Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Drop spoonfuls of dough 2 inches apart onto the prepared baking sheets.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.

Step 3

Beat coconut oil, brown sugar, and white sugar until creamy and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add applesauce and vanilla extract; mix well. Add flour, baking soda, and salt; mix until well combined. Fold in chocolate chips.
