Vegan Grinch Cookies aka Matcha Sugar Cookies

I bought some matcha powder a while ago and I’ve been itching to bake something with it! Since I’m a grinch fan what better way to honor the top humbug but with some green cookies!

I used a recipe I found online to make these delicious vegan matcha sugar cookies.

Occasion & Servings: Holiday dessert/cookies

Ingredients & Portions: 2 tsp matcha powder, 1/2 cup coconut oil, 1/2 cup of sugar. 1 Tbs chia seeds rehydrated with 3 Tbs of water, 2 tsp vanilla, 1 cup of flour, 1/2 tsp baking powder, and 1/4 tsp of salt.

Detailed steps: Blend the oil, matcha and sugar together. Add the chia seeds and vanilla extract if desired. Next blend in the flour and baking soda and salt. Mix until just incorporated and refrigerate for 30 minutes. Roll balls of the dough in sugar and place on a baking sheet 2 inches apart. Bake for 11 minutes at 350 degrees.

Additional tips/notes: let cool for 5 minutes to finish cooking outside the oven. The original recipe said if you want a cracked look at 6 minutes you can tap the tray but I didn’t try this method.

⭐️Overall rating: 8/10: I love matcha and cookies are so easy to make!

Matcha not only brings a beautiful green color but is also packed with antioxidants, making these cookies a healthier dessert option.

Tips for perfecting your cookies include ensuring your ingredients are at room temperature and measuring accurately. Plus, these cookies can be stored in an airtight container for a few days, maintaining their freshness.
