This is a sponsored post but I have used the products myself and the opinions and reviews are completely mine as I love these dairy free and vegan puddings.

As soon as I received them and I got my hands on vegan vanilla pudding, I decided to make cookies. Pudding cookies have been on my mind for a while and so this time they had to come live.

Therefore, I am grateful to moms meet and wayfare foods to give me the opportunity to try their vegan puddings which comes in 3 different flavors.

I gorged on all the three flavors of chocolate, butterscotch and vanilla. However, butterscotch was my favorite but vanilla is great for baking. I loved the fact that it could replace butter and sugar in my air fryer chocolate chip cookies.

Wayfare Foods was started by a family who were seeking healthier way to live. In their journey they discovered the potential of plant-based eating and started innovating new products in their company. Their goal is to help people live healthier and expand their plant based eating options.

Wayfare Puddings are made with a base of organic butter beans and organic oats.

These have smooth, creamy texture. It is perfectly sweetened but not too sweet so its delectable and smooth on the taste buds.

These are free of the top 10 allergens. Wayfare foods is giving special discounts of 20% to my readers on any of their products when you buy from their website. Simply use the code shareWF20.

So happy shopping and enjoy the abundant deliciousness that they have to offer.

I have made many air fryer recipes in savory forms, like spring rolls, crispy broccoli, carrots, okra, mushrooms and zucchini fries.

As another experiment, I made air fryer apple dumpling for my family and they lived it.

While experimenting I also made one of my very popular tempeh bacon recipe in an air fryer.

But baking these cookies in an air fryer was a total game changer.

These vegan chocolate chip cookies came out so perfect and I never had any leftovers inspite of making many batches of it.

My kids love these and it’s made with simple pantry staples.

I have used these easily available ingredients here which you may buy from any local grocery store. However, I have provided links to few of them here for your convenience.

Ingredients notes:

• Flaxmeal – it’s a great egg substitute and adds in fiber and healthy fats like omega 3 to this recipe.
• Pudding – I used the ready-made pudding from wayfare foods for which I partnered with moms meet. But you may use any other store-bought vanilla pudding. But make sure its not a mix and a ready to eat pudding.
• Maple syrup – I added just a little bit of it to balance out the sweetness. You may substitute it with brown sugar as well.
• Almond flour – it’s a gluten free healthy flour rich in protein, omega 3 and fiber. It is almonds in powdered form and fits into most diet types.
• Cornstarch – to make this recipe completely gluten free make sure to use gluten free cornstarch. I added its minimum quantity so as to make the binding easier for these cookies and also the outer layer is crispier.
• Chocolate chips – I used dairy free mini chocolate chips which are semi sweetened. If you use regular chocolate chips then make sure to start with ¼ cup + 2 tbsp. instead of ½ cup.

After going through the ingredients in details now you must read through the process carefully and get started with the baking.

I am sure you must already be having all the ingredients in your pantry and so I insist you to bake them and enjoy with your loved ones.

How to make Air Fryer Cookies

Firstly, in a mixing bowl, I combined soaked flaxmeal, pudding, maple syrup and vanilla. Then, I whipped it well. I kept it aside.

Secondly, I mixed in all the dry ingredients (except chocolate chips) in another bowl.

Next, I folded in dry ingredients into the wet ingredients and made a dough like batter.

Thereafter, I folded in chocolate chips to it.

Afterwards, with the help of a cookie scoop, I scooped cookies in the prepared air fryer basket. Then, I shaped them and turned it on at 300 degree for 20 minutes or until they were brown in color.

Lastly, I turned it off and took out the air fryer basket and let them cool completely.

As soon as they were firm and crispy my family simply grabbed the entire batch and finished them within minutes.

I was surprised that all was gone and it was an instant hit.

Therefore, my kids insisted me on making 2 more batches after that. So, by now, I must have baked these cookies in air fryer about 4-5 times.

Expert tips:

• Make sure to cut the parchment paper exactly as per your air fryer basket shape so that it does not fall over the cookies. If the parchment paper covers any part of the cookie it won’t brown from the edges.
• Depending on the size of your basket you can make this in 2 batches. Its ok for the batter to sit for a while.
• It is important to press the cookies slightly flat from its center with the back of a small bowl so that it bakes through inside and becomes crispier from outside.
