Notes
- A quick tip: oat flour can be easily made by blending rolled oats for two minutes.
- To make cookies vegan, use a flax egg: Prepare the flaxseed egg by mixing 1 tablespoon of flaxseed meal with 3 tablespoons of water. Let it sit for ten minutes.
- Store cookies in an airtight container for up to 3 days in your pantry or the freezer for up to two months.
- For this recipe, I used rolled oats to get a crunchier bite. You could use quick oats, too; the result will be softer cookies.
- A great recipe for meal prep or as a handy school or work lunch.
