Vegan No-Bake Spice Cookies
Description
This recipe creates Vegan No-Bake Spice Cookies by mixing cashew butter and quick oats as the base. A blend of coconut sugar, water, coconut oil, cinnamon, ground ginger, ground cloves, and fine sea salt is brought to a boil for 2 minutes without stirring to form a syrup. This hot mixture is poured over the oat and cashew butter combination and stirred well until sticky. Cookies are then dropped by heaping tablespoons onto parchment-lined sheets and gently flattened by hand. They set at room temperature until firm.
The cookies offer a soft yet slightly chewy texture with warm seasonal spice flavors and natural sweetness from coconut sugar. They do not require baking, making them a convenient no-heat dessert or snack. The ingredients keep the recipe vegan-friendly.
For storage, keep the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days or refrigerate for up to 2 weeks to extend freshness.
Ingredients
- 1/4 cup cashew butter
- 1 cup oats quick-cooking
- 1/2 cup coconut sugar
- 3 tablespoons water
- 2 tablespoons coconut oil
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1/8 teaspoon cloves ground
- 1/8 teaspoon salt fine sea salt
Instructions
- Place the cashew butter and oats in a large bowl and set it aside.
- Combine the coconut sugar, water, oil, cinnamon, ginger, cloves and salt in a small saucepan over medium-high heat and bring the mixture to a boil. As soon as the liquid starts bubbling around the edge of the saucepan, set a timer for 2 minutes. Let it boil without stirring.
- Once the timer goes off, turn off the heat and quickly pour the boiled mixture into the bowl with the oats and cashew butter. Stir well to combine-- the mixture will be sticky. Use a heaping tablespoon to drop the mixture onto a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper, and then use your fingers to gently flatten each cookie. Allow the cookies to cool completely at room temperature before serving.
- These cookies should store well in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days, or in the fridge for up to 2 weeks.
