Jump to Recipe - Print Recipe

We’re all about Christmas Vegan cookies in our house. Love this time of year with lots going on. There are new recipes to try, but we also have are true blue favourites as well. We’ve adapted our dairy free shortbread recipe and added in some wonderfully tart cranberries to the mix for our Vegan Cranberry Shortbread. They provide a great contrast to a really rich biscuit.

Free From: Dairy, Soya, Nuts, Eggs

Cook Time 15 minutes mins

Ingredients
  

  • 1/2 Cup Cranberries
  • 1 tbsp Sugar
  • 1 tbsp Water
  • 3/4 Cup Dairy-Free Butter
  • 1/2 Cup Sugar
  • 1 1/2 Cup Plain Flour (sifted)
  • 1/4 Cup Fine Semolina

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 170ºC or 350ºF.
  • Start by cooking your cranberries. You can get them at most big supermarkets now. Just pop 1/2 cup of cranberries into a pan, add in the sugar and water and heat gently for about 10 minutes. You want them firm enough to hold their shape - not mushy at all. Then drain them so you don't get extra liquid into the cookie batter. There won't be much liquid so don't be fooled into skipping this step - it's vital!
  • Then beat the dairy-free margarine until it goes a lighter colour. Beat in the caster sugar until combined and the mixture looks fluffy.
  • Then stir in the flour. I need to use my hands to bring it all into a ball. Now add the cranberries into the mix very gently. You'll get some stripes of colour but the berries should hold. You need to be gentle or you will crush the berries.
  • It should be a soft dough, which is very pliable.
  • We like our shortbread quite sweet. So we dust the board with a bit of caster sugar and roll out the dough quite thick – about ½ inch. I think these look best as 'fingers', or rectangles. Shape the dough into a square, about 1/2 thick and using a sharp knife cut it into rectangles.
  • Dip the knife into flour so it doesn't stick when you cut.
  • Place on a very lightly greased baking sheet and bake for 15 minutes. They should be light brown on the bottom and a bit of colour on top. Cool on a wire rack.
