Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Rolled oats
- 1 cup All-purpose flour
- 0.75 cup Brown sugar
- 0.25 cup Granulated sugar
- 0.5 cup Vegan butter
- 0.25 cup Unsweetened applesauce
- 1.5 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 0.5 teaspoon Baking soda
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.75 cup Raisins
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the vegan butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until smooth and fluffy.
Add the unsweetened applesauce and vanilla extract to the bowl. Stir until fully combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Fold in the rolled oats and raisins until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Using a tablespoon or cookie scoop, drop rounded spoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Lightly flatten each cookie with the back of a spoon or your fingers to ensure even baking.
Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown. The centers may still appear slightly underbaked, but they will firm up as they cool.
Remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve and enjoy your homemade vegan oatmeal raisin cookies!
