You won’t need the usual butter, flour, white sugar, and eggs to make these chewy cookies studded with chocolate chips and walnuts. Instead, this blogger’s vegan twist on the yummy dessert features good-for-you ground flaxseed meal, agave nectar, and whole-wheat flour.
Ingredients:
1/2 c. whole-wheat flour
1 c. oats
1/2 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1/4 tsp. cinnamon
1 tbsp. ground flaxseed meal
1/4 c. agave nectar
1/4 c. soy milk
1/2 tsp. vanilla extract
1 tbsp. canola oil
1 ripe banana
1/2 c. chocolate chips
1/4 c. walnuts
Pinch of salt
Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Combine all ingredients in a large bowl, mixing well until batter is evenly blended. Use a tablespoon to portion cookies on a greased baking sheet, approximately 1-2 inches apart. Bake cookies for 10-12 minutes. Allow to cool.
