Oatmeal cookies, in my estimation, should be chewy. Crisp oatmeal cookies are ok, but when they are nice and chewy, then I’m really happy. This recipe, adapted from several others, fits the bill.
Vegan Chewy Oatmeal Cookies
1 cup whole wheat pastry flour
1 cup whole wheat flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoon cinnamon
2/3 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup granulated or raw sugar
4 tablespoons maple syrup
1/2 cup applesauce
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1 teaspoon vanilla
3 cups rolled oats
1 cup raisins
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Mix together dry ingredients (except raisins). Mix together wet ingredients. Combine and mix well. Add raisins and mix. Drop by rounded teaspoonfuls onto the cookie sheets. Bake for 12 minutes.
Makes about 3 dozen cookies
