Instructions
-
Preheat oven to 360 degrees F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
-
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the dairy-free butter and brown sugar.
-
Add the egg and vanilla extract, mixing the ingredients until light and fluffy.
-
In another large mixing bowl, combine the gluten-free flour, ground pecans, rolled oats, salt, baking soda, and baking powder.
-
Pour the dry ingredients into the bowl with the wet ingredients. Stir until combined, then fold in the chocolate chips and chopped pecans.

Portion out the cookie dough onto the parchment-lined baking sheets using a cookie scoop or heaping tablespoon. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until cooked through and golden brown around the edges. Let cool on the pan, then enjoy.
Recipe Notes
- To make ground pecans (aka pecan meal or pecan flour), add ¾ cup of pecans to a mini food processor or blender cup. Process in short bursts to create a coarse flour. Do not process too long, or you will end up with pecan butter.
