Vegan Chocolate Chip Oatmeal Nut Cookies

Nicole_85's Note:

My favorite vegan cookie - while other kinds I have tried have turned out flat and unappetizing-looking, these seem to look and taste great every time.

• Total Time: 13 mins
• Prep Time: 5 mins
• Cook Time: 8 mins

Ingredients:

Servings: 24

• 1⁄3; cup smooth cashew butter or 1⁄3; cup almond butter or 1⁄3; cup peanut butter

• 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
• 1 cup whole wheat flour
• ½ teaspoon baking soda
• ½ teaspoon salt
• 1 cup rolled oat
• ½ cup non-dairy chocolate chips
• ½ cup choppedmacadamia nuts or ½ cup walnuts

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 425°F Oil a large baking sheet; set aside.
2. Whisk together first five ingredients until very smooth. Add remaining ingredients, and stir to combine (be sure to mix in thoroughly the baking soda and salt--you may want to stir these into the flour first).

Added a small banana, substituted 1/2 cup agave nectar (about) 1/4 cup of brown sugar for the Sugar, turned down the temp a little bit (to 400) - and these were ah.ma.zing!!!!

I followed the recipe almost exactly (used 2/3 c sugar) using peanut butter. The cookies came out good, but I did not find them as excellent as the other reviewers. They are dense. Also I would recommend flattened the batter before cooking, and maybe reducing the temp to 400. I also think given the peanut butter, the salt is not needed. Decent recipe, I just didn't "love" as much as others

These biscuits are devine... really. I reduced the sugar to 3/4 and that was very sweet so next time I'll be going down to 1/2-1/3 cup. I used peanut butter and walnuts and we loved them. They are soooo quick to put together. I also used wholemeal spelt flour. I made 14 bisuits (65grams each) and cooked them on a slightly lower temp for 13 minutes. If anyone is interested when made into 14 biscuits they are 7 WW points each. I will also try making them with sultanas instead of chocolate and making them slightly smaller. Thank you very much for posting
