These vegan apple pie crumble cookies channel all of the goodness of traditional apple crumb pie in an adorable, handheld size. They feature flaky rounds of vegan pie crust, sweet and tender cooked apples, and a buttery streusel topping. The end result is an individually portioned mini-pie and cookie hybrid that’s perfect for holiday gatherings, cookie swaps or boxes, or potlucks. This is my season of handheld desserts. It begins with today’s vegan apple pie crumble cookies. Imagine this: the goodness of vegan…

These are the best soft and chewy vegan peanut cookies! Their puffy shape and tender interior is irresistable. Creamy peanut butter is the main ingredient in an otherwise simple ingredient list, and a touch of sea salt is the perfect finishing touch. ‘Tis the season of cookies. This month, there will be festive, seasonal cookies aplenty. There will be sugar cookies, thumbprint cookies, cranberry almond biscotti, and vegan molasses ginger cookies. I love these holiday cookies so much, and of course they needn’t…

Vegan buttermilk is the trick to making perfect vegan muffins, cakes, pancakes, cornbread, biscuits, and other quick breads. Learn how to make it with this simple recipe! I love any and all of the baked goods that qualify as quick breads. These include muffins, scones, cornbread, waffles and pancakes, banana bread and zucchini bread, many cakes, brownies, cookies, and more. All of these tasty breads use chemical leavening. They rise because of the chemical reactions that happen when a leavening agent—usually baking powder,…

This is a plant-based version of traditional thumbprint cookies! The cookies are buttery and tender, and they have a sweet pocket of jam in the center. They’re also totally dairy-free. I made these vegan thumbprint cookies a couple weeks before Christmas. I had every intention of posting the recipe on Christmas eve, in tandem with making the cookies again myself and bringing them to my mom’s apartment. We know how that went. But one of the silver linings of Quarantine Christmas 2021 is…

An old-fashioned oatmeal raisin cookie can’t be beat! These vegan oatmeal raisin cookies have perfect, chewy texture. They’re made with wholesome rolled oats, and they’re perfect with a glass of non-dairy milk. The holiday season is often a time for elaborate cooking and baking. It’s my busiest time of year in the kitchen for sure, and I tend to save my most ambitious desserts for November and December. In spite of this, or maybe because of it, I like to take breaks from…

These soft, chewy vegan breakfast cookies are studded with grated carrots, plump raisins, and rolled oats. They’re wholesome, filling, and delicious! They’re also freezer friendly and can be made ahead for breakfasts on-the-go. I’ve always loved the idea of a breakfast cookie. A freshly baked cookie, full of ingredients that are wholesome enough to qualify as a sensible breakfast? Sign me up. Until now, however, breakfast cookies have been more appealing in theory than in practice. I’ve tried so many different combinations, and…

As I was sitting down to write this post I thought I’d make a joke about how it was the first dessert I’d posted in ages that isn’t cake. But then I realized that of course whoopie pies are cake. Just small cakes, shaped into a sandwich with their icing. So the cake parade continues…

Baking tends to get a lot of attention in the weeks leading up to the winter holidays, yet it’s often overlooked in January. Perhaps this is because the holidays are regarded as a time to celebrate and indulge, while the arrival of a new year prompts a lot of focus on healthful eating. In my…

Full disclosure: I am extremely partial to the humble cookie. To me, there is nothing better than one fresh out of the oven with the chocolate all melted – and nothing worse than being tricked into thinking that a cookie has choc chips but actually has dried fruit.
