Holiday Recipe Makeover: Gingerbread Cookies (Vegan + Gluten-Free)

These adorable gingerbread people smell a lot like Christmas, and the warm, festive spices bring so much flavor. The recipe is easy to make, too — it requires only seven ingredients!

Baking these is also a great way to get the kids involved in the kitchen at Christmastime; they’ll love it.

Makes 30 cookies

Preparation

1. Preheat the oven to 320°F and line two baking trays with parchment paper or grease with coconut oil.

2. Place the pecans in a food processor and blend until flour forms. Add the rest of the ingredients and blend all together until a sticky dough forms.

3. Roll the dough out on a lightly floured counter to about ¼ inch thick.

4. Cut the dough with a gingerbread-man cutter and transfer cutouts to the baking trays.

5. Bake for about 15 minutes until golden brown.
