Vegan Organic Matcha Cookies with Dark Chocolate Chips

Try these delicious vegan cookies made with organic matcha and dark chocolate chips. Crisp around the edges and soft in the centre, they’re the perfect sweet treat to enjoy alongside your matcha ritual.

Ingredients (makes 10 cookies):

100 g organic margarine (70% fat), at room temperature
40 g organic white sugar
50 g organic brown sugar
50 g organic unsweetened apple purée
30 g organic ground almonds
10 g Organic Ceremonial Matcha
A pinch of organic salt
160 g organic T55 flour
1/2 tsp organic baking powder
75 g organic dairy-free dark chocolate chips

Method:

Step 1: Make the dough

Cream the margarine: In a bowl, beat the margarine until smooth and creamy. Add the white sugar and brown sugar, then mix until fluffy.
Add the wet ingredients: Add the apple purée, ground almonds, matcha and salt. Mix until fully combined.

Step 2: Add the dry ingredients

Add flour and baking powder: Gently fold in the flour and baking powder using a spatula. Mix just until you get a smooth dough.
Add the chocolate chips: Fold in the dairy-free dark chocolate chips.

Step 3: Shape the cookies

Shape the dough: Scoop about 50 g of dough per cookie and roll into balls. Place them on a baking tray lined with parchment paper.
Flatten slightly: Gently press each ball down with a flat surface (for example, the lid of a jar).

Step 4: Bake

Bake: Bake at 170°C for 14 to 18 minutes, depending on how soft you like your cookies.
Cool: Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool on a wire rack.

Tip:

To avoid lumps, sift the matcha before adding it. These cookies are best enjoyed the same day, but they’ll keep well in an airtight container.

Nutritional note:

Matcha adds antioxidants and a distinctive green tea aroma, while dark chocolate chips bring a rich, indulgent touch—without compromising the vegan spirit.
