Miso Chocolate Chip Cookies

Vegan Miso Chocolate Chip Cookies Recipe

Miso paste adds an incredible richness to these unbelievable cookies! They’re perfectly sweet and also have that lovely chewy texture you want from a cookie.

Honestly, these cookies are unreal.

Notes:

  • It’s best to leave the butter out to soften slightly before creaming with the sugar, otherwise you risk over-mixing the butter.
  • If you can’t find light brown sugar, you can try substituting with demerara sugar.
  • The cookies will harden as they cool, but they should still keep their lovely chewy texture.
  • We use white miso paste, which is sweeter and slightly more mellow than darker miso pastes, but you can substitute either red or brown miso paste if that’s all you can find.
Vegan Miso Chocolate Chip Cookies Recipe

Miso Chocolate Chip Cookies

Serves: 8 cookies Prep Time: 10 mins Cooking Time: 15-16 mins 15-16 mins
Nutrition facts: 200 calories 20 grams fat

Ingredients

  • 1 tbsp ground flaxseed
  • 120g (4.2oz) unsalted vegan butter or margarine, see notes
  • 70g (2.5oz) granulated sugar
  • 70g (2.5oz) light brown sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 tbsp white miso paste
  • 200g (7.1oz) plain flour
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp bicarbonate of soda, (baking soda in the US)
  • 160g (5.6oz) 70% dark chocolate, chopped into chips

Method

  1. Combine the ground flaxseed with 1.5 tbsp of water in a small bowl to create your flax egg. Leave to one side to thicken for a minute or so.
  2. Cream together the vegan butter and the sugar in a large mixing bowl by stirring with a wooden spoon until they’re combined.
  3. Next add the flax egg, vanilla extract and miso paste. Stir gently to combine and be careful not to over-mix.
  4. Now add the flour, baking powder, bicarbonate of soda and most of the dark chocolate (save a handful of chips to add on top of the cookie balls). Stir to combine, then shape the dough into 8 evenly-sized balls.
  5. Place the remaining chocolate chips on top of the balls and push them into the dough, then transfer to a tray and chill in the fridge for 30 minutes. This will create a chewier texture.
  6. Preheat the oven to 160°C fan / 350°F.
  7. When they’re ready, add the cookies to 2 large baking trays lined with baking paper (be sure to give them enough space so they don’t touch when they flatten out) and bake for 15-16 minutes or until golden around the edges.
  8. Leave the cookies to cool for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack and leave to cool for at least a further 15-20 minutes before eating. These will last for 2-3 days somewhere cool in an airtight container.

Delicious cookies! I reduced the miso to 1.5 tbsp as the butter I was using is quite salty and they came out perfectly. I also reduced the chocolate to 100g but that’s just because it was the only bar I had in the house! So tasty and easy, I’ll definitely be using this recipe regularly!
