Healthy Tagalongs Vegan Gluten-Free

Course Dessert
Prep Time 10 minutes
Cook Time 25 minutes
Total Time 1 hour
Servings 5 cookies

Ingredients

Shortbread

  • 1 cup almond flour
  • 2.5 tablespoons maple syrup
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Filling + Coating

  • 5 teaspoons natural creamy peanut butter
  • 1/2 cup vegan dark chocolate chips melted with 1 teaspoon coconut oil

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 250°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a medium bowl, mix almond flour, maple syrup, and vanilla extract until a thick dough forms.
  • Roll about 1.5 tablespoons of the dough into a ball, then flatten it into a cookie shape using your hands. Press your knuckle gently into the center of each cookie to create an indent. Arrange the cookies on the prepared baking sheet.
  • Bake for 25-27 minutes, then let them cool completely.
  • Once cooled, fill each cookie indent with 1 teaspoon of natural creamy peanut butter. Place the cookies in the freezer for 20-30 minutes until the peanut butter firms up.
  • Meanwhile, melt the dark chocolate and coconut oil in the microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring well between each round.
  • Take the cookies out of the freezer and generously coat each one with the melted chocolate. Place them back on the parchment paper or a wire rack, as you prefer.
  • Return the cookies to the freezer to allow the chocolate to harden completely, about 5 minutes.
  • Once firm, remove the cookies from the freezer and enjoy!

Notes

Store your Tagalongs in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 7 days, or in the freezer for up to 30 days for lasting freshness.
