Ingredients
Yield: 6-8 cookies Time: 20 minutes
Shredded Coconut Mounds
3 cups shredded, unsweetened coconut
1/4 cup almond flour
1 1/2 Tbs melted vegan butter or coconut oil
3 Tbs honey or maple syrup
1 1/2 Tbs aquafaba (brine from canned chickpeas)
Pinch of salt
1/2 tsp pandan extract (can substitute for vanilla or almond)
1 Tbs cornstarch
Directions
Preheat the oven to 375º F
Place the shredded coconut in the food processor or blender
Pulse or mix the coconut for 1 minute or until the coconut clumps together in flakes.
Then, add the almond flour, melted butter or oil, sweetener, aquafaba, salt, and flavor extract. Mix together for 20 seconds.
Next, pulse in the cornstarch until the wet dough has formed.
Carefully scoop a heaping tablespoon of dough out onto a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat. Leave plenty of space between each cookie. The dough is a bit crumbly but can be easily pressed together into its form.
Place in the oven and bake for 13-15 minutes or until lightly golden on top, be careful not to burn the bottom.
Remove from the oven once baked and allow to fully cool on a cooling rack.
Serve & enjoy!
Cookies can be stored at room temperature for 3-4 days.

Serve with coffee in the morning or after dinner for dessert. Adapted from the Veganomicon, you can make these pastries vegetarian by using cow dairy and butter, or try making them gluten-free with a gluten-free flour substitute.
Ingredients
Yield: 12 cupcakes Time: 35-40 minutes
Jelly Donut Cupcakes
1 cup non-dairy milk (we used Planet Oat Original)
1 tsp apple cider vinegar
2. Tbs cornstarch
1 1/12 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/3 cup vegan butter, melted (we used Smart Balance)
3/4 cup granulated sugar
2 tsp vanilla extract
Raspberry jam or preserves (or another jam of your choosing)
Confectioner’s sugar (for topping)
Directions
Preheat the oven to 350ºF and line a 12-muffin tin with cupcake liners.
Then, in a small mixing bowl, combine the non-dairy milk, apple cider vinegar, and cornstarch. Whisk together until well-combined and then set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, sift or whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
Once the dry ingredients are mixed, create a well in the center of the bowl by parting the flour around to the sides of the bowl.
Then, pour the milk mixture into the well and begin to whisk together, being sure to remove clumps of flour.
Next, whisk in the melted vegan butter, vanilla extract, and sugar and combine until the batter is smooth.
Evenly distribute the batter into the muffin liners. Each should be filled about 3/4 of the way full.
And then, with your jam, take a heaping teaspoon of jam and plop it on top of the batter in the center. Don’t push the jam down into the batter.
Place the cupcakes in the oven and bake for 21-23 minutes.
Once baked, remove them from the oven and allow them to cool completely on a wire rack. It is best to leave the cupcakes out at room temperature (preferably overnight) to allow the top to dry a bit, like a donut. But, you can serve immediately once cooled.
Top with powdered sugar before enjoying and serve with coffee if desired!
Store at room temperature for up to 4 days or in the refrigerator for 5-7 days.
