Easy Seeded Vegan Oat Cookies Food

VEGAN OATMEAL COOKIES (GF)

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350 degrees F (176 C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• In a large mixing bowl, stir together almond flour, oats, gluten-free flour, raisins, baking powder, cinnamon, salt, and brown sugar.
• In a separate bowl, beat aquafaba (using a handheld mixer or by whisking vigorously, which will take much longer) until light and fluffy and loose peaks have formed. (Add 1/8 tsp cream of tartar to help them along if not whipping.)
• To the aquafaba, add the almond butter and oil and beat or whisk to combine. (The mixture will deflate a little - that's okay). Then add to dry ingredients and mix until combined. You should have a firm, semi-tacky dough (see photo). If not baking immediately, cover and chill in the refrigerator for up to 2-3 days (the cookies will develop a bit more flavor and slightly firmer texture if the dough chills, but chilling this long is not necessary).
• Scoop dough into roughly 2-Tablespoon amounts (I like this scoop) and place on prepared baking sheet with about a 1-inch gap in between each cookie to allow for spreading. Press down slightly with your palm to form a disc. Then use fingers to tuck in any raisins that might be sticking out. There should be about 12 cookies.
• Bake for 12-14 minutes, or until the edges are slightly golden brown and they've puffed up and expanded a bit. Remove from oven and let cool for 5 minutes on the pan before enjoying (they will continue firming up as they cool).
• Store leftovers in a loosely sealed container at room temperature up to 2-3 days, or in the freezer for 1 month. We recommend storing them in the freezer once cooled to help retain their crispy exterior. These are so delicious when warm and dipped in homemade almond milk or a chai latte!

VEGAN OATMEAL COOKIES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350˚F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• In a small bowl, mix the flaxseed and water together. Set aside and allow flax seed to absorb the liquid.
• In a medium bowl, whisk the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt together.
• In a large bowl with an electric mixer, beat the butter and sugars at a medium speed until light and fluffy.
• Add vanilla, and the flax mixture to the bowl, and mix until incorporated.
• Slowly add the flour mixture to the bowl, mixing until each addition has been incorporated, scraping the sides as needed.
• Mix in oats and raisins until evenly distributed in the dough.
• Using a cookie scoop, drop 2 tablespoon balls of dough onto a prepared baking sheet. Bake for 10 - 11 minutes, or until the dough has just set on the top.
• Remove from oven and allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a cooling rack.

EASY SEEDED VEGAN OAT COOKIES

Steps:

• Weigh the wet ingredients into a saucepan and melt on a low heat, stirring to dissolve the sugar. Meanwhile mix all the dry ingredients well into a bowl.
• When the margarine is melted stir the wet ingredients into the dry and mix thoroughly. The mixture needs to be firm and not sticky - if necessary add more oats.
• Place teaspoon sized balls of the dough on a greaseproof paper covered baking tray and flatten slightly; allow room to spread - the baked biscuits will be around 2 ½" (6cm) across.
• Bake at GM4/350F/180C for 15mins or until golden brown.
• Remove from oven and allow to cool slightly and firm up before peeling from the paper before leaving to cool on a wire rack.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Combine oats, brown sugar, flour, chia seeds, cinnamon, baking soda, baking powder, and salt in a bowl. Stir applesauce and coconut oil into oat mixture until dough is evenly mixed. Fold cranberries, chocolate chips, and coconut into dough. Spoon dough onto the prepared baking sheet.
• Bake in the preheated oven until edges of cookies are lightly browned, 10 to 15 minutes.
