Vegan Ginger Molasses Protein Cookies
Ingredients:
- 1 ¾ cups all-purpose flour (or gluten-free flour blend)
- 1 scoop Sunwarrior Warrior Blend Protein Gingerbread flavor
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ¼ teaspoon ground cloves
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ¼ cup vegan butter, softened
- ½ cup brown sugar or coconut sugar
- ¼ cup molasses
- 2 tablespoons almond milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Optional: 2 tablespoons granulated sugar for rolling
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, Warrior Blend Gingerbread Protein, baking soda, baking powder, ginger, cinnamon, cloves, and salt. Set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened coconut oil (or vegan butter) with the brown sugar until smooth and creamy. Add the molasses, plant-based milk, and vanilla extract, and mix until well combined.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until a soft dough forms.
- For easier handling, chill the dough in the fridge for 15-20 minutes. This step is optional but helps make rolling the cookies smoother.
- Scoop about 1 tablespoon of dough and roll it into a ball. If desired, roll each ball in granulated sugar for a sparkling finish. Place the balls on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
- Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the cookies are puffed and the edges are set. They will look slightly underbaked but will firm up as they cool.
- Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve your cookies with a glass of plant-based milk, a holiday tea, or enjoy them post-workout as a festive protein treat!
