:O you should have used a stamp on them! Do you have a Gretchen's Vegan Bakery cookie stamp?

This is BEYOND incredible. 😊 Oreos in my country Mexico are technically vegan but there's nothing like making your own vegan goodies. Thank you! 😘

Palm oil isn't vegan :/

[@edyann]

@@Law-_ I'm in Mexico. They don't contain palm oil here!

[@Law-_]

@@edyann what seriously? 🤩 It's awesome, why didn't they do the same everywheere 😭

[@edyann]

@@Law-_ Right? Lots of unrefined sugar but no palm oil! It's weird but luckily, I guess! 😊

Hye there, as it may not be mentioned in the ingridient,but oreo has officialy announced that oroes are not vegan as they milk as cross contant,you can check this faq from their official website Edit:i have delved more into the depth of oreo being vegan or not,so i found that officialy oreo had to announce that they are not vegan bcuz they use milk in the same facility in which oreo and other stuff are being prepared,so basically they are not adding milk or animal directly into the making of oreo So now i have to change my mind,so it bowls down to vegan's own conscious if they want to eat it or not Personally i feel if vegan food is prepared in the same facility that is used for making non vegan food,then i am cool with it,intentionally we dont have to add any non vegan ingritient in our food So if i am gonna be strict in the regard that vegan foods should be made in a facility that strictly should restrict making any non vegan item,then i have to leave my home,and i couldnt survive anywhere Another ethical dillema for not eating oreos would be palm oil,but certainly we vegans else cant be directly linked to issiues of production of anything(now somebody will point out,then why not consume dairy,well again it is debatable,and i am against dairy,as by consuming dairy we are promoting cruelty inflicted on mothers(cow),calves,but as vegan wont be left to eat anything as most of agriculture land involves deforesration),it also depends on country to country manufacturing of oreos I will glad to know if why vegans should not consume oreo,in what respect,and also try to be country specific standards of manufacturing of oreo cookies

Now I want to stay up late and bake cookies. Can't wait to make these!!

[@jstamps9578]

Love your caring comments so calmly said and easy to digest. Then you present your recipe that looks mouthwateringly delicious, and being homemade rules!

[@VanjasVeganVoyage]

I am so glad you are bringing light to the horrible situation of sugar processing on the United States. Thank you for increasing the awareness!! You rock :)

[@SuperXrunner]

I really appreciate this. Thanks I always thought Oreo cookies were vegan. Wow

[@pineapplefriedrice9598]

Oh my gosh this is perfect! Thank u! I avoid palm!:)

[@Sochilinda]

[@nyxeum5317]

hi I love your Baker I like to watch you all the time I love to bake a lot I want to learn more about Bakery😍

[@rube6361]

Gretchen could you please make vegan madeira cake!!!! I haven't found any recipe for it on the internet and know you would kill it

[@TashaMoonie546]

I read somewhere that Domino sugars produced in some of their factories on the east coast aren't processed with bone char. So just be mindful of WHERE (if using Domino sugar) it was produced. I suggest reaching out to Domino to confirm which factories don't use the bone char processing method.

[@FKBUSH1]

New York is one.

[@mariag3994]

Well , you may want to use one part of starch , one part of flover , two parts of coco powder , 2 tea spoons of powdered sugar . Then no stripe then . Good recipe .

[@Themsbeatlesrock]

hey! can't wait to try these. do you happen to have a vegan butter recipe? Thanks!

[@GretchensVeganBakery]

Hey thanks! No I have made my own before, but don't make a habit of it. There are so many recipes out there that have done it, I didn't think anyone needed another one from me LOL :D

[@funkypunkypine]

Mmmm! Double-stuffed kinda gal here!

[@picantesworld7723]

Gretchen, they look great!! I always wanted to know what was the difference of vegan sugar I figure it was processed differently but now that you shared this fact that is really disturbing oh my gosh. That's like the bug juice with the Junior mints yuck!!

[@dontreadmyname3904]

Hey Gretchen ! I remember coming across this video 2 years ago and tried making this and it was THE BEST ! I want to try to bake this again this week ! I remember last time the filling was rlly sweet ! Can I reduce the sugar ? For the cookie base, can I use solid coconut oil for butter and stevia for confectionery sugar ? Thanks ❤ subbed

[@GretchensVeganBakery]

Hey thanks exclamation I’ve tried to reduce the sugar in the cookie recipe and have also used coconut sugar in the past because there’s so few ingredients in the recipe it’s difficult to substitute or take an amount out. Your shortbread cookie will be very dry and crumbly it’s not going to come together if you don’t use the full amount of sugar. I have used to be though but only half and half sugar. As for the sugar filling though you can adjust that to your liking that’s not really a big deal I believe the coconut oil should work as well

[@dontreadmyname3904]

@@GretchensVeganBakery hey ! Thanks for the reply ! Is it impossible to use stevia in this case ?

[@julieandannabellsshow8857]

I never knew oreos were not vegan!! (Btw thanks because I'm going vegan tomorrow and I was going to get oreos!) Your a life saver!!

[@GretchensVeganBakery]

YAY! So happy to hear this!

[@AussieAngeS]

The sugar is processed through animal bone char? 🥺 what the 😮🤭

[@Law-_]

white sugar in US yeah :/ Where I live (France) it's totally safe tho, it depends

[@randomgirl2865]

Not if it’s organic

[@PeaceLoveAndRico]

Look at labels! Sustainable palm oil is available globally now (I think). Our perspective is collectively changing. I am plant based, that doesnt stop others from adding animal stock to my soup or cheese on my salad. I know what I want this world to be for everyone and I am doing what I can to make the shift in perspective comfortable... by making familiar foods, only healthier. I love watching your vids!

