Try these recipes for plant-based Christmas cookies to put together a cookie tray that everyone at your gathering can enjoy together this year!
Baked goods are definitely the way to my heart. If you feel the same way, hopefully these recipes will help you share the love with everyone at your gathering this holiday season. Some of these recipes are even gluten-free on their own, and most of the other ones can easily be made gluten-free just by substituting a 1-to-1 gluten-free flour blend. Everyone deserves delightful cookies at Christmas time, no matter what their particular dietary needs are, and if you’re the kind person who brings the cookies that everyone can enjoy, you’ll definitely be very much appreciated. Here are some of my favorite plant-based Christmas cookies that I’ve shared over the years.
Easy Recipes for Plant-Based Christmas Cookies
These ginger molasses cookies were my favorite cookie I made last year. They really just turn out to be picture perfect every time and are a great substitute if you’re looking for a plant-based version of your favorite ginger molasses cookies from Starbucks.
This basic plant-based shortbread recipe can be used to make an endless number of shortbread variations, but it’s also perfect just as-is and I would say it’s almost mandatory to make a simple, classic shortbread cookie a part of your Christmas cookie tray.
This pistachio shortbread is a lovely variation on the same shortbread recipe above. These cookies have a really elevated feel to them.
Salted chocolate chip cookies are a bit of a sophisticated take on a classic that’s perfect for a fancy cookie tray. The pink Himalayan salt that I used for these is so pretty.
This Ritz cracker bark is a quick and easy addition that you can make to add to cookie trays or dessert buffets. No one can resist picking up just a little shard of this when it’s put out in front of them.
An oldie but a goodie, this cranberry orange shortbread is so pretty and festive looking and the bright flavours are such a nice break from other heavier festive treats.
I’m a huge fan of candy-cane-flavoured anything so this chocolate-dipped shortbread is one of my personal favorites.
This healthy, 3-Ingredient fudge is a Creek Line neighborhood staple. Perfect any time of year, but why not at Christmas too?
Just realized that I have not made these healthy no-bake cookies in forever! Such a quick and easy recipe and fun to make with kids! You could definitely add some kind of holiday garnish before chilling them to make them extra Christmassy.
We make pumpkin pie at Christmas time, so why not pumpkin cookies? These pumpkin snickerdoodles were a favorite in our house this fall and would make a perfect addition to your Christmas cookie line-up.
