Healthy Sugar Cookies
These healthy sugar cookies are soft, chewy, thick, low sugar, and whole grain!
Servings: 10 cookies
Ingredients
- 3/4 cup spelt flour or whole wheat pastry or all purpose flour (or try these Keto Sugar Cookies)
- 1/4 tsp baking powder
- 1/4 tsp salt (just under level)
- 3/8 tsp baking soda
- 1/4 cup white sugar or sucanat, coconut sugar, or evaporated cane juice (or xylitol for a sugar-free version)
- 1/2 tsp pure vanilla extract
- 1 1/2 tbsp milk of choice
- 1/4 cup butter or coconut oil
Instructions
- Healthy Sugar Cookies Recipe: 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!) These cookies will keep at least four days, in a lidded plastic container. As a general rule, you should store soft cookies in plastic containers and crispy cookies in glass ones.
