Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1 cup fresh blueberries
  • 1/2 cup plant-based butter, softened
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour (or gluten-free flour blend)
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon natural gelling agent
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup white sugar
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (natural)
  • 2 tablespoons plant-based milk

Instructions

  1. Prepare and Preheat: Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line your baking sheet with parchment paper to ensure easy removal and cleanup.
  2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour (or gluten-free blend), baking soda, natural gelling agent, and salt until evenly combined. Set aside.
  3. Cream Butter and Sugars: In a large bowl, use a mixer to beat the plant-based butter with white and brown sugars until fluffy and pale. This step adds air, helping keep the cookies soft.
  4. Add Wet Ingredients: Stir in the plant-based milk and vanilla extract (natural) until smooth, then gradually add the dry mixture. Mix until just combined to avoid overworking the dough.
  5. Fold in Blueberries: Gently fold in fresh blueberries, taking care not to burst them and turn your dough purple. This preserves the delightful bursts of fruit in each cookie.
  6. Scoop and Bake: Using a cookie scoop or spoon, place dollops of dough about 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes, or until edges are lightly golden while centers remain soft.
  7. Cool and Enjoy: Allow cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack. This ensures they firm up just right while staying tender inside.

Notes

  • Use fresh blueberries for the best texture and flavor bursts compared to frozen ones.
  • Don’t overmix dough to maintain a tender, chewy cookie.
  • Scoop evenly sized cookies to ensure even baking and consistent softness.
  • If your kitchen is warm, chilling dough for 30 minutes helps prevent spreading.
  • Remove cookies when edges are set but centers still look slightly soft for chewy perfection.
