Healthy Vegan Oatmeal Cranberry Cookies Food

VEGAN OATMEAL CRANBERRY COOKIES (SUGAR FREE)

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375.
• These can be made with just a bowl and a spoon--overmixing will make them spongy, so start by mixing the dry ingredients together and then add syrups, oil, vanilla and cranberries.
• Spoon onto lightly greased, parchment or silpat surface. Bake for 10 or less minutes, until just turning slightly brown on edges--cookies may seem a bit too soft, but they will firm up a bit while still maintaining a good soft moist texture.
• Be careful not to overcook (or yes, they will be dry and hard)!
