Ingredients

Dry:

  • 2 cups oat flour (Or sub with all-purpose flour, or a gluten-free blend)
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • ¾ teaspoon cinnamon

Wet:

  • ¼ cup maple syrup 
  • 1 flax egg (3 tablespoon ground flax seed + ¼ cup water)
  • ¼ cup peanut butter, melted
  • ¼ cup vegan butter, melted
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 mashed banana
  • 1 teaspoon salt

Chocolate:

  • ¼ cup vegan chocolate 
  • 1 teaspoon virgin coconut oil

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Combine all the wet ingredients in a large mixing bowl. Then fold in the dry ingredients.
  • Dough will be fluffy and thick, if using all oat flour the dough will be a bit sticky. Scoop into balls and add to baking sheet. Optional: press down on the cookies with a fork.
  • Bake at 350 degrees for 10-12 minutes. Allow to fully cool before adding chocolate.
  • When ready for chocolate, melt the chocolate and coconut oil in a mug in the microwave OR use a double broiler on the stovetop. Drizzle the melted chocolate over the cooled cookies.
