Cookies and memories, vegan Sugar & Spice Drops

[ppfuf]

I make these every year for one of my brother in law's coworkers who's allergic to either eggs or butter, I can never remember which.
 

Sugar and Spice Drops
1/2 cup vegetable oil ( I use canola)
1/2 cup (4 oz) brown sugar
1/2 cup molasses
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons cinnamon
2 teaspoons ground ginger
1 teaspoon nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
1-2/3 (7 oz) cups flour
Granulated sugar, for coating the dough
Preheat the oven to 350F. Line baking sheets with parchment).
In a medium-sized bowl, beat together the oil, brown sugar, molasses, baking powder, baking soda, salt and spices. Mix in flour.
Shape or scoop the dough into 1-1/2 inch balls. A tablespoon cookie scoop can be used to portion the dough. Roll the balls in granulated sugar and place them on the prepared baking sheets. Use a fork to press a crisscross pattern into the top of each, or flatten with a glass.
Bake the cookies for 10 minutes, or until they're set. Remove them from the oven and transfer to a rack to cool.
