Enjoy these delicious eggnog cookies during the holiday season

We are working with our friends at So Delicious today to create these vegan eggnog Snickerdoodle Cookies using their Coconutmilk Holiday Nog. So Delicious' seasonal Coconutmilk Beverage has proved me wrong. When I went vegan, I assumed that eggnog would be something I could never enjoy again.

The cookies are as soft as our Vegan Sugar Cookies and Classic Snickerdoodles, but with the flavor of eggnog. They're made with Coconutmilk Holiday Nog from So Delicious, which is free of dairy and egg yolks. This is the perfect eggnog recipe for vegan eggnog fans!

Ingredients you'll need

• Flour :We only tested this recipe with all-purpose wheat flour. We can't recommend any other flour, so for the best results we suggest using all-purpose.
• Baking Powder: Helps cookies rise to the perfect light, fluffy, thick and chewy cookie!
• Cream tartar:Key to that slightly acidic, signature snickerdoodle taste. This also prevents the sugar in cookie dough from crystallizing, so the eggnog biscuits stay soft and fluffy instead of crispy and crunchy.
• SpicesWe've added ground cloves and nutmeg to the cookie dough to give it the ultimate holiday flavor.
• Flaxseed Meal:Ground ground flaxseed can be used to replace eggs in many of our vegan recipes. These eggnog Snickerdoodles are no exception! Make sure that the flaxseeds have been ground into a flour (not whole!). They will not absorb water properly if they aren't ground into a meal.
• Butter:We prefer to use vegan buttersticks from Country Crock Earth Balance or Melt. If you use salted butter, cut the sea salt down to 1/4 teaspoon.
• Sugar To get the best holiday flavor and richness, you will need both light brown sugar and granulated white sugar. You can use dark brown sugar if necessary. However, the cookies may be more moist and soft due to the addition of molasses. Wholesome is certified organic and naturally vegan. Conventional sugars are processed with bone-char.
• Coconutmilk Holiday Nog - Delicious! Our favorite vegan holiday nog for baking and drinking. It is rich and creamy just like traditional eggnog but without the dairy or eggs. Find the limited edition So Delicious eggnog near you by using their store locator.
• Vanilla Extract:A little pure vanilla will add depth and warmth to the spices, as well as enhance the aroma.

Equipment Required

• Hand mixer or stand mixer
• Baking sheets
• Spatula
• Parchment paper and silicone mats
• Plastic wrap or reusable wrapping

How to make eggnog Snickerdoodle cookies

1. Make the flax eggs. Combine the flaxseed flour and water in a small bowl. Allow the mixture to thicken for about 10 minutes.
2. Mix the dry ingredients. Add all the dry ingredients to a medium-sized bowl and stir until well combined. Set aside.
3. Butter and sugar should be creamed. Add the brown sugar, granulated and vegan butter to a large bowl. Cream the butter and sugars using a stand mixer fitted with the paddle or whisk attachment.
4. Add the holiday nog and flax eggs. Add the So Delicious Coconut Holiday Nog, the flax eggs and the vanilla extract. Mix until combined.
5. Add the flour mixture slowly. Add the dry mixture slowly into the bowl containing the wet ingredients. Mix by hand until you have a uniform cookie-dough consistency.
6. The cookie dough should be chilled. Refrigerate the cookie dough for 30 minutes.
7. Cinnamon sugar coating is made. In a small mixing bowl, combine the cinnamon, nutmeg, and sugar.
8. The eggnog cookie is scooped. Scoop out the cookie dough with a 1 1/2 teaspoon-sized scoop. Roll it between your hands. Roll each cookie dough into the cinnamon sugar coating, until it is evenly coated.
9. Bake. Bake for 13-15 mins or until golden and puffy. The cookies should have a slight golden color around the edges and be underbaked on the top when they are done.
10. Let cool completely. Cool the cookies for 5 minutes on the baking sheet, then move them to the wire racks to cool completely.
11. Enjoy!

