Instructions

  1. In a small bowl, combine the flaxmeal and warm water. Mix well and set aside.
  2. In a small bowl, mix together the flour, baking soda, and baking powder. Set aside.
  3. Using a hand mixer, in a large bowl, mix the vegan butter with both sugars. Beat until light and fluffy. Then add the salt, vanilla extract, and flaxmeal mixture. Mix on high for 2 minutes.
  4. To the same bowl, add the flour mixture and lightly mix until the ingredients are barely combined. Then add the oats and vegan chocolate chips. Mix well until the dry ingredients are moist and well incorporated, but do not over mix.
  5. Cover with a damp towel and let it sit in the fridge for at least 1 ½ hours. This will allow the oats to absorb some of the moisture.
  6. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F and prep a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  7. Scoop two tablespoons of dough, lightly form a ball, and place them 2 inches apart on the baking sheet and lightly press it to flatten it.
  8. Bake for 8 to 12 minutes or until cookies are golden around the edges with the middle slightly underbaked.
  9. Remove from the oven, and let them sit on the baking sheet for about 10 minutes to harden. Using a spatula, carefully transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely. Enjoy warm or at room temperature.

Notes

  • This recipe creates a fabulous base! Feel free to swap out the vegan chocolate chips for your favorite dried fruit, or add some crushed walnuts for extra texture.

  • Don’t use too much flour: Instead of scooping your measuring cup directly into the bag of flour, gently fluff it up in the bag, then use a spoon to transfer it to the cup. Use the back of a knife to level off the top, and voila – the perfect amount of flour.
  • Chill the cookie dough: This is important to help the cookies maintain their shape and not spread too much. It’s also good for the oats to soak up the moisture in the dough.
  • Don’t over-mix the dough: Otherwise, you risk dense/tough cookies.
  • Be careful not to overbake them: Remove them from the oven when the middles are still slightly under-done. The residual heat will cook them to the perfect soft, chewy level.
