAN I USE IN PLACE OF BUTTER OR OIL FOR COOKIES?

That is right, NONE of these recipes rely on oil or butter to make them. Additionally, my vegan cookie recipes stand up to any made with oil or butter and white sugar. In fact, many of my cookie recipes are your favorites you’ve ever had, even compared to the ones you grew up on. Cookies do require some differences than muffins though. To create delicious oil-free vegan cookies, you do need fat and richness.

Without fat, cookies take on a muffin/cakey texture and will not be fudgy or get crispy edges. Oil-free does not mean fat-free. It just simply means we are using full whole food fats instead of processed oils. I use fats for richness and texture in my cookies and they will please the pickiest of eaters. Some of my main fats I use are almond flour, nut butters and seeds. Be sure to review my guide on How to Cook and Bake Without Oil for more tips.

There is a cookie for everybody here. Some made with oat flour, brown rice flour,white rice flour, almond flour, oats, different starches, you name it.

5. VEGAN LEMON COOKIES (also called puffs)

“I severely underestimated just how light and fluffy these cookies could be. Eating gluten free for nearly a decade, I’ve grown accustomed to denser, heavier baked goods. But these cookies are remarkable.I’ve made them a few times now and find something new to appreciate each time. From the cloud-like fluffiness, to the zesty lemon freshness, to the wonderful texture, these cookies are straight delicious.” – John

“These are amazing–and healthy!! Super quick and easy, and a recipe that I’m adding to my no-fail go-to recipe book. 🙂 I’m no master-baker (ha!), but if I can figure out the chocolate kisses, anyone can (note: when making a ziplock piping bag, allow the chocolate to cool just a tad and cut a teeny hole. My first kisses looked like an oil spill!). So yummy and pretty–the first batch of these went straight into holiday gift bags for the neighbors.” – Jen
