24 servings
For the flax egg
- 1 tbsp ground flaxseed
Ingredient noteGround flaxseed only becomes a problem on a low FODMAP diet in larger amounts; this recipe uses only about 1/8 teaspoon per serving, so it is likely Low FODMAP. If you prefer to always avoid ground flaxseed, please tap it and change its rating to Red.
- 3 tbsp water
For the cookies
- 1 cup vegan butter, softened
- 1 cup organic cane sugar
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
Chef's tipChoose a gluten-free baking blend labeled 1:1 or cup-for-cup and use the same amount. Almond and coconut flour won't work the same way. - 1 tsp baking powder
- ½ tsp salt
- 2 tbsp plant-based milk
For the icing
- 2 cups powdered sugar, sifted
- 3–4 tbsp plant-based milk
- ½ tsp vanilla extract
