*Disclaimer: This post contains affiliate links. To learn more, please go here.These vegan cranberry almond chai cookies are one of my favorites. We make a version of these cookies at work and I fell in love with them. They are so addicting that you can't have just one. The original recipe calls for different ingredients, like chai concentrate and hazelnuts plus a whole lot more things to also make it gluten free (which my recipe is not). But just because these guys aren't gluten free doesn't mean that they are mouthwatering and delicious!Not a fan of almonds? You can substitute them out for the hazelnuts like in the original recipe as I've stated above or you could even use cashews or macadamia nuts! Want to add in some white chocolate chips? That would be amazing in these cookies too! Cookies are so easy to make your own by adding in the mix-ins that you want and love into them. Use dried apricots or cherries instead of cranberries, instead of chai spice use just simple cinnamon or don't even add it in if that's something you'd prefer! Overall these vegan cranberry almond chai spice cookies are delicious and I personally wouldn't change the recipe in either way.

Above are some products that I personally use and recommend for this recipe and to have for everyday use. I highly suggest getting this chai spice from King Arthur Flour for this recipe. Otherwise another really great option is to make your own chai spice! It's super easy and you can find a recipe easily online.
