14 Vegan Christmas Cookie Recipes You'll Want To Keep Baking Long After The Holidays Are Over

Gingerbread cookies have the perfect spice to get you into the holiday mood.

These vegan gingerbread cookies from Emilie Eats are filled with wheat flour, coconut oil, and applesauce, but I can guarantee you won't know the difference between these and any dairy-based treats.

This coconut snowball recipe is gluten-free, soy-free, and sugar-free. But that certainly doesn't mean it's lacking in a serious punch of flavor.

If you're a coconut lover, this is the ultimate treat to tote around to every holiday party. The recipe only calls for three forms of coconut, plus a few seasonings, so the prep time won't take all day, which is always a plus.

If you like a little crunch in your cookie, this is definitely the recipe for you. These vegan hazelnut shortbread cookies from Ingenious Cooking are suitable for literally any diet: They're free of gluten, dairy, and sugar.

But don't forget to read the recipe carefully, as it calls for two different kinds of flour, and most people don't necessarily have brown rice flour just lying around, you know?

This double chocolate chip cookie recipe from Ceara's Kitchen is grain-free, which is admittedly a little unusual for a cookie recipe. But overall, these treats are super simple to whip up, and your friends won't believe how good they taste.

These caramel-stuffed salted chocolate chip cookies by Philosophy and Cake use tofu in ways I honestly can't understand at the moment. Better yet, though, you can actually swap the tofu for banana if you so desire.

Oh, and you can add sea salt to the top of each cookie, which, as everyone knows, makes literally any food taste better.

Any type of chocolate bark instantly makes me nostalgic for my childhood holiday celebrations, and this white chocolate bark recipe from Fork and Beans is no exception. The slight twist on a classic recipe will add some flare, though: It's basically going to be the best trail-mix-chocolate hybrid you've ever come across.

All you'll need to whip up this bad boy are some white chocolate chips, coconut oil, pistachios, and dried cranberries.

These vegan chocolate peppermint crinkle cookies by My Darling Vegan are covered in a light coat of granulated sugar, and stuffed with crushed peppermint candies, applesauce, and cocoa powder. Any friend with a serious sweet tooth won't be able to resist these.

These orange cinnamon cookies by Vegan Heaven are fashioned out of star cut-outs, and yes, the shape of the cookie totally affects the flavor (just kidding — but not really).

The key to this recipe is in the powdered brown sugar — and the star shape, I swear.

These flourless almond butter chocolate chunk cookies by Ceara's Kitchen look so much like chocolate chip cookies that you might even want to try to fool your friends and see if they'll even recognize a difference.
