The best EGGLESS chocolate chip cookies recipe
I've been allergic to eggs my entire life and I'm always on the lookout for new no-egg recipes. These are best EGGLESS chocolate chip cookies EVER! You don't have to look any further. People always ask if they have eggs because they are so good. They can't even tell.

We make these several times a month at my house and now my 12 year old has taken over some of the duties and can make them by himself. (He usually leaves the cleaning up to me though!) We're working on that!

In fact, It's also great if you like to snack on the dough and I have to remind my kids that most people put eggs in the dough and you can't eat it. I think each of my three kids eat at least 2 cookies worth of dough.

The best EGGLESS Chocolate Chip Cookies Recipe
For those of of you that are just finding me and my recipes for the first time, I'll tell you a little about myself. I'm allergic to eggs and I don't like making things I can't eat. My mom discovered I was allergic to eggs when I was around 6 months old- so 40 years ago.
When I was young I really just stuck to Dairy Queen ice cream, Oreos, and Chips Ahoy, and M&Ms for my any sweet treats. Now I have more time and my kids are older to try out some recipes that I can eat. However, I still love Dairy Queen!!

If you’re like me. then you’re probably on the lookout for more recipes that are egg free. I hate finding a recipe and clicking on it and it has an egg in it!
I I started an eggless recipe board on my personal Pinterest page and then realized that I should probably link it to my blog.
It’s great finding recipes that are egg free and when I need one I can go look and eat everything in it. I pin on it every week because I’m ALWAYS on the lookout for new recipes.
I also have a EGG FREE RECIPE Facebook page that I just started, so there is only one follower right now, me! (Update: It’s over 1800 now!!) Go follow over there and I’ll post any good recipes I find!

Ingredients for No Egg Chocolate Chip Cookies
- Butter (1 stick)- I normally use salted butter because that's what I normally have in my refrigerator.
- White sugar
- Brown sugar
- All-purpuse flour
- Baking soda
- Vanilla extract- You can make your own. Here are the instructions to do that. It’s REALLY easy!
- Water
- Vegetable oil
- Chocolate chips
Directions for Egg Free Chocolate Chip Cookies
- Preheat the oven to 350F.
- Beat the butter with white and brown sugars for 1 to 2 minutes, until creamy with an hand mixer (This is the one I got for my wedding and it’s still going strong). I just got this mixer as a Christmas gift and LOVING it!
- Add in flour and baking soda. Mix.
- Add water, oil, and vanilla and mix.
- Fold in the chocolate chips with a wooden spoon.
- Drop by spoonful onto the baking sheet. I usually do about 1-2 tablespoons and put 12-16 on the cookie sheet.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes.
Chocolate Chip Cookie Tips
I’ve had a few people mention that their dough is dry and crumbly. First, it should not be crumbly and should look moist and stick together well. You may have to go back several times with the water to get it just right.
Just a quick friendly reminder: I would absolutely LOVE it if you could drop some feedback in the comment section for these mouthwatering blueberry muffins. A shiny 5-star rating would be awesome! Your ratings really make a difference for others looking for new and tasty recipes. Thanks a bunch!

Holly,
Thanks for this recipe! My 20 month old grandson has the top 8 allergies plus almonds and cats. I adapted this by using Melt butter (and I softened it in microwave for 20 seconds), Canola oil, Enjoy Life mini chocolate chips and Red Mill Gluten free flour. They are absolutely delicious!! The dough was so yummy!! I'm taking them to the beach next week!! Hopefully my adaptations will help others with multiple allergies!! Thank you!!
Thanks for sharing!
I tried his recipe and that too for the first time I made cookies! Since I am a pure vegetarian this was a blessing! They turned out delicious and the general review was that it was cafe quality! So I was thrilled! Thanks Holly!
Glad you liked them!
I added 1/2 a tsp salt to the batter and I doubled the amount of water and oil used. They turned out perfect!
The recipe is great!! Awesome cookies!!
OMG these are so amazing that I am going to share the link in facebook..I did add about 1/2 tsp of cinnamon though I find it boosts the taste of the chocolate , I do that in many recipes containing chocolate (all except white) ..Again thanks for the recipe ..It is a definitely one I will be making again.
Great tip on the cinnamon. I'll try it next time.
My cookie batch turned out gigantic even though I dropped them with a tbsp. The entire pan was full of a giant cookie haha but delicious nonetheless. Did anybody else have giant cookies?
Did you make these with margarine instead of butter? Sometimes this will happen if you use margarine, it spreads a lot more than butter does. If you do use margarine, you have to start with it cold.
I heard european butter works well. Less water content.
THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU! Our 2 year old Grandson is allergic to eggs but his 4 year old brother is not. I wanted a treat for the 2 year old so he wouldn't feel left out but these cookies are SO good everybody wants them...especially their Dad! It's a huge hit at Grandma;s house
and I can't wait to try your other eggless recipe's. What a game changer!!
My 8 year old egg-allergic kiddo made these mostly on her own (minus the oven part), and they turned out fantastic! We even swiped and ate some of the cookie dough! Thanks for a super manageable and yummy recipe, and a feeling of success to start off what I'm pretty sure will be a long career of baking! 🙂
So glad you found the recipe!
The cookies turn out soooo good. I've made them twice now. Really great recipe! ? Thanks
These are really good and super easy to make. Thank you for an egg-free recipe.
