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!

My daughter with an egg allergy wants a cookie cake for her birthday! Any tips on using this recipe to make one big cookie?
Here's this recipe that may help. https://www.keepinglifesane.com/eggless-chocolate-chip-cookie-bars/
Amazing! Crispy on outside but soft and chewy on inside… family approved!
Perfect last minute find!
I added a little extra oil and water as the dough was a tad crumbly. I also added some cinnamon and nutmeg for added flavor. EVERYONE devoured them when I brought them out. Nothing left haha. Thanks!!
Absolutely love these cookies!!! My new go to. I looked up this recipe because of course I was out of eggs. But honestly me and my boyfriend loved them and will continue to use this recipe! THANK YOU!!!!!
After searching for eggless recipes for my 11 yo who is allergic since birth, I have finally found one worth making. And my daughter will actually eat them! I am not sure why anyone gave bad reviews. I always use the best butter and other ingredients which makes a difference so maybe their butter was not good quality. I would tell anyone that gave negative reviews to try again. Can't wait to try the other eggless recipes. Thank you Holly for your efforts in sharing with us the good results of your persistence as you went down rabbit holes with other eggless recipes like myself!
These turned out so yummy! Thank you for sharing your recipe. I found that leaving them in the oven a little longer (10 more mins) made then crispier. Which I like. Overall really good. Thank you.
Are they suppose to be a soft cookie?
Thanks for giving us something new to try but unfortunately I didn’t like the cookies at all. Tried them also with pecans. Still almost no taste except for the actual chips. Didn’t realize eggs made such a difference.
@Cathy,
Im so shocked, I absolutely LOVE these cookies!! Each to their own! X
My fav cc cookies recipe was halted due to no eggs! Found this buddy, subbed coconut oil & added butterscotch chips - they turned out great. Needed twice the water but delish
These cookies came out great, best chocolate chip cookies ever. I did have to add a few more Tbsp of water, but they were great.
