Vegan Peanut Butter Cookies instructions
- Add the sugar and vegan butter to a mixer and beat them together until creamy. Add the peanut butter and vanilla extract and mix in..
- In a separate bowl, add the flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt. Then add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix in (by hand, don’t use your electric mixer for this part). Test the cookie dough by trying to roll some into a ball. If it holds together perfectly then you’re good to go. If it crumbles and won’t hold together, then add in 1 Tbsp Soy Milk and test it again..
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Roll the dough into balls, and then roll them in sugar and place evenly onto a parchment lined baking tray. Flatten with a fork..
- Bake for 15 minutes until golden on top. They will be soft when they come out of the oven but will firm up as they cool. Enjoy.