[@alimon7421]

Thx

[@byronchandler5000]

Hi, Gretchen. Your vegan Oreo cookies look simply delicious. I'd love to see you make vegan multi-colored cookies with red, orange, yellow, green, blue, violet, lavender, and bright pink. Just 30 more days until my 30th birthday on April 19.

[@Dolcevita_bakes]

Gretchen you’re looking great! You looks so healthy and happy! Honestly, you look like you lost weight as well not that you needed to, you just look it.. but anyway, this recipe looks great! My next dessert to bake!

[@GretchensVeganBakery]

thank you! and thanks for noticing! It's been near impossible to lose a pound, but I actually lost 4 but it's been very restrictive :( I committed to a month of this, so hopefully I can get myself back into better habits, all the cake and cookies got out of control LOL

[@lamllemaussade]

I think the saying is, You catch more flies with honey - agave nectar in our case!!

[@WastedContender]

you're a goddess! Thx for the recipe :)

Cool video! Looks tasty

[@Cat-we3hh]

Cookie Gift Can Queen sells Sweetex Hi-Ratio shorting on Etsy for home bakers in small quantities for professional tasting icing. Just wanted to share with my fellow bakers a great find!

[@itsmemee5027]

You rock girl💪🏾

[@chucksellers8422]

I thought that powder sugar was just for icings. I don't think I've seen it cooked.

[@dolphinsdoitforshaz]

awesome thanks so much and you are looking beautiful. I am going to see if I can make a oreo mold so they look even more like the real deal. I get so angry when I see non sustainable palm oil in vegan products

[@Lamara5292]

You get more with honey than vinegar. 😋

[@dontreadmyname3904]

Hey Gretchen ! Thanks for your reply. One final question how to tweak this recipe into golden Oreo recipe ?

[@GretchensVeganBakery]

Sure! I would use this recipe for the cookie part www.gretchensveganbakery.com/christmas-cookies-best-sugar-cookie-dough-recipe/

[@alexandrac9536]

I remember when in US oreos had "beef fat" in. Can i do this with my food processor?

[@GretchensVeganBakery]

yes it would be fine to process it!

[@JJ-gw9vs]

Yeah America does have a messed up food market. Anything to sell the product

[@kalindazsiga1144]

The first time I used this recipe it was perfect, then when I tried literally 6 times making it again it's just not the same 😭. They are so crumbly and turn to dust at the slightest touch. I don't understand what I'm doing differently because they weren't like that the first time :(. I tried switching to vegetable shortening rather than vegan butter, using a combination, only using vegan butter, adding a tiny bit of water , adding more flour, adding less flour, adjusted the sugar, and tried chilling the cookie dough before baking. I'm getting so frustrated and I don't know if you check KZbin comments but I figured I would ask if you might know why this is happening? 😥

[@marianasanchez8250]

Is there any alternative for fat (flavorless oil or maybe vegetable shortening) ? Since I can't find vegan butter that easily on my country... The measurements would remain the same?

[@GretchensVeganBakery]

You could use shortening or margarine that is essentially what vegan butter is anyway, Yes same measurements

[@melissadorius]

I understand about sugar and the process that makes it non vegan. I'm curious what process is for confectioners sugar.

[@munajedski]

I believe it's the same for confectioners sugar. There are vegan options though. :)

[@mettelist8693]

How do you know whether the sugar you use in your baking is processed through bone char or not?

[@GretchensVeganBakery]

You don't unless you call the company, and Oreo has stated they DO USE BONE CHAR (here in the USA)

[@gabrielleruau6672]

Can I make these vanilla oreos by leaving out the cocoa powder?

[@GretchensVeganBakery]

yes

[@michelleaquino1806]

Can this be done with gluten free flour 1to 1 baking? I ask because substitution doesn’t always work.

[@GretchensVeganBakery]

Hey there, I am not a GF baker, some have told me my recipes work great with a gf 1:1 mix, but I have not tried it here so Im not 100% sure!

[@michelleaquino1806]

[@HaloblackopsTenken]

Is there any way to use something else than butter for the filling? :(

[@shanicemckay6761]

you can use coconut cream as well. :)

Can I use gluten free flour?

[@GretchensVeganBakery]

While I am not a GF baker, I have been told that my recipes work great with a 1:1 GF blend. I cannot verify this though first hand

Who is gonna tell her 👉👈 OKKKKK... so Oreos are already vegan hehe

[@GretchensVeganBakery]

🤩 lol, Technically not here in the US since the sugar that they use is processed through animal bone char. 🤷🏻‍♀️

[@teganmonthei2120]

Oreos are already freaking vegan

[@GretchensVeganBakery]

Yes! I said that in the video! Consider that some people may like to make their own, how about that!!?? LOL But thanks for playing anyway ...

[@staceyeatscake480]

Trust American to process sugar through and animal product 🤦‍♀️ thank God I live in Australia where we don't do that kind of weird shit

[@staceyeatscake480]

Laughing at ppl getting upset about plastic is ridiculous.

[@GretchensVeganBakery]

I guess you didn't "get" the irony of my joke, which was actually on me. Talking about being environmentally aware with all the ingredients we use, then I used plastic. Lighten up, you'll live longer.

[@gratituderat]

@@GretchensVeganBakery imma use my silicone baking sheets to roll them out! Can't wait to try! Do you know what butter is best regarding palm oil??

[@GretchensVeganBakery]

Yes good idea, I also tried that and it still stuck slightly :( but give it a go! From Earth Balance website: Earth Balance fully supports the production of certified sustainable palm oil. We are a member of the RSPO council and are currently working towards Mass Balance for our sustainable palm oil sourcing.
