Make These Healthy(ish) Strawberry Peach Sugar Cookie Cups Recipe

Ingredients

  • 1 1/4 cups unbleached flour
  • 3 tablespoons vegan butter
  • 3/4 cups sugar
  • 1 tablespoon ground flax seeds + 3 tablespoons water (you can substitute with one egg for the non-vegan version)
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 can full-fat coconut milk, chilled for at least 4-6 hours
  • 2 tablespoons vegan butter (you can substitute with coconut oil too!)
  • 1 cup (roughly) powdered sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon arrowroot powder (optional)
  • 1 container strawberries
  • 2 small peaches

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.

Mix ground flax seeds and water in a small bowl, and set aside for 5-10 minutes. Let it thicken to the consistency of a raw egg.

Cream your butter, sugar and flax egg until your mixture is smooth.

Add in your dry ingredients, and mix well until you have a doughy consistency.

Put the dough in the fridge for approximately 20 minutes to stiffen.

Roll the dough into small balls, and place them in mini cupcake tins.

Bake for 10-13 minutes.

Set aside and let cool. While they are cooling, you can start your cool whip.

Pour can of coconut milk into a mixing bowl. You can omit some of the liquid if you want more of a frosting-like consistency.

Add softened butter, and mix well with a hand mixer.

Slowly add powdered sugar one tablespoon at a time until you reach the consistency desired.

Add arrowroot powder to stiffen the cream a bit (optional).

Mix in vanilla extract.

Top each cookie cup with a dollop of coconut whipped cream, and put strawberries and peaches on top!

Luckily, dessert options that are healthy and delicious run rampant, and you'll want to make sure to save some room for a bite of each.

There are more than a few things to love about Gilmore Girls: strong female friendships, compelling families, romance, the ULTIMATE cozy vibes. Every since time "Where You Lead" starts playing, it's like drinking a huge mug of apple cider, or getting a warm hug from my mom. It doesn't matter how many times I watch the series either, it always makes me feel more relaxed than I did before sitting down.

If you love the Gilmore Girls vibes, and want to find some more comfort shows to add into your rotation (whether you just finished your GG rewatch, or you're craving something familiar yet new), check out these 10 shows like Gilmore Girls! They feel like a warm hug too :).

The best cozy TV shows like Gilmore Girls, for anyone who'd rather be in Stars Hollow.

Reconnecting with her estranged father, and meeting a handsome new stranger, Maggie has to come to terms with her past while figuring out what her future looks like. This is exactly the kind of cozy series that will fill that Gilmore Girls void in your life — its cozy, loving, small-town vibes will make you feel right at home. And season 2 is streaming this fall!

Firefly Lane (2021) — Streaming On Netflix

Netflix

Just like Sookie and Lorelai, Tully and Kate are inseparable best friends, and the older they get, the stronger their relationship gets. And just like Gilmore Girls, this series covers tons of topics that we all deal with in our own lives: love, loss, and career struggles. Plus it proves just how much strength we can draw from our own relationships!

Firefly Lane stars Katherine Heigl, Sarah Chalke, Ben Lawson, Beau Garrett, and Roan Curtis.

Sweet Magnolias (2020) — Streaming On Netflix

Netflix

We get another small town drama with Sweet Magnolias, which follows lifelong BFF's Maddie, Helen, and Dana Sue. The women lean on each other during tough times in their families and their business lives, and just like Gilmore Girls, this show gets you just as invested in the teen plotlines as the adult ones.

Sweet Magnolias stars JoAnna Garcia Swisher, Brooke Elliott, Heather Headley, Chris Klein, Jamie Lynn Spears, and Justin Bruening.

The Summer I Turned Pretty (2022) — Streaming On Amazon Prime Video

Amazon Studios

If you miss the age of TV where we focused on relationships instead of magic or treasure hunts, then The Summer I Turned Pretty is for you. Belly, her brother Steven, and their mom visit Cousins Beach, and the Fishers, every summer. Belly loves Cousins, but not as much as she loves Conrad Fisher. And her first summer on the island as a young woman is full of dances, romance, and the ups and downs of adolescence.

The Summer I Turned Pretty stars Lola Tung, Christopher Briney, Gavin Casalegno, Sean Kaufman, Rachel Blanchard, and Jackie Chung.

Virgin River (2019) — Streaming On Netflix

Ginny & Georgia (2021) — Streaming On Netflix

Netflix

Nobody does mother-daughter relationships like Gilmore Girls, but Ginny & Georgia comes close. And things between Ginny and Georgia get infinitely more tense when Ginny realizes her mom is hiding a dark secret.

Ginny & Georgia stars Antonia Gentry, Brianne Howey, Scott Porter, Diesel La Torraca, Jennifer Robertson, and Felix Mallard.

Jane The Virgin (2014) — Streaming On Netflix

The CW

Jane Villanueva’s life gets totally turned upside down by an unexpected pregnancy (especially since she's never had sex). But while the revelation throws her romantic life into chaos, it makes her relationships with her mother and grandmother stronger than ever. It totally reminds me of Lorelai and Rory, and will give you the perfect amount of feel good emotions. Just like Gilmore Girls!

Jane the Virgin stars Gina Rodriguez, Justin Baldoni, Andrea Navedo, Yael Grobglas, and Ivonne Coll.

Hart of Dixie (2011) — Streaming On Prime Video

The CW

Doctor Zoe relocates from a big city to the small town of Bluebell (which sounds a little like Lorelai leaving Hartford for Stars Hollow, TBH!). Zoe has to figure out firsthand what life in the South is like, including everything from fake niceties to handsome Southern gentlemen.
