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

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.
