How to Make Healthy Christmas Cookies Vegan And Gluten Free
- Cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) vegan butter, 1/2 cup granulated sugar, and 1/4 cup maple syrup in a large bowl until light and fluffy.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 cup Jay Robb vegan whey protein powder (or substitute with 1/2 cup almond flour for non-vegan version).
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Stir in 2 cups almond flour until a dough forms. If the dough is too dry, add 1-2 tablespoons of plant-based milk (e.g., almond milk).
- Form the dough into a disc, wrap in plastic wrap, and chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
- Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
- On a lightly floured surface (using almond flour), roll out the chilled dough to 1/4-inch thickness.
- Use Christmas cookie cutters to cut out shapes and place them onto the prepared baking sheets.
- Bake for 7-9 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown.
- Remove from oven and let cookies cool on the baking sheets for 10 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Once cooled, frost with your favorite vegan cream cheese frosting.
