We created this list of super-easy vegan cookie recipes that use only three main ingredients! There’s no stress and no need for cruelly obtained ingredients from animals—just pure cookie goodness. (Many of these three-ingredient vegan cookie recipes are gluten-free as well.)

1. Pumpkin Oat Cookies

With just oats, organic pure pumpkin purée, and stevia, you’ll be on your way to pumpkin cookie heaven.

2. Easy Sandwich Cookies

You have the option of filling these cookies with peanut butter or coconut crème. Or you can make some of each.

3. Coconut Cookies

Oats, bananas, and shredded coconut are all you need for these, which we suggest dipping in hot tea. So delicious.

4. Two-Ingredient Cookies

Make them with our magic number by adding chocolate chips, dried fruit or nuts, or sunflower seeds. Get creative!

5. The World’s Easiest Cookies

What’s in the world’s easiest cookies, you ask? Almond flour, maple syrup, and vanilla extract.

6. No Bake Oatmeal Cookies

They’re almost too good to be true—but not quite.

7. Peanut Butter Cookies

Peanut butter (of course), medjool dates, and coconut flour constitute the holy trinity of this recipe.

8. Cinnamon Cookies

Cinnamon tastes even better during the holidays. We don’t know why—it just does.

9. Meringue Cookies

If you haven’t baked with aquafaba yet, here’s your chance to discover the magic.

10. Fudgy Cookies

Add sea salt to take this recipe over the edge of deliciousness.

11. Sunflower Seed and Date Cookies

Who knew that dates could do so much? They’re great for naturally sweetening baked goods.

12. Cookie Dough

Whip up this cookie dough in no time at all. The recipe is for one person, so double or triple as needed!

13. Avocado Chocolate Cookies

The recipe-maker claims that you can’t taste the avocado, which is used for binding. We can’t wait to find out for ourselves!
