Here's a classic decorating cookie, successfully made vegan and gluten-free. These Vegan Sugar Cookie Cut-Outs are what you want and expect: The dough comes together easily, needs just a couple hours in the fridge, then it rolls out smoothly to be cut into any shape you desire. You can also just make simple circles using a biscuit cutter. The result is a perfect cookie texture with a soft crunch in your mouth and a sweet vanilla with light touch of lemon flavor.
Have you ever taken a recipe that calls for wheat flour, but also says you can go ahead and substitute with 1-for-1 gluten-free flour, only to find that it doesn't work at all? You can't roll the dough without it breaking into many pieces and certainly can't form them into shapes to get them on your baking sheet. This recipe for Vegan Sugar Cookie Cut-Outs does not do that! This dough rolls out smoothly and even the scraps from your first cut cookies will roll back into a ball and flatten out for more cut-outs. I use Bob's Red Mill 1-for-1 Gluten-Free Baking Flour in these cookies. I have not tried other mixes.
These are fun decorating cookies to do with children. Depending on age and skill, you can pipe on the icing and then let them add sprinkles of their choice while still wet, or maybe your kids can do it all! Choose any shape for any celebration and color and decorate to your heart's desire.
Many food colorings and decorating sprinkles are not vegan. Some use colors that come from insects and usually they contain weird preservatives that no one wants in their body. Supernatural brand makes great food dye and even better selections of sprinkles that are super fun! Check them out!
These Vegan Sugar Cookie Cut-Outs are not only vegan, gluten-free, but also low-FODMAP. Now you can decorate your cookies and eat them too!
