Συστατικά και υποκατάστατα
Let’s see all the ingredients you need to make gingersnap cookies.
- Λιναρένιο αλεύρι – This is used to make a flax egg in combination with lukewarm water listed just below. You can also use chia seed meal if you don’t have flax meal at home.
- Χλιαρό νερό – to make the flax egg.
- Αλεύρι για όλες τις χρήσεις – or oat flour. For a gluten-free version, use my οδηγός μετατροπής χωρίς γλουτένη.
- Unsalted Vegan Butter softened at room temperature or unsalted margarine
- Light Unsulphured Molasse – This makes the cookies crusty on top and softer. I used blackstrap molasse, as seen in the picture below, only because it’s what I had at home, and we love its bitter flavor in gingerbread cookies.
- Κρυσταλλική ζάχαρη, like white sugar or unrefined cane sugar.
- Εκχύλισμα βανίλιας – για γεύση.
- Αλεσμένη πιπερόριζα Κανέλα – for a classic fall flavor.
- Μαγειρική σόδα – to give them a small rise.
- Αρωματοπιπέρι – because there’s not gingersnap cookies without it.
How To Make Vegan Gingersnap Cookies
It’s super easy to make Vegan Gingersnap Cookies. Even if you are not a baker, you can whip up a batch of these cookies this holiday. All you need is a bit of patience since the key to making chewy crackled ginger cookies is chilling the dough for one hour.
- In a large mixing bowl or the bowl of your stand mixer, using the paddle attachment beat plant-based butter and sugar until light, fluffy and creamy (φωτογραφία 2). It takes about 1 minute on low-medium speed. You can also use a hand beater with the beating tool.
- In a mixing bowl, whisk flour, baking soda, ginger, cinnamon, allspice, and salt until well combined. Set aside.
- In a small mixing bowl, whisk the flaxseed meal and lukewarm water (φωτογραφία 3). Set it aside for 5 to 10 minutes until gooey. You will use this later in the recipe as an egg replacer. It gives an ultra-chewy texture to the cookies.
- Stop the beater, and add molasse, vanilla extract, and flax egg made in the previous step (φωτογραφία 4).
- Beat again on low-speed to just incorporate (φωτογραφία 5). Finally, fold in the flour mixture and beat on low speed to incorporate and form a creamy cookie batter (φωτογραφία 6).
- Film the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate the dough for 1 hour (φωτογραφία 1).
- Προθερμάνετε το φούρνο στους 350 ° F (180 ° C).
- Line two large baking sheets with parchment paper, and don’t oil the paper to prevent the cookies from over-spreading.
- In a small bowl, add the remaining sugar.
- Scoop out one tablespoon of cookie dough (φωτογραφία 2), grease your hands with coconut oil, and roll the dough between your palms into a dough ball.
- Next, roll the dough ball into the bowl with sugar to coat evenly (φωτογραφία 3).
- Place each cookie dough ball on the prepared lined baking sheet, leaving 2 inches between each ball (φωτογραφία 4).
- Then, use the back of a glass to press down the cookies flat (φωτογραφία 5).
- Bake the cookies for 9 to 11 minutes until they crack on the top and expand (φωτογραφία 6). They should be quite soft to the touch, but they will form up as they cool down.
- Αφήστε τα μπισκότα να κρυώσουν για 10 λεπτά στο ταψί και στη συνέχεια μεταφέρετέ τα σε μια σχάρα για να κρυώσουν.

Ανταλλαγές Αλλεργιών
Here are some options to adapt this vegan ginger cookies to your food allergies:
- Χωρίς γλουτένη – Για μια έκδοση χωρίς γλουτένη, χρησιμοποιήστε το οδηγός μετατροπής χωρίς γλουτένη.
- Χωρίς ζάχαρη – Sugar-free erythritol is natural and works very well in cookies. Stay away from xylitol as it makes cookies very soft.
- Χωρίς λιναρόσπορο – You can use chia seed meal instead.
- Molasse-Free – These are vegan ginger molasse cookies, and the molasse gives them their special flavor. However, if you can’t have molasse, try using the same amount of maple syrup or rice syrup instead.
Συχνές ερωτήσεις
Below are my answers to your most frequent questions about these cookies.
This happens if the cookie dough is not well coated with sugar or if it is too warm.
There are two types of molasses. One is called light unsulphured molasses, which is the best to bake ginger cookies with its light amber color and sweet taste.
The other one, called blackstrap molasses, also works for baking cookies, but it gives a darker color and much more intense flavor. It’s a bit bitter and salty, but rich in iron.
