Chocolate Chip Peanut Butter Oat Cookies
created by Snacking Squirrel -vegan-wheat free-
In a bowl, measure out 2 cups of spelt flour (or any other type)
Add 2 cups of oats (quick oats, rolled oats, or oat flakes)
Stir in 2 teaspoons baking powder and 1 teaspoon salt
In a seperate bowl, mix together 1/4 cup oil (I used olive), 1 cup
brown sugar, 3/4 cup peanut butter (or almond butter),
1/2 cup soy or almond milk, and 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
Doesn't have to be perfectly mixed, just enough to get messy!
Before adding the wet ingredients, feel free to add in as many
chocolate chips as you'd like. I used 1 cup dark chocolate chips
Use your muscles to mix the wet and dry ingredients together
On a non-stick baking sheet, or one lightly sprayed with oil,
you want to roll the cookies into "big balls" lol.. usually its about
1/3 of a cup of dough rolled together... then flatten into disks
Note: If the cookies are crumbling, add some water to the batch
Preheat oven to 350 Fahrenheit and bake for 20-25 minutes
These cookies are SERIOUSLY SIMPLE and fairly healthy!
makes 7-8 monstrous cookies

Thanks for sharing the recipe. These sound great! Have you tried subbing apple sauce or smashed bananas for the oil by chance? Just curious.
Those look awesome- classic chocolate chip are my favorite! If I lived near you, I'd be popping in all the time for these... and the pleasant conversation of course! ;)
Chocolate chip + PB + oats? YES PLEASE!! Delicious!
Oh, yum - these look amazing!! Thanks for posting - definitely bookmarking :) I love recipes calling for spelt flour.
Chocolate chip oatmeal cookies are my favorite kind of cookie. Thanks for the recipe, girl! I've been wanting to bake up a batch of muffins or cookies, but the weather has been too darn hot to be slaving away in the kitchen. I guess I shouldn't complain, but it would be nice to have some cookies along with my sunshine!
Wow thats all i have to say!
Thanks for the great recipe! I love that you make giant cookies just like me. Don't you think they look all the more inviting and just seem to say "eat me"? Who could resist such amazing cookies as yours?!
Have a lovely day!
xox
Mmmm seriously Kelsey, these look dangerously delicious. I am sure your bro and his gf loved them! I will definitely try to make them soon!
Oh these look so good! I have to bookmark that recipe.
ps. thanks for your comment on my last blog post. You're a darling!
OMGEEEE! You always have been drooling over your baked yummies! I'm going to be cleaning out my baking cupboard today so I'll definitely have to try these if I still have ingredients that I need to use up. Thanks for sharing the recipe hun!!

these are glorious!!!!!!!!!!!
for me, b/c spelt still contains gluten, this is a no-go. But...i think i could grind 2c of oats into oat flour and then use 2 c whole oats and roll it that way. I bet adding raisins would be fun too! Gosh, so many ways to do this! I love how they are like little patties, rather than cookies. 20-25 mins is a long time, so i know they are dense and good and probably really moist from the PB. Ok i need to make these!
looks so good! i would throw in some dried cranberries in there too, because I LOOOVE them!!

Mmmmmmmmmmmm, I would love one of those cookies right about now!!!!

Those cookies sound and look amazing!
One question: Spelt flour has gluten. Do you find that the cookies bother your tummy? I know that you have gluten intolerance and I think I do too, so I'm staying away from gluten right now. Just wondering if you have problems with spelt.
You are so creative and really great with recipe creation. I don't know how you do it, but you're awesome. xoox <3
Yum, these look delicious. Loved your previous post too. Your brother looks a lot like you. Thanks for posting this recipe, I love that it has simple, wholesome ingredients. You have a great way with words, too.
this is a winning recipe
1. i have every single ingredient handy
2. it has great ingredients that are totally wholesome and awesome for you
3. they look FABULOUS
i need to recreate this very soon.
I bookmarked this recipe! It looks delicious. Almond butter/peanut butter and chocolate? yes, please!
Have not made vegan cookies and im vegan thats lame i will definitely be trying this recipe!!! Thanks for sharing it, they look really good!! <3
Things I like from this post:
1. your PB jar has pictures of the nuts on it (not to be mistaken with beans from far away)
2. the vanilla mix looks like coffee and has desirable bubbles in it
3. you wrote it (duh)
These sound AND look fantastic!! I am a huge fan of anything with both oats and PB. I love mixing PB in my oats in the morning, or almond butter. Such a great combo!
What a great sounding recipe...and it's easy and healthy. What could be better?
I'm always confused when I see "wheat-free" does that also mean "gluten-free?"
Yum! What a beautifully simple recipe! I can't wait to try these :) It's funny cause I also use olive oil when making my cookies....I find it to be "lighter" you know?
XXOO
Ooh thanks for this recipe! I have never tried olive oil in baked goods but I'm sure it's great. Oatmeal choco chip = MY FAVE!
Hurrah! Thank you for sharing such a wonderful and healthy recipe :)
i love your blog :X:X:X
