Vegan Chocolate Oatmeal Cookies

It’s beginning to look at a lot like Christmas. Decorations are hung, we’re watching tons of Christmas movies, and listening to holiday music. It’s feeling very festive around here. Christmas is so much more fun with little ones, I think anyway. They get so excited about all the outdoor decorations.

All week my oldest was just thrilled to see the Nativity scene at the house down the street from us. It didn’t matter she had seen it the day before, it was the same excitement level every time. And my youngest just had to walk by the next door neighbors everyday to see the large snowman on their front porch. Watching their little faces light up as bright as the lights on the house really is the best.



Vegan Chocolate Oatmeal Cookie

Now that we’re in full holiday mode, baking cookies only seems right and these Chocolate Oatmeal Cookies are oh so right. Soft baked, chocolaty, vegan and so very yummy. If you love chocolate like I do then you will want to make these for sure.

On a side note I received a very early Christmas(and birthday, and Christmas next year)present- a new camera. Super excited!! I’m still learning, but I think there is improvement already.

If you try this recipe, let me know how it turns out! Leave a comment below or snap a pic and tag it @weelittlevegans on Instagram so I’ll be sure to see it!

Recipe Notes

My family prefers the whole wheat pastry flour/coconut oil combo, but the butter/cane sugar is tasty as well. I used ¾ sugar and found that sweet enough. Use more if you prefer a sweeter cookie.
