Vegan Peanut Butter Oatmeal Cookies
Another oatmeal cookie to add to your cookie recipe collection! I’m a bit obsessed with oatmeal cookies (my favorite growing up).
Some of my favorites are Thin and Crispy Gluten Free Oatmeal Cookies, Flourless Healthy Oatmeal Cookies, Almond Flour Cookies Loaded with Chocolate and Rolled Oats, and of course Vegan oatmeal Cookie Sandwiches.
These vegan peanut butter oatmeal cookies are so so easy to make:
- In a small bowl, stir together your flax meal and water to create a flax egg.
- Whip your vegan butter and sugars until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes, stopping to scrape the sides as needed. Add in the flax egg and mix until well blended.
- Add in your peanut butter and vanilla extract.
- In another bowl, stir together the flour, baking powder, baking soda and sea salt.
- Add the dry ingredients to the wet and mix until a dough forms. Fold in your chocolate chips and walnuts.
- Scoop cookie dough balls and place them on baking sheet.
- Bake and enjoy!
