This Vegan Holiday Cookie Baking Class is the perfect way for kids ages 8-13 to learn the art of vegan baking while creating delicious dairy-free, egg-free, and plant-based cookies that are perfect for the holiday season. Whether your child is new to vegan recipes or has some baking experience, this hands-on class will introduce them to plant based desserts. This class is part of a series we’re holding across the holiday season focusing on making different vegan cookies, and teaching kids how to use plant-based ingredients like vegan butter, egg replacers, and chocolate. In this specific class, we will be making Candy Cane Cookies. Students will follow along as we guide them through the cookie-baking process step-by-step, from mixing the dough to shaping, baking, and decorating their vegan treats. While the cookies bake, we’ll share fun facts and general baking tips. This baking workshop is more than just a cooking class—it's a fun, interactive experience where learners can engage with the instructor and other students in real-time. They’ll have the opportunity to ask questions, share their baking successes, and get feedback as they make delicious vegan desserts from scratch. With experienced instructors, kids will not only gain baking skills but will also develop an understanding of how veganism supports a healthy and compassionate lifestyle. Whether your child is looking to master the art of cookie recipes or simply wants to have fun with holiday desserts, this class is the perfect way to kick off their baking journey or continue their exploration.
