Ingredients

Print

• ½ cup + 2 tablespoon almond butter (smooth, natural)
• 1 teaspoon molasses
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 6 tablespoons non-dairy milk
• ½ cup brown sugar (can sub coconut sugar)
• Pinch of nutmeg
• ½ teaspoon baking soda
• 2 cups almond flour
• ⅓ cup tapioca flour
• ⅔ cup non-dairy chocolate chips
• 1 cup vegan marshmallows

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Prep the Oven & Pan: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. This will prevent the cookies from sticking and make cleanup a breeze.
2. Mix the Wet Ingredients: In a medium bowl, combine the almond butter, molasses, vanilla extract, brown sugar, non-dairy milk and nutmeg. Stir until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
3. Whisk in the Dry Ingredients: Add in the almond flour, tapioca flour, and baking soda. Mix until you have a dough that starts to come together. Don’t overmix; a few lumps are okay!
4. Add the Good Stuff: Gently fold in the non-dairy chocolate chips and vegan marshmallows. Be careful not to break up the marshmallows too much.
5. Shape and Bake: Scoop the dough onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between each cookie. These cookies won’t spread a ton, but they will puff up.
6. Bake to Perfection: Bake for about 11-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden, and the marshmallows are gooey and melted.
7. Cooling Time: Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. This is the hardest part, believe me!
8. Enjoy: Dig in and enjoy your delicious Gluten-Free S’mores Cookies.

Tips & Variations

I find even small changes can make a big difference with this recipe. Here are a couple of my favorite tips:

• Almond Butter Matters: Use smooth, natural almond butter for the best texture and flavor.
• Marshmallow Magic: For extra gooeyness, add a few extra marshmallows on top of the cookies during the last few minutes of baking.
• Spice It Up: Don’t be afraid to experiment with different spices! A pinch of cinnamon or a dash of cardamom can add a warm, cozy feel.

Serving Suggestions

These Gluten-Free S’mores Cookies are perfect on their own, but if you want to elevate the treat experience, consider serving them alongside:

• A glass of cold, non-dairy milk.
• A scoop of vegan ice cream.
• Pair it with another fantastic dessert like my Easy Cheesy Ground Beef Casserole (just kidding!), but feel free to explore my dessert recipes category.
