How to make vegan matcha cookies
Find the complete recipe with measurements in the recipe card below. Sift* the flour, cornstarch, matcha, and baking soda together in a medium bowl. Stir in the salt. By sifting the matcha into the dry ingredients, you’ll prevent lumps from going into the cookie dough and get a more even green color. Next, beat the softened vegan butter and sugars together in the bowl of a stand mixer until creamy. Mix in the vanilla, flaxseeds, and milk. Gently mix the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined. To finish, use a spatula or your hands to fold the white chocolate chips into the dough. Roll the cookie dough into balls and place them on the prepared baking sheets. Bake the matcha cookies until the edges are set. They’ll look a little soft coming out of the oven but will firm up as they cool. Let the cookies cool for a few minutes, then enjoy!
