Vegan Oatmeal Raisin Cookies
These vegan oatmeal raisin cookies are soft, chewy, and delicious. I’ve always been a fan of oatmeal raisin cookies. After making a few different versions, I finally perfected this vegan oatmeal cookie recipe. Besides the main ingredients, it has touches of cinnamon, coconut flakes and vanilla.
After baking these cookies, I sometimes drop them off to my work-from-home friends so they can enjoy a quick snack with their tea or coffee. Or when I’m hosting an event, I’ll give away these cookies in goodybags. Everyone who tries them praises them highly!
First, we’ll mix the dry and wet ingredients separately. Then we’ll fold them together to get a crumbly cookie dough. Next, we’ll roll the dough into cookie balls and gently press them to expand their size. We’ll sprinkle some salt and sugar on each cookie for extra flavor. And finally, we’ll bake them. I’m very excited to share this recipe with you because it’s so easy and delicious.
