Vegan funfetti sugar cookies

If birthday cake or funfetti is a flavor option for anything, there’s a solid 99.9% chance I am choosing it. I am OBSESSED. These cookies have the most perfect sugar cookie/birthday cake flavor thanks to a tiny little bit of almond extract. Don’t ask me how it works, but it does!

What you’ll need to make vegan funfetti Sugar Cookies:

Almond flour: Unfortunately, there aren’t any subs for the almond flour. It gives the cookie the most perfect, light, chewy texture!

Maple syrup: Any sticky sweetener would work!

Baking powder: This helps the cookies bake and become the perfect texture.

Almond extract: This gives the cookies the perfect birthday cake flavor. There are no subs, sadly. You can definitely leave it out, but they won’t taste the same.

Powdered sugar: I opt for monk fruit powdered sugar to keep these refined sugar free. You can use code danishealthyeats for a discount on my favorite!

Sprinkles: The most fun part of the recipe! I try and opt for sprinkles without artificial dyes, flavors, and sugars!

Let’s make some cookies:


1. First we will mix together the dough ingredients.
2. Then we’ll drop the dough by spoonfuls onto a cookie sheet, flattening them with the palm of our hand.
3. Then, we bake!
4. When the cookies have cooled, you’ll mix together the powdered sugar and plant milk until a glaze consistency forms. Then you’ll frost the cookies and add sprinkles!
5. Place them in the fridge and when you’re ready to eat, let it sit out a minute or so and enjoy.

    Yum! I’m going to make these soon but I already know they’re gonna be a 5!

    Where do you get your sugar free sprinkles? Please share link or brand! Thanks!

    1. Aw, thank you so much! It can be super hard to find sugar-free sprinkles, unless you’re shopping on amazon! But I usually just pick some up at Whole Foods, as they’re naturally colored and don’t have any weird ingredients! But there is a brand on Amazon called “Good Dees Sprinkles” and they’re a sugar-free option!
