Vegan White Chocolate Cranberry Cookies

I believe it’s a written rule that holidays must include cookies. Particularly festive, winter-y flavored cookies like these white chocolate cranberry cookies. They’ve got a soft, chewy texture and are bursting with flavor. Everyone at your family dinner is going to want to save room for these sweet treats.

And these cookies will actually give you some other important nutrients besides loads of carbs that holiday meals are typically full of. These grain-free cookies are made up of healthy fats and protein! They’re so full of nutritious ingredients that they would even make a great surprise Christmas morning breakfast!

Or, if you think Santa might have been left more chocolate chip cookies than he can stomach, I bet he’d love this switch up 😉

I actually never left cookies out for Santa. Except for maybe one year, and I’m pretty sure that was only so I could eat the “leftovers”.

But, really, what better way to stay energized throughout the crazy holiday season than with cookies full of good-for-you ingredients. All things that’ll keep you satiated and not reaching for the obligatory bowl of candy every house has during the holidays, amIright!?

It’s not be April Fool’s Day, but I’m sure you could trick your family into thinking these white chocolate cranberry cookies were loaded with sugar. Surprise! They’re actually refined sugar free!

And there’s not much to say about mixing these cookies up. The method is so quick and straight forward, you can easily make these for any last minute, dessert requiring emergency. (i.e. every minute of the day is a dessert requiring emergency, if you ask me 😀 )

Did you and your family leave cookies out for Santa or have any other holiday traditions?