Instructions

1. Make the flax egg. In a small bowl, combine the ground flaxseed meal with water until well combined. Set the mixture aside to thicken, about 10 minutes.
2. Combine the dry ingredients. In a medium bowl, add all of the dry ingredients and mix until uniform. Set aside.
3. Cream the butter and sugar. In a separate large bowl, add the vegan butter and both brown sugar and granulated sugar. Using a hand mixer or stand mixing bowl fitted with the paddle attachment or whisk attachment, cream the butter and sugars together until light and fluffy.
4. Add the flax egg and holiday nog. Add in the flax egg, along with the So Delicious Coconut Holiday Nog and vanilla extract. Cream again until well combined.
5. Slowly add the flour mixture. Slowly add the dry mix into the bowl with the wet ingredients and mix by hand until a uniform cookie dough forms. You may need to mix it with clean hands to get it to fully incorporate.
6. Chill the cookie dough. Cover the eggnog cookie dough with plastic wrap or reusable wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
7. Make the cinnamon sugar coating. In a small bowl, whisk together the granulated sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
8. Prepare for baking. In the meantime, line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat and preheat the oven to 350°F.
9. Scoop the eggnog cookies. Once the dough has sufficiently chilled, scoop out the dough using a 1 1/2 tablespoon-sized cookie scoop and roll it into small between your palms. Then, roll each cookie dough ball in the cinnamon sugar coating until evenly coated.
10. Bake. Place the eggnog cookies about 2 inches apart on the lined baking sheets and bake for 13-15 minutes or until puffy and golden. When the cookies are ready, they should be slightly golden brown around the edges, yet under-baked on top.
11. Cool completely. Let the chewy cookies cool for about 5 minutes directly on the baking sheets, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.

• To frozen raw cookie dough, Scoop out the dough and roll it into small balls (with or with sugar coating). Place the cookie balls in a single line on a baking tray so that they do not touch. Flash freeze them for 1-2 minutes or until they become solid. The frozen cookie dough can be transferred to a freezer-safe bag or container. Freeze for up to three months. Bake from frozen until they are soft and puffy.
• To frozen baked cookies: Place cooled cookies on the baking tray and flash freeze them for 1-2 hour or until they are solid. The frozen cookies can be stored in a freezer bag, or a container that is freezer-safe for up to three months. Defrost the frozen cookies until they are soft and then enjoy.
• Storage: Cookies can be stored in an airtight container for up to four days at room temperature, or one week in the fridge.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are some ways to transition to a plantbased diet?

While it is daunting to transition to a plant based diet, it can be exciting and a life-changing experience with the right information and support. These are some helpful tips to help you transition into this type of diet.

1. Use whole foods in your meals to get adequate macronutrients.
2. You should be able to make meals that are both delicious and suitable for your dietary needs.
3. Creating a support system like friends, family members, or certified health professionals.
4. Explore new ways to increase your enjoyment of good food and keep you healthy.
5. Be mindful of your nutrient intake and change your habits gradually.

These tips can help individuals to transition slowly to a plant based diet.

What are some of the most common plant-based food?

A plant-based diet is gaining popularity due to its potential health and environmental benefits. Common plant-based foods are those derived from plants, such as fruits, vegetables, grains, legumes, nuts, and seeds. These foods contain essential vitamins, minerals and antioxidants. There are many great sources of plant-based proteins, including beans, legumes, chickpeas and kidney beans, as well as soy burgers, soy burgers, hemp powder, nutritional yeast flakes, vegan yogurt, soy burgers, soy burgers, soy sour cream, soy patty, and soy burgers. Also, whole wheat bread without added sugar or vegetable oil, chia seeds, flaxseed oil, whole grain cereals with added nuts, such as oats or oats or barley with nuts and barley, as well as well as well as whole grains like oats or oats with nutseed butter or nuts. You can also get healthy fats from plant sources like flaxseeds, olive oil, flaxseed or other nut oils. Additionally, many ready-to-eat meals are now available, which can further reduce your overall grocery cost. Plant-based diets may be cheaper than other options depending on what you buy and how many.

Are plant-based meals more expensive than other types of diets?

Plant-based diets don't necessarily have to be more expensive than others. A balanced plant-based diet is possible without spending a lot, depending on how many foods you consume. Grain, beans and eggs, as well as nuts and vegetables such potatoes, can be affordable and provide a good source of protein for a low cost. Proper meal planning can help you cut down on food costs. Apart from individual ingredients, you can also save money by purchasing ready-to cook plant-based meals.

