ingredients

236.59 ml oat flour
177.44 ml old fashioned oats
2.46 ml baking powder
1.64 ml baking soda
2.46 ml salt
118.29 ml raw sugar
78.78 ml canola oil
78.78 ml soymilk, plain
2.46 ml vanilla extract
1 banana, ripe, cut into small pieces
59.14 ml walnuts, chopped (or another favorite nut)
78.78 ml semisweet vegan chocolate chips (such as Tropical Source)

directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Combine first 6 ingredients in a bowl. Whisk together oil, soy milk and vanilla in a separate bowl. Add wet mixture to dry ingredients; stir to combine. Fold in banana, walnuts and chocolate chips.
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Scoop dough onto pan with a small ice-cream scoop. Bake 25 minutes or until golden brown, turning baking sheet halfway through. Let cool on a wire rack.
NOTE: Use this cookie base (minus the last 3 ingredients) as a blank canvas for other flavor variations. So instead of bananas, walnuts and chocolate chips, try one of the following: raisins and a pinch of cinnamon, dried blueberries with raw sugar sprinkled on cookies, dried cranberries and 1/2 teaspoon orange extract or slivered almonds and 1/2 teaspoon almond extract.

These are very good -- and the banana adds a fun and refreshing flavor to the good ol' choc. chip cookie! They taste great and are super easy. They have none of the strange flavors (or texture) that some alternative recipes have. I doubt anyone would notice that they're missing eggs and butter. They're a perfect treat if your child has egg or dairy issues -- or both -- like our house! Thanks for posting it. :)
