GF, Vegan Cookies


Today I was looking for a little sweet treat (what's new) and I came across some Oat Pumpkin Cookies. After realizing I didn't have all the ingredients, I improvised! I love these because they are sweet but contain no chocolate (unfortunantly) and are refinded sugar free, Vegan, and Gluten Free! I used Applesauce in place of the pumpkin from the original recipe and it came out amazing. Unsweetened Applesauce is great to substitute for butter, oils, and sometimes eggs when baking. These cookies ended up tasting like a gingerbread cookie! YUM. Mine were also big and messy looking, but you can make them into small cookies if you want to get more out of the batter. Hope y'all try them out. I promise you won't regret it! :)

1 cup of gluten free flour (group up oats)
1/2 cup of gluten free oats
2 tbs cinnamon 
1/2 tsp of baking powder
1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce
1/2 cup melted coconut oil
3/4 cup coconut sugar
1/2 tsp vanilla
*optional: chocolate chips, nuts

Mix all ingredients and bake at 350 degrees for 15 minutes.
