This is an Everything Oatmeal guiltfree cookie! You can edit this cookie to your preference. Add any chewy dried fruit like cranberries, raisins, blueberries. goji berries, or Chocolate chips. For a double chocolate version, add 1 Tablespoon cocoa powder to get a Chocolate Oatmeal chocolate chip cookie!
I usually add some almond slivers or chopped walnuts, to amp up the nutrition, so the cookies become an almost food bar.

I met up with some friends today for a baking session. We made a bunch of my Spiced Chocolate cake for all(which also featured on Huffington post here:), also made another version with sorghum and almond instead of oats and almond flour, and with a block of dark chocolate in the middle.. lava cake anyone! Baked up some Double Chocolate Oatmeal chocolate chip cookies(this recipe with chocolate chips and cocoa powder in the mix) and some Pistachio Cashew Almond cookies. And hopefully everyone found vegan baking simpler and funner! 🙂

In other great news, Greece bans Animal Circuses!, along with other countries like Peru and Bolivia. Amazing news for the animals forced to perform unnatural acts, under harsh conditions, constantly abused, life of fear, with little or no hope for a better life. Please choose human performances rather than animal acts.

I’ll always love oatmeal cookies, and with chocolate chips? perfect! 🙂
These cookies look fabulous! I am going to try this recipe substituting raisins for cranberry! Will let you know how it tired out 🙂
thanks Chinmayie.. do drop by a line when u do try them!
This dessert looks great! I would love it if you linked up this recipe to my blog hop for a chance to win a cookbook prize package: https://bit.ly/wJSl1h
Thats Matt. I linked it up!
these cookies look so hearty! i love how they are gluten free too 🙂 do they stay soft? i have a hard time with cookies that don’t have a butter (or its alternative) keeping them soft…
the coconut oil keeps them soft enough. if you want really soft cookies add all coconut oil and no vegetable oil.. those will feel crunchy out of the oven, but will stay soft forever after that.
Your cookies always look so amazing! Can I please come over for tea and cookies 🙂
High fives all around for Greece, Peru & Bolivia….now if we would only realize and follow suit.
Thanks Heather! We seem to be lagging at pretty much everything these days.. circus nans are probaly really far far away.
I love healthy snacks and breakfast options. Thanks for always sharing great recipes! Keep posting!Page, bookmarked.
i don’t like oats but i like your oat cookies pics.
its nice to know about greece banning animal circus. i used to suffer when i would see the innocent animals being tortured and forced to perform…. so inhuman….
wishing you a happy valentine day.
you can make these with some other grain flakes dassana:)
Hope you had a good vday too.
OH MY…I want these cookies right now! They look so flavorful and with a perfect texture. Happy Valentine’s Day Richa!
Happy Valentines day Laura!
i love how versatile these cookies are. i’d love a couple with my morning tea. it’s oatmeal after all 😛
I made cookies very similar to this yesterday. They were small chocolate chip oatmeal cookies with raisins and dates. We are not even close to gluten free (I posted all about seitan today), but I love to put oat flour in cookies. It gives great texture and flavor.
Thanks for joining in for the Meatless Monday blog hop. Have a great day!
