These Fudgy Soft cookies are a favorite in my house these days. I got a jar of sunbutter to test out a few recipes for the book, to test nut-free options and list them with the recipes. The jar was still 3/4 full and was calling out to me. 

I used my Almond butter oatmeal cookies as reference. These cookies come out thick, soft and are hearty cookies to snack or, for breakfast or dessert. Sunbutter can cause the cookies to have green centers as it reacts with baking soda. The lemon juice usually should neutralize it enough. But in case you do get green centers, that is normal and edible. You can see some dark green peaking through in some cookies in the pictures.  The cookies need just 1 Bowl.

  • 1/2 tsp lemon juice
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon, optional

    Left out the lemon juice and my cookies turned green! They’re super tasty nonetheless. Had to immediately make another batch after trying the first cookie haha.

    1. Vegan Richa Support says:

      Hahaha, yes that happens with sunbutter!

  2. Shell says:

    What can I substitute the lemon juice with? Citrus allergy.

    1. Richa says:

      Omit it. The cookies might have a green center ๐Ÿ™‚

    Delicious and healthy! Was looking for something to eat while I’m eliminating so many things from my diet while breastfeeding in case that’s affecting my little one’s reflux and stumbled upon this recipe. Made it with pasha chocolate chips so it’s dairy free too. I added the lemon juice but still had the green middles. Didn’t affect the taste but scared my husband! Lol! I feel like if you want the cinnamon punch you should double the cinnamon.

      yay! thank you!

    Just made these and they are very good, Richaโ€”thanks! I used almond butter, whole wheat pastry flour, and melted Earth Balance. Next time Iโ€™ll add pecans, as well! Oh, and I included the optional cinnamon. I didnโ€™t taste it, per se, but it added a little extra โ€œsomething.โ€ ๐Ÿ˜‹

    1. Richa says:

      Awesome

    Yum!! I used olive oil and pumpkin seed butter since that’s what I had on hand and they turned out great. They’re awesome but I highly suggest doubling the recipe.
