These are like the ultimate maple sugar cookie! I have made them 3 times. Refined coconut oil and Earth Balance butter replacement work equally well. Also top with flaked salt. Made them for gluten and dairy eaters and they couldn't even tell.

These look delicious! Just wondering if you’ve tested out any egg replacers in this cookie. Thank you!
