Oatmeal Walnut Chocolate Chip Cookies
No-oil, plant-based, whole food ingredients
Servings: 18 cookies
Ingredients
Dry Ingredients
- 1 cup white whole-wheat flour plus 1 tablespoon
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 1 Tbs ground flaxseed
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 1 tsp salt or less, if the peanut butter contains salt
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
Wet Ingredients
- 1/2 cup apple sauce unsweetened
- 1/2 cup maple syrup
- 1/4 cup peanut butter preferably salt-free
- 1 Tbs vanilla
Add-In
- 1/3 cup chocolate chips vegan
- 1/3 cup chopped walnuts
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°. Line 2 sheet pans with parchment paper.
- Combine all the dry ingredients and mix well.
- In a separate bowl, whisk the wet ingredients together.
- Stir the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, and mix until all the dry ingredients are incorporated.
- Stir in the chocolate chips and nuts.
- Use two spoons to add scoops of dough to the baking sheet. I get 12 on one sheet, and depending on the size of the cookies, perhaps 6 or 7 more. They don't spread so they can be fairly close. If you want to make them more round and flat, wet your fingers and shape them.
- Bake 15 minutes.
- Share and enjoy!
