Healthy Sugar Cookies

From Chocolate Covered Katie

Healthy Sugar Cookies!

• 3/4 cup ww pastry flour (or white or a gf mix like Arrowhead Mills)
• 1/4 tsp baking powder
• 1/4 tsp salt (just under level)
• 1/4 tsp plus 1/8 tsp baking soda
• 1/4 cup white sugar (or sucanat or coconut sugar)
• 1/2 tsp pure vanilla extract
• 1 and 1/2 tablespoons nondairy milk of choice
• 1/4 cup vegan butter sub, such as Earth Balance (Some readers say you can use coconut oil, but I haven’t tried it.)

Combine dry ingredients and mix very, very well. In a separate bowl, melt the vegan butter, then stir in vanilla and milk. Pour dry into wet and mix again. Form balls or roll out (not too thin), then use a cookie cutter to make shapes. If you want soft cookies, you’ll need to get the dough very cold. (So roll the balls first, then fridge until cold.)  Cook in a 325F preheated oven for 9 minutes. They will look very underdone when you take them out, but that’s ok!! Just let them cool for 5 minutes before touching. (I know it’s hard!)


At LEAST double this recipe.