Can I eat eggs if I follow a plant-based diet

No, eggs are not permissible on a plant-based diet. This diet excludes meat, fish and poultry as well as eggs. However, several vegan substitutes for traditionally egg-centric dishes offer similar flavor and texture without relying on animal products. Tofu scrambles or eggs can be made into great breakfast dishes. It can also replace eggs with plant-based protein. For example, chickpea flour or mashed banana can be used for binding in baked goods. Aquafaba (the liquid that comes in chickpea cans) can also substitute for eggs in making meringues. Non-vegan recipes can also be preserved without losing their flavor by using egg substituters such as flaxseed meal, chia seeds or chia seeds with water instead of one large egg.

Can children be fed a plant-based diet?

Adults are increasingly turning to plant-based diets for their many health benefits. But parents might be wondering if a diet based on plants is safe for their kids. A well-planned diet that meets all of their nutritional needs can be a safe option for children.

A plant-based diet can provide all the nutrients necessary for children to grow and thrive. However, it is important to ensure that children get enough protein, iron, calcium, vitamin D, and vitamin B12. Protein is essential for growth and development, and good plant-based protein sources include beans, lentils, tofu, and nuts. Iron is necessary for healthy blood cells and can be found in leafy greens, beans, and fortified cereals. Calcium is crucial for healthy bones and can be obtained from fortified plant milk, calcium-set tofu, and leafy greens. Vitamin D is crucial for bone health. This vitamin can be obtained by sunlight exposure and fortified dairy milk. Vitamin B12, which is essential for healthy nerves, blood cells and other body functions, can only be found in animal products. A B12 supplement may be necessary for children who are on a plant-based food diet.

Also, it is important that children who eat a plant-based diet get enough calories to meet their energy requirements. Parents should aim to offer a variety of whole foods, including fruits, vegetables, whole grains, legumes, nuts, and seeds. Children may need to eat more frequently or consume larger portions to meet their energy needs.

To ensure that your child's diet is healthy, it is a good idea to consult with a registered dietitian. They can guide you in meal planning, supplementation and appropriate portion sizes.

In conclusion, children can safely follow a well-planned plant-based diet that meets their nutritional needs. Parents can help their children have a healthy, nutritious, plant-based diet by planning well and getting guidance from a registered dietitian.

How much meat can you eat on a plant based diet?

No amount of meat is permissible on a plant-based diet. This diet eliminates all animal products including poultry, fish, and meat. Many vegan substitutes offer the same flavor without using animal products. Tofu, seitan (wheat flour), tempeh, fermented soybeans, and mock duck made of mushrooms can all mimic traditional meat dishes. Vegetarian hamburgers made with black beans or quinoa taste just like beef burgers. Coconut bacon strips or eggplant bacon bits, tofu mayo and veggie hot dog made with seasoned-textured soy proteins are other tasty vegan alternatives. These options are perfect for those looking to make the transition to a plantbased diet.

How To

How to cook delicious, nutritious plant-based recipes?

Plant-based recipes can be delicious and filling if you have the right ingredients, prepared well and creative recipe. To start, one should opt for fresh produce and other quality ingredients; aim to create a grocery list based on the recipes one intends to make (shopping at farmers' markets and health food stores can be helpful). To keep food fresh, you should also invest in the right storage equipment.

Next, focus on variety when meal planning. Include whole foods like vegetables, fruits, nuts, and legumes. Always try to include different colors in your produce selections for better nutrition. Each meal should contain a balanced amount of fiber, protein, and healthy fats. You can also make batch cooking easier by using kitchen appliances such slow cookers or multi-cookers.

Try new flavors while staying vegan. When you're trying to get creative, spice like chili powder or cayenne pepper can add flavor to your dish while also keeping it healthy. Plant-based meals can be transformed from bland to delicious by using whole foods, rather than processed substitutes. For example, you can make beans instead faux "meats" or roast butternut squash in place of french fries. And finally, when all else fails, remix leftovers from earlier in the week and create something new!

These tips will allow you to enjoy a plant-based diet that is delicious and not void of flavor or fullness. So get started cooking!
