These vegan gingerbread cookies are a great recipe to make during the festive season!
They’re all raw, gluten free and are ideal for sharing with family or friends to relax, unwind and eat sweet treats.
Here’s a video recipe:
Traditional gingerbread cookie recipes usually require eggs, butter, wheat flour and refined sugar.
Well, you can make them without any of these and still end up with vegan gingerbread cookies! Plus, they are wildly delicious!
These vegan gingerbread cookies are chewy and have a yummy sweet and spicy flavour.
You can use gingerbread cookie cutters, and all manner of different shapes, or even roll then into balls.
If you have a dehydrator, you can dehydrate them overnight to make them taste crunchy and warm!
If you don’t – you can eat these raw vegan cookies as they are, or place them in the fridge for 4 hours to make them set more and have a firmer consistency.
Why not treat your family and friends to these tasty cookies? You can serve them with warm nut milk or a chocolate milk, where you mix nut milk with carob powder.

Could I substitute shredded coconut for the walnuts? I’ve been reacting to nuts – especially walnuts and also cashews. 🙁
Yes, of course! If you are ok with seeds, you can also use them.
