You will be shocked that these chocolate peanut butter oatmeal cookies are actually vegan! Crunchy on the outside and slightly chewy in the middle with a gorgeous cocoa hit. Simply delicious!
In a small mixing bowl whisk together the whole wheat flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt till mixed well.
In another large mixing bowl, put in your oil, brown sugar, peanut butter and vanilla extract and whisk them together till the sugar dissolves.
Add in the almond milk and your wet mixture is ready.
Add the flour mixture to the wet mixture and mix together till a wet dough forms. Now scatter over the rolled oats and mix with a wooden spoon. Chill the cookie dough mixture in the refrigerator for approximately 20 minutes. Preheat the oven to 180 ºC and remove the cookie dough from the fridge.
Roll 2 teaspoon sized balls between your hands to shape them. Place the cookie dough balls 2 inches apart on a parchment or silicon mat lined baking tray. Press down slightly and bake for 14-16 minutes or until the edges of the cookies have turned a bit golden. Remove from the oven and let cool on the baking tray for 5 minutes before transferring to a cooling rack to cool completely.
