Vegan oatmeal raisin cookies

Oatmeal cookies are a favorite treat in my house. Since oatmeal is their cousin, they’re almost healthy enough for breakfast, right?

These vegan oatmeal cookies are made exclusively from pantry ingredients that I usually have on hand. Oats, gluten free flour, raisins, and coconut oil are staples in my kitchen, so I can whip up a batch of these cookies any time.

I love the cinnamon flavor and soft texture of these gluten free oatmeal raisin cookies. They’re a satisfying snack any time of year.

Vegan Oatmeal Cookie Tips

I use flaxseed meal to make an egg substitute for these cookies. To make flax eggs, simply stir together the flaxseed meal and water, and let it thicken while you’re preparing the other ingredients.

The dry ingredients are a mix of old fashioned (rolled) oats, gluten free flour, and spices. You can substitute quick oats if that’s all you have on hand. If you want to try steel cut oats, follow my recipe for steel cut oats cookies.

The dough for these vegan oatmeal cookies is quite sticky. I like to refrigerate the dough for 5 to 10 minutes to help it solidify a bit before placing the cookies on the baking sheet. Don’t refrigerate it for much longer than 10 minutes, though, or the coconut oil will re-solidify.

Drop the cookie dough in heaping tablespoon-sized portions on a baking sheet. Let the cookies cool before storing in an airtight container at room temperature. They can also be frozen for later.
