Gingerbread Cookies

Run, run, run as fast as you can... to make our vegan gingerbread cookies!



We love chocolate chip cookies. But during the holidays, it’s all about gingerbread!

These vegan gingerbread cookies get their warm spices from our Mellow Yellow mix, which includes ginger and cinnamon. You also get the added benefits of turmeric (a natural anti-inflammatory) and ashwagandha (great for reducing stress during the holidays).

And if you’re obsessed with chocolate (and who isn’t!?), you’ll also get your fix from our Chocolate Lover mix. This healthy alternative to chocolate is an instant mood-booster AND it will even curb your cravings. (Again, PERFECT during the season of infinite sweets!)
