Vegan Gluten-free Chocolate Waffles
Vegan Gluten-free Chai Spiced Waffles
Vegan Gingersnap Pancakes (a really old recipe but my favorite pancake of all-time.)
Fluffy Vegan Blueberry Spelt Pancakes
VEGAN DIPS AND APPETIZERS RECIPES
I actually have served these at the holidays and they are a hit with everybody.
Best Vegan Queso (vegan or not, everybody raved over this dip last year when I served it.)
Vegan Pimento Cheese (I can’t wait to serve this to my guests this year. It’s brand new and already getting wonderful reader reviews, so definitely add it to your menu.)
VEGAN SIDES RECIPES
Vegan Baked Oil-free Hushpuppies (These are amazing served with chili or soups. I always serve chili at Christmas, so these are a great side.)
Vegan Gluten-free Garlic Chive Muffins (I freaking love these, like clouds of heaven.)
Fluffy Vegan Buttermilk Mashed Potatoes
VEGAN DINNERS AND LUNCH RECIPES
30 Minute Vegan Mexican Chili (I have served this every year at Christmas for the last 6 years and everybody loves it.)
Secret Ingredient 3 Bean Chili (Normally I serve the Mexican Chili, but this year I’m serving this new chili recipe from my cookbook. So, if you have the book, be sure to make this. It is fantastic and my favorite chili!)
Ultimate BBQ Bean Ball Sub (This recipe is also from my cookbook and a fantastic meal to serve at Christmas. This went over amazingly at my cookbook launch party and all the meat-eaters raved over it.)
VEGAN DESSERTS RECIPES
Vegan Snickerdoodles (I’m personally making these for Christmas. This cookie recipe has garnished more attention and remakes than any other cookie recipe I think, ever, already in just the 3 weeks it’s been posted. Nearly every reader has stated it’s the BEST Snickerdoodle you’ve ever had.)
Vegan Almond Butter Blossoms (I’m making these as well at Christmas. This right here is my favorite cookie now for the holidays. I loved Peanut Butter Blossoms as a kid and these are even better. So darn yummy. I like them even better than the Snickerdoodles.)
Vegan Bakery-Style Cinnamon Streusel Muffins (I’m also making these muffins for Christmas. These are one of the yummiest muffins you’ll ever eat. One reader made them this month and told me they were the best muffins she’d ever eaten in her whole life. They are that good folks.)
Vegan Gingerbread Cut-Out Cookies
Vegan Gluten-free Sugar Cookies
Vegan Coconut Butter Gingersnaps
Vegan Gingerbread Cake (This recipe needs no introduction. It exploded last year at Christmas with reader remakes and is already doing the same so far this season. Just go make it!)
Vegan Gluten-free Cranberry Bundt Cake (Pretty much the easiest bundt cake ever and SO DELICIOUS.)
Vegan Gluten-free Chocolate Peppermint Cake
I have SO MANY Christmas Recipes that would all be excellent to serve over the holidays, but I picked these 25 vegan Christmas recipes (with the bonus Snickerdoodles added since it’s a recent huge hit with readers). These are the best and most festive and I didn’t want to overwhelm you with too many.
Also, 3 years ago, I created this Christmas Holiday Dessert Ebook that is designed for wowing guests. They are all holiday-themed and out-of-this-world delicious. I love to serve the Chocolate Peppermint Muffins and Double Fudge Chocolate Crinkle Cookies from that book.
Merry Christmas!
For Christmas, I’m making your vegan stuffed shells and almond butter blossoms (although I love the Snickerdoodles too). From your cookbook, I’m making the chocolate cake and going to try the orange-vanilla waffles for breakfast. 🙂
Oh yay, those are all delicious choices Linda! Mmmmm, those waffles, I need to make those again!!
Orange Vanilla Waffles?? Sounds yummy!!
Yes, it’s my recipe in my cookbook! 🙂
Merry Christmas, everyone!
Just a quick note for Brandi and a recommendation to anyone on the fence about purchasing the Vegan 8 cookbook. I just received mine from Amazon yesterday and it is fantastic! The photography is stunning and I just love cookbooks that provide pictures with each recipe. I may need to put on my stretchy pants because I have a feeling I will be diving head first into the chocolate espresso fudge cake.
Have a blessed and happy 2019!
True story. I was looking at this list and I was like “yes, yum, uh-huh, yum… Oh my gosh!” Jay asks”what’s going on?” I say “I totally forgot about these hush puppies! They are so good! Oh I’m making these tomorrow!” Thank you so very much for reminding me of the hush puppies (and everything else ??). Happy holidays!
I love vegan Christmas recipes and yours look so delicious! Now, I’m hungry for Christmas food again, haha!
Lots of love,
Bianca ❤️
Thank you very much for sharing. This is a beautiful collection of recipes! I love vegan Christmas recipes. I enjoy and love each and every one of your recipes.
Anyone know how to find the Vegan Gluten-free Chocolate Peppermint Cake recipe – the link says the page has been removed. I made this a while back and want to make it again for the holidays. Is this in the cookbook?
Hi Kelly! I’m so sorry, I removed that recipe to improve it, as I felt the texture could be better. I have not finished perfecting it yet. But if you want to make a chocolate peppermint cake, I’d highly suggest the chocolate cake in my book and just add some peppermint extract to the batter. That cake has the perfect texture and flavor and would work great!
