One bite and chocolate-chip-cookie lovers will know they have met their match! (This recipe is from the book The Vegan Sourcebook .) Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups quick-cooking rolled oats (not instant) |
1 cup whole wheat pastry flour |
1 cup walnuts, lightly toasted and chopped |
1 cup semisweet vegan chocolate chips |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/4 teaspoon baking soda |
1/2 cup canola oil |
1/2 cup pure maple syrup |
2 tablespoons water |
2 teaspoons vanilla extract |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
2. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
3. Set aside.
4. Place the oats, flour, nuts, chocolate chips, salt, and baking soda in a large mixing bowl.
5. Stir with a wire whisk.
6. Place the oil, maple syrup, water, and vanilla in a small mixing bowl and beat vigorously with a wire whisk until emulsified.
7. Stir into the oat-flour mixture, mixing hust until everything is evenly moistened.
8. Let sit 5 minutes.
9. Drop slightly rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, about 1 inch apart.
10. The dough will be crumbly.
11. Flatten with your hand to 1/3-inch thick.
12. Smooth the edges to make each cookie uniformly round, gently pressing the dough so that the cookies hold together.

14. Transfer to a cooling rack and cool completely.
15. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
