This is what you need:
- rolled oats
- almond flour
- vegan butter
- coconut butter (different from coconut oil, see here how easy it is to make coconut butter from shredded coconut)
- coconut sugar
- dark chocolate chips (if you use vegan milk chocolate, these oatmeal cookies become more like dessert)
You can bake these cookies on one small baking tray. Just press the cookie dough on a parchment paper on the tray and then cut it into bars when the cookie is still warm. Enjoy them with a cup of tea or coffee in the morning or as a snack, on the go, on a picnic, or as dessert!
