Vegan Strawberry Shortcake Cookies And Vegan Strawberry Coconut Chocolate chip Shortcake Cookies!!!

Ingredients:

2 cups diced strawberries (about 1/4 inch pieces)

1 teaspoon lemon juice

1/2 cup + 1 tablespoon sugar (Coconut sugar if you haven’t seen my shopping list organic brown sugar works) and shame on you for not having coconut sugar J

1/4 teaspoon Orange zest

2 cup all-purpose flour (still using my red mills gluten free all purpose)

2 teaspoons baking powder

1/2 teaspoon salt (sea salt regular works fine too)

6 tablespoons unsweetened Applesauce

2/3 cup non-dairy (I used so delicious vanilla coconut) creamer

Directions:

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.

Mix the strawberries with the lemon juice and two tablespoon of sugar.

In a large bowl, mix the sugar with the Orange zest, rubbing together until it becomes fragrant.

add the flour, baking powder, remaining sugar, and salt and mix together.

have your applesauce at room temperature, and using wooden spoon mix applesauce into the dry mixture, until it resembles coarse crumbs.

Add the creamer to the bowl and stir until the dough starts to come together, then add the strawberries.

The batter was very wet, and I was nervous, I get nervous anytime I’m mutilating a recipe into a vegan and gluten free friendly recipe but they baked out just fine.
using a small or regular ice cream spoon depending how big you want the yummyness of each cookie, and place them about 1-2 inches apart on the sheet pan.

Bake for about 20 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown (if you like huge cookies like me). Let cool a little on the sheet pan, then place on a cookie rack to cool completely.
