Sarah's Vegan Oatmeal Amazingness Cookies

This vegan chocolate chip oatmeal cookie eats more like a breakfast food than a cookie. If you are looking for a sweet desert cookie for kids, this recipe might not work. However, if you are trying to eat healthy, preserve the environment, and indulge in a little yumminess, then this is an excellent cookie to bake! (I personally like the cookies chilled.) I thank my friend, Sarah F., for giving me this fabulous recipe. NOTE: For the ease of posting, I listed an egg in the ingredients. Egg Replacer works perfectly well in this recipe and it is usually how I make. If you live near Trader Joe's, their orange flavored cranberries are perfect for this recipe. Also, you can substitute currants or dried berries for the raisins.

• Yields: 36 cookies

Ingredients

• 1 1⁄2 cups whole wheat flour
• 1⁄2 teaspoon baking soda
• 1  teaspoon cinnamon
• 1⁄2 teaspoon salt
• 1  egg substitute (such as "Egg Replacer," etc.)
• 1  cup sugar (turbinado)
• 1⁄2 cup applesauce
• 1  tablespoon maple syrup
• 1⁄4 cup soymilk
• 1 3⁄4 cups rolled oats
• 1⁄2 cup raisins
• 1⁄2 cup dried cranberries
• 3⁄4 cup  semi-sweet chocolate chips

Directions

1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.
2. Mix all of the ingredients together. With wet-hands (or a moistened cookie scoop) put heaping tablespoons of batter on a slightly greased cookie sheet. Bake for 10-12 minutes. They will appear very soft after baking, but they will harden after they cool. Transfer the cookies to a plate after 15 minutes of cooling.
