Ingredients
  

For the Batter
  • 2 cups Gluten-Free Flour Provides structure without wheat; substitute with a 1:1 gluten-free blend.
  • 1 cup Brown Sugar Adds moisture and depth; swap with coconut sugar for a lighter sweetness.
  • 1/2 cup Granulated Sugar Creates a crisp edge while maintaining chewiness; can be replaced with erythritol for lower calories.
  • 1/2 cup Unsalted Butter Contributes richness and flavor; use coconut oil for a dairy-free treat.
  • 1 large Egg Binds the mix together; for a vegan option, use flaxseed meal mixed with water.
  • 2 teaspoons Vanilla Extract Enhances flavor; skipping it will compromise taste.
  • 1 cup Chocolate Chips Adds sweetness and texture; opt for dairy-free chocolate for a vegan touch.
