Vegan Ginger Cookies

Recipe #227114 | 40 min | 10 min prep | 1 batch (Change Servings)

RECIPE BY: Kimke

These cookies are the ultimate ginger cookies with a nice spicy bite from the ginger and a rich molasses body. That they happen to be vegan is just a bonus. From Vegan with a Vengence!

Ingredients

  • tablespoons coarse sugar (turbinado or demerrera or "sanding" sugar)
  • cups flour
  • teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 2 1/2 tablespoons ground ginger
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cloves
  • 1/2 cup canola oil
  • 1/4 cup molasses
  • 1/4 cup soymilk
  • cup sugar
  • teaspoon vanilla
  • Directions

    1. 1
      Sift dry ingredient (except sugar) into a bowl and set aside.
    2. 2
      In a large bowl combine wet ingredients, including sugar and whisk or beat on medium until blended.
    3. 3
      Stir in the pre-sifted dry ingredients and mix until well combined.
    4. 4
      The dough will be quite sticky and you may need to dampen your hands to work with it. Roll the dough into little balls (about 1 Tablespoon) and flatten out to your liking.
    5. 5
      The thinner the cookie the crisper it will be - a slightly thicker cookie will yield a crunch on the edges and a slightly chewy interior.
    6. 6
      Press the coarse sugar onto the tops of the cookies and bake about 10 minutes at 350 on a greased cookie sheet.

    I was expecting more of this recipe. I think that it is better to use fresh grated ginger instead of ground ginger. I also think they are not really chewy. So next time I will bake them maybe at lower temperature. Over all they taste good and are not too sweet.

    Oh my, these cookies are awesome! My DH cannot keep his hands off of them. Very easy to make, very delicious and makes the whole house smell wonderful. The cloves and molasses give the cookies a nice bite and the texture is really perfect! Thanks for a great recipe!
