Healthy Vegan Snickerdoodles Cookies
One of my husband’s friends asked me if I had a healthy recipe for snickerdoodles cookies, I didn’t so I got inspired to create it! Here is my version of a delicious, healthy and nutritious snickerdoodles cookie, aka cinammon sugar cookie. I love it because it’s:
Healthier than traditional snickerdoodles.
Super yummy and easy to make.
Ingredients are mostly whole foods.
High in protein.
Simple Ingredients
Beans
Chickpea flour
Almond flour
Tahini
Plant based milk
Dates
Maple syrup
Chia seeds
Vanilla extract
Brown sugar
Cinnamon
While I used cooked mung beans in this recipe, pretty much any type of cooked bean would work ok, just use what you have and make sure you drain them properly.
For a nut free option replace the almond flour with coconut flour.
How to Make Snickerdoodles Cookies?
You need a food processor and a couple of bowls.
Make chia eggs by mixing chia seeds with water in a small bowl and set aside.
Mix dates, tahini, vanilla extract, beans, and plant based milk in the food processor until smooth.
Pour this mix in a bowl and add the rest of the ingredients.
Make the coating by mixing brown sugar with cinnamon.
Form the cookies on a baking sheet and top off with the coating mix.
Bake for a few minutes and enjoy!
