These Chocolate Peppermint Vegan Macaroons are the perfect holiday cookie! They're vegan, gluten-free, and made with only 10 ingredients. Plus, they taste simply amazing!
Preheat the oven to 325ºF. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
Mix dry ingredients in a large mixing bowl. Add the wet ingredients into the bowl and then mix it all together.
Using a cookie scoop, form the dough into little domes. If they feel like they're falling apart a little, press them together with your hands. Repeat until no dough remains.
Bake on the center rack for 16 - 18 minutes, until the cookies are slightly browned. Remove and cool on a wire rack.
If using, melt chocolate chips either in the microwave or on a double boiler. Using a spoon, drizzle the chocolate over the cookies.

Notes
If you don't want to use quinoa, simply replace the 1/2 cup quinoa with an additional 1/2 cup coconut.
