How to Make Vegan Sugar Cookies

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Cream together 1 cup vegan margarine and ¾ cup vegan sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Add 1 flax egg (1 tbsp flaxseed meal + 3 tbsp water), 1 tsp vanilla extract, and ½ tsp almond extract. Mix well.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour, 1 tsp baking powder, ½ tsp baking soda, and ¼ tsp salt.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
  6. In a small bowl, combine 2 tbsp vegan sugar and 2 tbsp ground cinnamon.
  7. Form the dough into 1-inch balls.
  8. Roll each ball in the cinnamon sugar mixture until fully coated.
  9. Place the cookies onto ungreased baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches between each cookie.
  10. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown.
  11. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
