Vegan Cinnamon Swirl Cookies

Cinnamon Swirl Cookies anyone? Vegan of course.😜 This idea was inspired by Sallys Baking Blog, which I will leave a link down below. But this is what I did to make my own version of it. I had issues with the sugar cookie recipe I used, but I figured I’d leave it here in case anyone wanted to try it and see if they have better luck with it.

Sugar Cookies:

1 c coconut oil, softened

2 c granulated sugar

1 tbsp Bob’s Red Mill Egg Replacer

2 tbsp room temp water

2 tsp vanilla extract

2 3/4c flour

1 tsp baking soda

1/2 tsp salt

Directions:

In a separate bowl, add the egg replacer and the water, whisk together until well combined and set aside

In another bowl, add the dry ingredients and combine

In a stand mixer or bowl, add the coconut oil and sugar

Mix until the ingredients are incorporated and light and fluffy

Add in the egg replacer and vanilla and mix again

Once well combined, add the dry ingredients, and mix until it just starts to form a dough

The dough should be semi dry and crumbly, but stick together when you press it together

Cut the dough in half, form into disks, and wrap in plastic wrap

Place in the fridge for at least 2 hours, or overnight

Make the filling*

Heat the oven to 350 degrees F

Take out the dough, roll out into flat rectangles, and spread the filling onto the cookie

Roll the dough starting with one of the long edges into a swirl (if it starts cracking, you can smooth it out easily)

Place in the fridge again for about 2 hours

Take the roll out and cut into 1 inch think pieces and place them on a baking tray

Bake for 10-12 minutes or until just slightly golden brown on the edges

*Filling:

1/2 c vegan butter

1/2 c brown sugar

1/2 c granulated sugar

4 tbsp cinnamon

Directions:

Add the butter to a bowl, and place it in the microwave for about 30 seconds until melted

Add the sugar and cinnamon and mix until well combined

Icing:

1 c confectioners sugar

3 tbsp non-dairy milk

1 tsp vanilla

Pinch cinnamon

Directions:

Mix all the ingredients in a bowl until well combined

Pour over the cooled cookies and enjoy!
