Vegan Cookie Recipes

Vegan Cookie Recipes taste just as delicious and decadent as the non-vegan ones, and are both healthier and cruelty free. Vegan substitutes such as soya milk, vegan chocolate and vegan margarine are used in place of dairy products.

Here are some of my favourite vegan cookie recipes adapted from Linda McCartney On Tour:

Vegan Cookie Recipes - Poppy Seeds Cookies

Ingredients

2.5 fl oz soya milk
4oz poppy seeds
2 oz vegan margarine

Method:

Heat the milk in a saucepan until almost boiling, then remove the pan from the heat, and soak the poppy seeds in the milk for 15 minutes

Whisk the vegan margarine with the caster sugar in a bowl until it is light and fluffy. Mix in the melted chocolate, spices, currants and the poppy seed mixture.
Sift in the flour and baking powder and knead to until the dough is pliable. Roll the dough into 24 small balls.
Place on a greased baking sheet and press down with a fork to create a cookie shape.
Bake the cookies at 350F for 20 minutes until crisp. Allow to cool on a wire rack.
Dip half of each cookie in melted chocolate and allow to harden before serving

Vegan Cookie Recipes - Chocolate Crescent Cookies

5oz plain flour, sifted
2oz unrefined caster sugar
pinch sea salt
3oz vegan margarine
2oz toasted almonds, chopped
2oz vegan chocolate, grated
2 tbsp soya milk

Heat the oven to 325F.
Sift the flour with the sugar and sea salt into a large bowl.
Rub the vegan margarine into the mixture until it resembles breadcrumbs.
Add the almonds and the chocolate, and continue to work the mixture until it forms a smooth dough adding a little milk if necessary.
Thinly roll out the dough onto a surface lightly dusted with flour, and cut into shapes using a cookie cutter.
Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, then allow to cool on a wire rack.
