Prep Time: 10 mins
Cook Time: 12 mins
Total Time: 22 mins
Cuisine: American
Serves: 24 cookies

Ingredients

  1. 1 cup all-purpose flour
  2. 1/2 cup coconut oil, softened
  3. 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  4. 1/4 teaspoon cardamom powder
  5. 1/4 teaspoon baking powder
  6. 1/4 teaspoon salt
  7. 1 tablespoon almond milk

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent the cookies from sticking.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the softened coconut oil and powdered sugar. Use a hand mixer or a whisk to beat them together until the mixture is creamy and well combined.
  3. Add the almond milk to the mixture and continue to beat until fully incorporated. The mixture should be smooth and slightly fluffy.
  4. In a separate bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, cardamom powder, baking powder, and salt. This will help to evenly distribute the dry ingredients and prevent clumping.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredient mixture to the wet ingredients. Stir gently with a spatula or wooden spoon until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; the dough should be soft and slightly sticky.
  6. Using a tablespoon or cookie scoop, portion out the dough and roll it into small balls, about 1 inch in diameter. Place the dough balls on the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 2 inches of space between each cookie.
  7. Once all the dough is shaped and placed on the baking sheet, gently flatten each cookie ball with the palm of your hand or the bottom of a glass. This will help them spread evenly while baking.
  8. Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. The centers may look a little soft, but they will firm up as they cool.
  9. Remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the cookies cool on the sheet for about 5 minutes. Then, transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
  10. Once cooled, enjoy your delicious vegan cardamom sugar cookies with a cup of tea or coffee!

Tips

  1. • Ensure your coconut oil is softened, not melted, for the perfect cookie texture • Sifting dry ingredients is crucial for smooth, lump-free dough • Don't overmix the dough - this can make your cookies tough • Use a cookie scoop for uniform cookie sizes • Let cookies cool completely to achieve the ideal crisp-yet-tender texture • Store in an airtight container to maintain freshness for up to 5 days • For extra flavor, consider dusting with powdered sugar or adding a light cardamom glaze • Room temperature ingredients blend more smoothly, so take them out 30 minutes before baking
