Equipment
Scale
Wooden spatula from Forest Decor
Ice cream scooper with trigger
Simple hand mixer
Ingredients
½cupVegetable oilI used sunflower
¾cupDark brown sugar
½cupGranulated sugar
⅓cupBlueberriesfrozen, thaw, without liquid
1tspVanilla extract
2+½cupsAll-purpose flouror GF flour blend
1TbspLemon zest (grated)
1tspBaking soda
½tspSalt
1 +½cupsWhite chocolate chips
Instructions
In a large bowl, combine oil, sugars, frozen but thawed blueberries, and vanilla. Use a hand mixer to beat together on low speed for 2 minutes until well emulsified.
Stir in the flour, lemon zest, salt, and baking soda until completely incorporated. The mixture should be very thick but still soft. If too stiff, add 1-2 Tablespoons of non-dairy milk.
Fold in the white chocolate chips.
Cover and allow to chill for at least 30 minutes to prevent spreading.
Preheat oven to 375°F/190C. Line baking sheets with parchment.
Scoop 2 Tbsp amounts of dough. Roll into balls and place 2-3 inches apart on a lined baking sheet.
If you want pillowy, soft cookies, don't flatten them. If you want chewy, thinner ones, flatten them with a small glass, at most 1 inch thick.
Bake for 8-12 minutes until just barely golden brown around the edges. I need 12 minutes in my non-fan oven to get them perfect.
Remove from the oven and cool them on the baking sheet for at least 10 minutes before moving to a cooling rack. Cookies will puff up more in the oven and collapse slightly as they cool.

Notes
IMPORTANT: I used frozen, thawed blueberries and only measured the berry part and not the liquid part.
Add 1-2 tbsp/15-30ml blueberry liquid to thin the consistency if it is too stiff. Reasons for that could be that you use homemade apple sauce or the measurements are off.
