Easy Vegan Gingerbread Cookies Recipe

Ingredients

• 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 0.5 teaspoon baking soda
• 0.5 teaspoon ground ginger
• 0.5 teaspoon ground allspice
• 0.25 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 cup coconut oil, at room temperature
• 0.33 cup molasses
• 0.25 cup white sugar
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

1. Sift together flour, baking powder, cinnamon, baking soda, ginger, allspice, and salt in a mixing bowl.
2. In a separate bowl, beat coconut oil, molasses, and sugar with an electric mixer on medium speed until well combined. Add vanilla extract, then gradually stir in the flour mixture until a sticky dough forms (about 2 minutes). Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and chill for 2 hours.
3. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
4. Roll out the chilled dough on a lightly floured surface to 1/4-inch thickness. Use cookie cutters to cut out desired shapes, dipping the cutters in flour to prevent sticking. Place the cutouts on the prepared baking sheets.
5. Bake in the preheated oven until the cookies are firm, approximately 8 to 10 minutes. Let them cool briefly on the baking sheets before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
