Vegan Blueberry Cookies
Bake your way to perfection and have these delicious blueberry cookies ready in less than 30 minutes. It is easy to make and the perfect way to use up that half used bag of blueberries lying in your freeze.
Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour 126 grams
- ½ teaspoon baking powder
- A small dash of salt
- ⅓ cup unsalted vegan butter, at room temperature 80 grams
- ⅓ cup granulated sugar 80 grams
- ⅓ cup heaped frozen blueberries 70 grams
Instructions
- Oven Preparation: First, set your oven to preheat at 400°F (200°C).
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a small mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, and salt with a manual whisk.
- Soften Blueberries: Soften the blueberries by warming them for about 30 seconds in the microwave on a high setting or for 2-3 minutes on a medium flame if using a stovetop. You should get an until they resemble a jam-like consistency.
- Give the blueberries a couple of minutes to cool down after heating.
- Blend Butter and Sugar: With an electric or stand mixer, blend the vegan butter and sugar together until the mixture becomes fluffy and noticeably lighter in color.
- Incorporate Blueberries: Add the cooled blueberries to the mixture of butter and sugar. Blend at a high speed to blend the blueberries into the mix (It's okay if the blueberries get mashed in the process, it will impart a beautiful blue hue to the final cookies).
- Create the Cookie Dough: Slowly mix the dry ingredients with the wet ones, stirring until a cohesive dough is formed.
- Chill Dough: Place it in the freezer for about 30 minutes to firm up before rolling it into 12-14 individual balls. You can use an ice cream scoop to scoop out each cookie dough ball instead.
- Baking: Arrange the dough balls on a cookie sheet and bake at the preheated temperature for 10-13 minutes, or until you notice a slight browning around the edges and top. You can continue to bake for another 3-4 minutes if you prefer crunchier cookies or stick to 10 minutes if you prefer soft cookies.
- Cool and serve: Allow the cookies to cool on tray first and then on a rack for at least 10-15 minutes before enjoying them.
- Enjoy these delightful Vegan Blueberry Cookies with a glass of plant-based milk or just by themselves!
