Riri's RecipesVegan apple oatmeal breakfast cookies are the coziest snack or on-the-go breakfast for the fall! These cookies take only 10 minutes to make, are made with less than ten ingredients, and are so fluffy and soft! These oatmeal breakfast cookies are made with no refined sugar, which makes them perfect for breakfast or a mid-morning snack.
Ingredients you need to make these vegan apple oatmeal breakfast cookies
- Flax seeds. This will be our vegan ‘egg’.
- Maple syrup. To sweeten.
- Applesauce. To give these cookies more of an apple flavour and to add a little more sweetness.
- Vanilla extract. For an added pop of flavour.
- All-purpose flour. The main dry ingredient to mix with the oats.
- Rolled oats. The oats add a nice texture to the cookies and gives them a nice breakfast vibe.
- Baking powder. To make these cookies nice and fluffy!
- Apples. The star of the recipe. The main attraction. The ‘apple’ of this recipes eye.
- Chocolate Chips. These are optional if you’d prefer no chocolate but definitely adds more sweetness to the cookie since there’s no sugar in them!
What ingredients can I substitute in this recipe?
If you don’t have applesauce, you can use a mashed banana instead. This will definitely give these cookies more of a breakfast taste and would be delicious topped with peanut butter. Additionally, you can swap the all-purpose flour for whole wheat flour, although I have not tried it. It should still come out just as good, you may need to just add in the flour a bit at a time in case the whole wheat flour makes the cookie dough too thick.
How to store your healthy apple oatmeal cookies
Keep cookies in a container in the fridge for up to one week or freeze for up to one month.
