    How to Prepare Oatmeal Breakfast Cookies [Vegan]

    1. Preheat oven to 350 F (180 C) and line 1-2 baking sheets with parchment paper.
    2. Make your flax “egg” by whisking the flax meal (which is ground flaxseed) with water in a small bowl until it starts to gel and become creamy. You can use a fork, a small whisk, or a milk frother. Set aside to thicken.
    3. Create the oat flour by blending ¾ cup of rolled oats on high speed until powdery. The texture will be more coarse than regular flour and that’s okay.
    4. Add the oat flour, rolled oats, baking soda, and salt to a large mixing bowl and give it a stir to combine the ingredients.
    5. In a medium mixing bowl stir the maple syrup, peanut butter, and vanilla until smooth.
    6. Pour the peanut butter mixture over the dry ingredients. Add the flax “egg” and mix until well incorporated. The dough will become quite thick, stiff, and sticky.
    7. Stir in the raisins, pumpkin seeds, and cacao nibs until evenly mixed.
    8. Using a 3-tablespoon ice cream scoop, (or your hands) make 16 evenly-sized cookies. Pack the dough firmly into the scoop or roll into a ball with your hands. This will help keep the cookies hold their shape as they bake. Pat into a cookie-shaped disk and press an almond into the top. Brush the tops with maple syrup (optional) for a pretty glazed look.
    9. Bake on prepared cookie sheets for 10 minutes. After 5 minutes, transfer to a cooling rack. When cool, store in an airtight container.
    10. Cookies will firm up as they cool down.
