Vegan GF Chocolate Chip Oatmeal Cookies
If there is one type of cookie that always gets a bad wrap, it’s oatmeal! However, you can make a fab oatmeal cookie that’s sans flour and low sugar! Since our babe is arriving in just a few days, I’ve been on the search for the most effortless recipes from sweet to savory, and an oatmeal cookie was just a must!!
In my early vegan days I would have a bowl of oatmeal with all the fixings and protein powder before I hit the gym. I did this routine religiously to the point that I needed a break from oats for a long time. Today I love playing around with oat flour as it’s so versatile and is the perf alternative to the commonplace white flour.
What’s fab about this particular cookie, is everything! It’s quick, easy, affordable, packed with oats, sans white flour, sans white sugar, sans even vegan eggs, packed with oats, packed with fiber, packed with protein, has a buttery soft texture, can easily be made in bulk, has minimal added sugar, is perf for any season, and is my newest obsession!!
If you love effortless vegan cookies or are all about oats, you’re going to love these new vegan Chocolate Chip Oatmeal Cookies!!!
