Baking cookies without butter - some suggestions

By

"Dear dashboard, I love home-baked cookies, but I can’t have butter. Most cookie recipes, especially chocolate chip, call for it. For years I’ve tried substitutes—without success. Any suggestions? —Marilyn Cianciotta, via email

We feel your frustration—who doesn’t love homemade cookies?! Many other readers have similar dietary restrictions. Fortunately, there are some good alternatives. Unscented coconut oil is butter-like in texture; you can generally find it in the health-food section of your grocery store. Canola oil also works well. For some yummy cookie recipes that use substitutions to delicious effect, we recommend Babycakes: Vegan, (Mostly) Gluten-Free, and (Mostly) Sugar-Free Recipes from New York’s Most Talked-About Bakery, by Erin McKenna.
