Ingredients

The following ingredients have 1 Servings
  • 1/2 cup vegan butter (melted)
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar (packed)
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/3 cup fancy molasses
  • 1 flax egg (1 tbsp ground flaxseed + 3 tbsp water)
  • 1 cup flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 tablespoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • Pinch of salt 

Instruction

  • Add the vegan butter to a large mixing bowl and melt it in the microwave. Set aside to cool.
  • Make your flax egg and set aside at least 10 minutes to thicken. 
  • Preheat oven to 350F, move the rack to the middle of the oven, and grease an 8x8 pan (I used cooking spray).
  • Add the vanilla, sugar, and molasses to the mixing bowl with the butter in it. Using a hand mixer on medium speed, combine until the mixture is smooth (don't over-mix). 
  • Mix in the flax egg. 
  • Add the dry ingredients to the bowl (flour, baking powder, ground spices, and salt), and mix until smooth. 
  • Pour the batter into your baking dish. Bake for 30 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. 
  • Let the pan cool on a cooling rack and do not cut the bars until the pan has fully cooled (at least an hour). Store bars in a cool place in an airtight container.
