In a mixing bowl, add flour, maple syrup, dairy free butter or coconut oil, almond milk, vanilla extract, and salt - if used.

Use the paddle attachment of your stand mixer, or stir with a rubber spatula, or use your fingers to rub the dairy-free butter or firm coconut oil with the flour. Since your hands are warm, the butter/coconut oil melt in the flour, gently forming a dough as you knead

If too dry, or crumbly, add an extra tablespoon of almond milk, if too wet, sprinkle a little more flour.

Knead until it forms a smooth cookie dough. Divide it in two pieces of the same size, wrap each in plastic wrapping, and press them into a circular shape.

Refrigerate the dough for 30 minutes, or until the dough firms up a bit.

Preheat the oven to 350 °F (180 °C).

Cover a baking sheet with parchment paper. Slightly oil the paper with a cooking oil spray. Set aside.

Remove the plastic wrapping and knead the dough again as it's hard and cold after spending time in the fridge and the dough could be a bit crumbly.

Place the cookie dough on a lightly floured surface and roll it with a rolling pin into a thin sheet of about 0.2 inch (1/2cm) in thickness.

Use a cookie cutter to cut out the shapes and place each cookie on the prepared baking sheet. The cookies won't spread in the oven but keep a little space between each of them to make sure they don't touch each other.

Bake the cookies for 8-10 minutes at 350 °F (180 °C) until lightly golden-brown on the edge. The longer you bake them, the harder they will be.

Let the cookies cool down for 5 minutes on the cookie sheet, then on a cooling rack.

Serve the sugar cookies plain or decorate them with my royal icing recipe.
