Healthy Cookies for Santa

Happy Christmas Eve, fellow chocolate chips!
(And peppermint chips too :).)

Yesterday, I highlighted a few of my Raw Christmas Cookies.
Today, it’s time for the baked cookies. Some are healthy, and all are vegan:

Other Cookies:

Hmmm, I think I need to come up with some more cookie recipes. Before writing this post, I thought I’d posted many more than this. And I’m amazed I’ve never shared my favorite peanut butter cookie recipe, so hopefully I’ll get that up pronto!

Question of the Day:
Have you baked any holidays cookies yet this year?

I’m ashamed to admit that, after getting burned out with the Ex-Boyfriend Cookies, I have yet to bake a single Christmas cookie. Thankfully, Christmas isn’t over; there’s still time!

    I haven’t really baked any cookies yet – but I did make your great Single Lady Cookie recipe recently. 🙂

    I’ve been cooking/baking a lot, but not nearly as much as I’d like! I made a St. Louis gooey butter cake for someone, some pumpkin squares…but my favorite thing that I made was white-chocolate cranberry macadamia nut cookies! They were Christmassy as well as amazing.

    Oh no, the chocolate almond cookies link doesn’t work! :[
    I haven’t done any baking yet…I just went on a road trip to visit family in New York/New Jersey, so after like 14-17 hours in the car I am wiped out, haha.
    Merry Christmas Eve, Katie~

    I’m making whole made cinnamon- maple almond butter and cashew spice balls for my friends and family– that’s baking, right? 🙂

    Katie, I absolutely love your blog!! As someone in recovery from an eating disorder, your blog breathes life into food again and makes me want to appreciate it, create it, be present with it, and just have fun with it! You totally have a way of “waking up” food and bringing color and life into it. Your zest and relatibility is so encouraging. And all the links are addictive because everything is so colorful and I feel like a kid in a candy store, lol! Thank you so much. Have a beautiful holiday and take care. <3

And all the fun colors and pretty arrangements make me feel like a kid in a candy store! Thank you so much. Please know that you are really helping, that your blog speaks to many different kinds of people, that the flexibility piece is working. You nailed it. Have a beautiful holiday and take care. <3

      Wow, thank you SO SO much, Jenn! Seriously, your comment meant the world to me; you made my Christmas :).
      P.S. lol no worries about the multiple comments: I’ve been leaving multiple comments on peoples’ sites too. WordPress keeps sending my comments to spam! Grrr hehe.

        Thank you so much for your reply! I had to let you know that I made a banana butter sandwich for lunch and it was heaven on a plate! i gave the leftover banana butter to my friend (crediting you, of course) who sadly is on crutches for a month after breaking her leg – and she just told me it was “absolutely superb! delish! delish!” Now it looks like I’m just going to HAVE (insert sarcasm here) to make more! Ha! Who’s complaining?! I’ll gladly be her banana butter supplier during her month off her feet. Such luxurious treatment she’s getting, sheesh! 😉 Thanks a whole bunch for all this deliciousness. <3

    Oops! I thought my first comment didn’t take so I tried to rewrite it! Now you know what I said and then some -sorry about that! Well, here I am again. 🙂 That’s it for tonight, promise! Take care. 🙂

    I’ve made two types of gingerbread biscuits (chocolate and traditional) which went down a treat (pardon the pun). Sigh, Christmas is over now, it’s only 9 at night and I’m heading to bed, so tired xD. Do you go on a run on Christmas or is there simply not enough time?

  9. Albizia says

    Merry Christmas, Katie!

    It’s nice that someone thinks of Santa’s health 😛 . And if health goes hand in hand with great taste, Santa must feel really lucky to have the chance to try your cookies.

    I just started baking but it’s because I had a lot of other things to cook and didn’t have time for this. You are invited at a lenten Christmas Eve dinner at my blog. I even baked the pumpkin dessert you once asked about 🙂 .
