Vegan Kula Cookies

At the beautiful Kula Yogafestival, where I was teaching a few sessions the other weekend, it was all about community. As part of the community kitchen and sharing attitude we pulled out these vegan treats I had trialled out just before we were leaving – and they were gone within seconds. Several people asked for the recipe, so here it is. Rather quick and easy and delicious with either iced kombucha if you are on this side of the planet, or a spiced hot chocolate for all my Northern Hemisphere friends.

Do not fear extreme cold winters or melting hot summers – Trump says climate change doesn’t exist, so not a thing to worry about! Unless you’d rather believe Leonardo Di Caprio together with 99% of the world’s scientists that action is required… If you chose the latter – and totally acknowledging that not everyone is ready to switch 100% to tofu & co – just reducing your weekly meat intake, especially beef, by however much you can, will already make a difference. #LivingInPeaceWithThePlanet

Anyway, happy silly season, yummy cookies. Enjoy!

The science is clear. The future not.
