Name: Animal Cracker Cookie
Prep time: 20 min
Cook time: 10 min
Total time: 30 min
Yield: 12 cookies
Cuisine: American
Ingredients: 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour; 1 teaspoon baking powder; ½ teaspoon baking soda; ½ teaspoon salt; ½ cup vegan butter, softened; ⅔ cup granulated sugar; 1 teaspoon vanilla extract; 1 tablespoon maple syrup; 1-2 tablespoons plant-based milk; Animal-shaped cookie cutters

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, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
In a separate large mixing bowl, cream the vegan butter and sugar together until light and fluffy.
Add the vanilla extract and maple syrup to the butter-sugar mixture and mix well.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until a dough forms. If the dough seems too dry, add 1-2 tablespoons of plant-based milk to help bring it together.
Roll out the dough on a lightly floured surface to about 1/4-inch thickness.
Use your animal-shaped cookie cutters to cut out shapes from the dough and place them onto the prepared baking sheet.
Bake the cookies for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden.
Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Once cooled, store your Animal Cracker Cookies in an airtight container for up to one week – if they last that long!
