Instructions
1
Mix the ground flaxseed and water in a small bowl and set aside to gelatinize into a flax egg.
2
In the bowl of your stand mixer with the paddle attachment or a large bowl using a handheld mixer, beat the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until creamy, about 1-2 minutes. Add in the flax egg and vanilla, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed.
3
Add the flour, oats, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt. Mix on low-medium speed until just combined, then fold in the dairy free chocolate chips.
4
Cover the bowl and refrigerate for 30 minutes. Once refrigerated, preheat the oven to 350F and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
5
Using a 1 tablespoon cookie scoop, roll the cookie dough into balls and place each on the baking sheets.
6
Bake for 12 minutes, or until the cookies are lightly golden around the edges are set. It's okay if the centers look a little underdone, the cookies will firm up while cooling. For crunchy cookies, cook for an extra 1-2 minutes.
7
Once cooked, remove from the oven and let cool for 5 minutes on the baking sheets before transferring them to a wire rack.
8
Store oatmeal cookies in a sealed container at room temperature for 3-5 days or in the freezer for up to 2 months. Thaw for 30 minutes at room temperature before enjoying.

Tips & Tricks (5)
- Bloom Your Flaxseed 🌱Mix ground flaxseed with water and let sit for 5 minutes before adding to your dough—this creates a gel that perfectly replaces eggs for superior binding and chewiness.
- Chill Dough for Crispy Edges 🧊Refrigerate your cookie dough for at least 30 minutes before baking to prevent spreading and achieve those perfectly crispy edges while maintaining a chewy center.
- Brown Your Vegan Butter 🧈Melt your vegan butter in a small pan over low heat for 2-3 minutes to develop deeper, nuttier flavors that elevate the entire cookie's taste profile.
- Toast Your Oats First 🥣Lightly toast old-fashioned oats in a dry skillet for 3-4 minutes before mixing into your dough to intensify their flavor and add a subtle complexity to your cookies.
- Underbake Slightly for Optimal Texture 🍪Remove cookies from the oven when the edges are golden but the center still looks slightly underdone—they'll continue cooking on the baking sheet and set into the perfect chewy-crispy texture.
