Vegan Sugar Cookies

When it comes to cookies, the classic chocolate chip tends to get a lot of attention. I get it, I like chocolate as much as the next person. But when the holidays roll around, sugar cookies quickly rise to the top of my list. These vegan sugar cookies are super easy to make and require just seven ingredients.

Typically sugar cookies are synonymous with heaps of white sugar and plenty of butter. What I love about this recipe is that it’s completely vegan and gluten-free. Yes, you heard me right! There’s no butter or wheat flour in these vegan sugar cookies. Coconut oil provides a decadent “buttery” feel without the dairy. And, rather than bleached white flour, this recipe calls for gluten free almond flour. This recipe also uses maple syrup for natural, unrefined sweetness, instead of sugar.

Despite the ingredient swaps, you can still follow the standard sugar cookie preparation process. Sugar cookie dough is quite soft after mixing, so it’ll need to be refrigerated so it can firm up before being sliced into rounds. For perfectly circular cookies, ensure you’re slicing with a sharp knife. A tip I learned a long time ago is to cut the dough using unflavored dental floss for the cleanest slices. Sounds weird, but I swear it works!

These vegan sugar cookies can be dressed up or down to suite your preferences. For the simplest route, slice them into rounds and leave them plain. They’re delicious as is. Want to get fancy and dress them up? Add simple toppings like drizzled dark chocolate or a sprinkle of chopped nuts.
