    Ingredients

    Dry ingredients:

    • 1½ cups whole wheat flour
    • 2 tablespoons Dutch-processed cocoa powder
    • ½ teaspoon baking soda
    • ½ teaspoon salt

    Wet ingredients:

    • ¼ cup maple syrup
    • ¼ cup mild oil I used an avocado-coconut blend
    • ¼ cup unsweetened nondairy milk
    US Customary - Metric

    Instructions

    • Preheat the oven to 350° F. Prepare 2 large cookie sheets by oiling or covering with parchment paper.
    • Mix all the dry ingredients in a medium-sized mixing bowl. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and cut in with a pastry cutter or 2 forks. Use your hands to make a ball. If the dough is too crumbly, add another tablespoon of nondairy milk and try again.
    • Roll out ¼ of the dough at a time on a floured work surface into a medium thickness. Use bat and cat cookie cutters to cut out shapes and gently place them on the baking sheet.
    • Repeat until all the dough is used. If you use medium-sized cookie cutters, these will need to bake for about 10 minutes. The cookies will be crunchy.
