Sugar Cookie Milk Free
Ingredients:
– 2 cups all-purpose flour
– 1 teaspoon baking powder
– 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
– 1/4 teaspoon salt
– 1/2 cup dairy-free margarine, softened
– 1 cup granulated sugar
– 1 flax egg (1 tablespoon ground flaxseed + 3 tablespoons water)
– 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
– Additional sugar for rolling (optional)
Instructions:
1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
3. In a separate mixing bowl, cream together the dairy-free margarine and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
4. Prepare the flax egg by mixing 1 tablespoon of ground flaxseed with 3 tablespoons of water in a small bowl. Let it sit for a few minutes until it thickens.
5. Add the flax egg and vanilla extract to the margarine and sugar mixture. Beat until well combined.
6. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until a soft dough forms.
7. If desired, scoop out about a tablespoon of dough and roll it into a ball. Roll the ball in sugar before placing it on the prepared baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining dough, spacing the cookies about 2 inches apart.
8. Using the bottom of a glass, gently flatten each cookie to about 1/4-inch thickness.
9. Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden.
10. Remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the cookies cool for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
These Sugar Cookie Milk Free treats are best enjoyed fresh out of the oven with a glass of your favorite dairy-free milk alternative. The combination of the soft, slightly crunchy texture and the delicate sweetness makes them a versatile snack for any time of day. Store any leftovers in an airtight container to maintain their freshness for several days, although we’re sure they’ll disappear quickly!
Experiment with adding a sprinkle of cinnamon or a pinch of nutmeg to the dough for a cozy twist on this classic recipe. You can also top the cookies with dairy-free icing or chocolate drizzle for a more indulgent treat. However you choose to enjoy them, these dairy-free sugar cookies are sure to become a household favorite for all to savor.
