Vegan Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies

You can thank cabbage and my editor for this recipe.

Thank cabbage because I was originally going to post a roasted cabbage recipe today, but it turns out roasted cabbage isn’t all it’s cracked up to be, (is it cracked up to be anything?) and it wasn’t a blog worthy recipe. (I only post the best recipes).

Thank my editor because she told me I had too many recipes in my cookbook and had to take some out.

So because cabbage roasting wasn’t super scrumptious, and recipes had to be cut, today I’m bringing you a recipe that was originally in my book. A sample of my cookbook you could say. Oooh ahhhh!

Vegan Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies! Crispy on the outside, chewy in the middle. So easy to make with no weird ingredients. Dairy-Free and egg-free. #itdoesnttastelikechicken

And what a mighty fine sample it is. These vegan oatmeal chocolate chip cookies are my idea of cookie perfection. Crispy on the outside and chewy in the middle. Sweet, chocolatey, eat as much raw dough as you like, dip that sucker into a glass of dairy-free milk, cookie perfection.

Best yet, they are so simple to make with no weird ingredients! This is exactly the theme of my book, all my classic favourite recipes made vegan with no weird ingredients. Because veganism isn’t really as weird as it sounds, I promise.

…Ok, I admit there is nutritional yeast in the book, but depending on how long you have been vegan, it isn’t a weird ingredient anymore.

I’m actually pretty excited to be able to share this recipe with you. One of the most difficult things about writing this book (apart from actually writing the book), is that I’m making all these scrumptious recipes and meanwhile I have to leave you guys hanging until next year. I feel so mean! I’m so used to sharing my creations with you as I develop them. Alas, you have to wait, but hopefully, these vegan oatmeal chocolate chip cookies will make it all better until then.

Since posting this recipe, it became so popular that I decided to make a video for it! Check it out (and my terrible dance moves). ↑↑↑

To make Vegan Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies: Add all those dry ingredients to a large bowl and whisk together.

Add all the wet ingredients to a bowl and use a beater to cream the vegan butter and sugar together. It will be nice and fluffy like this.

Now dump the butter mixture into the dry ingredients and mix together. When it just comes together, add in the chocolate chips and stir to combine. Feel free to munch on the cookie dough, vegan cookie dough is always totally safe to eat raw. Woot woot!

If you manage to not eat all the cookie dough and make it to this stage, take two tablespoons of cookie dough, and roll into a ball. Place on the cookie sheet and pop in the oven to bake.

The cookies will look pretty raw when they are ready, but you will know they are done because they will have spread and the underside of the cookie will be golden brown. That’s the secret for chewy cookies, don’t over bake them. Let the cookies cool to set.

Try not to turn into the cookie monster.

Course: Dessert
Cuisine: American
Servings: 16 cookies (roughly...depending on how much dough you eat!)
Calories: 217 kcal
Author: Sam Turnbull • It Doesn't Taste Like Chicken
Ingredients
Dry ingredients:
  • 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup rolled oats
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 3/4 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
Wet ingredients:
  • 3/4 cup vegan butter , cold (such as Earth Balance)
  • 1/2 cup white sugar
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup vegan chocolate chips (or sub raisins for oatmeal raisin cookies)
US Customary - Metric
Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350F (180C). Lightly grease a baking pan.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together all the dry ingredients.
  3. In a medium bowl, add all the wet ingredients, and use a beater to cream the vegan butter and sugar together. Dump the wet ingredients into the dry, and mix. I find different vegan butter brands have different moisture contents, so if you find the dough is a little dry, add up to 1 Tablespoon of water until the dough holds together. When it just comes together stir in the chocolate chips. Feel free to snack on cookie dough, it can be eaten raw!
  4. Take two tablespoons of cookie dough and roll into a ball and place on the prepared baking sheet. Repeat until you have used up all the cookie dough. Bake 14 to 18 minutes, the cookies will have spread but look almost raw, they should be golden on the on underside. Let cool on the pan to let the cookies set.

    I tried them and they were too crispy but I think I have the baking time figured out for the next bake. Quick question, when you used the butter was is room temperature or cold? Would that affect the bake at all? BTW shared with non-vegans and they were a hit! Love, love love love your recipes. You must be cooking constantly to come up with them all!

      Thanks so much, Lia! I sure am! I use the vegan butter straight from the fridge (I would say to soften it if that was required), and yes that could affect baking time slightly. Ovens tend to vary quite a bit as well, so feel free to take out the cookies a minute or two earlier so they stay soft. Enjoy!

    This cookie dough is so delicious they almost didn’t make it into the oven! I over cooked them and ended up with crunchy cookies, but they were still tasty. Looking forward to trying again and I love that the ingredients are all things I always have in the kitchen.

      It’s super hard to resist cookie dough! To ensure the cookies are chewy, they should look almost undercooked. Enjoy!

    These cookies are bombski. I tweaked the recipe a little bit. I replaced some of the sugar with a maple agave blend syrup and made the recipe organic. I baked six cookies, a couple for me and the rest for my family, but they were so good, they were gone by the time they got home haha. Cookies are my weakness. Thanks for the recipe.

    This is a really lovely recipe. My son (vegan) and I made a batch of these and also a batch of your other choc chip cookie recipe and tested them out on the family – two vegans and three non-vegans – this recipe was the unanimous favourite (the other recipe is great but we all preferred the oatiness of this one) and the three non-vegans couldn’t believe they didn’t have any egg or butter in them! Keep the recipes coming Sam – we love your ideas here in The Cotswolds, England.

    I used whole wheat all-purpose flour and Quaker Quick Oats and then used the same ingredients as the recipe.

    The mixture was still dry after 1 tbsp of water so I added 4 tbsps of water for them to be formable, I tried to form them into balls and they wouldn’t stick together and crumble, so I pressed them together.

    I pulled them out of the oven at 14 minutes and they were still in the exact form as when I put them in, so I cooked them for 4 more minutes and they were still the same form. The bottoms were burnt, the inside was dry, and they tasted overly salted.

    Where did I go wrong?

    • Sam Turnbull says

      May 19, 2018 at 6:21 pm

      Hi Caitlin, whole wheat all-purpose flour is very different to bake with than regular all-purpose flour. It is much drier and sucks up a ton of moister. Quick oats are chopped finer than whole rolled oats and are also more absorbent than rolled oats so that would have only added to the problem. If you try the recipe again make sure to use regular all-purpose flour and whole rolled oats.

    I know I’m super late to the cookie party — but all the great reviews made me try them. My daughter has multiple food sensitivities and allergies …vegan baking is usually a better way to go. I don’t know what I did wrong, but the batter was dry, I added both water and oil until it stuck together a bit. The cookies are crisp all the way through, not chewy. I was careful with the timing, as you suggested, pulling them out what appeared slightly underdown but golden on bottom. Any ideas?. The flavour is great I just hoped for more chewy -ness and since the batter was so dry obviously i need more moisture. (I used Becel Vegan margarine and spelt flour, not wheat but that doesn’t usually make a difference.j

      Substituting flours always has an effect on the end result. I don’t use spelt in my kitchen so I can’t know exactly what happened, but if they turned out crispy, it sounds liked they were baked a little too long. Sorry, they didn’t turn out for you and that I can’t be more help!

    These were wonderful. I made them a few days ahead of when I needed them and was worried they would be dry and hard by the time the event I was catering rolled around, but I stored them in an airtight container and they were amazing the day I needed them. The little bit of cinnamon added gave these cookies a little something extra, and several people commented that they were the best cookies they had ever had. Nobody knew they were vegan! Wouldn’t change a thing about this recipe! I will definitely keep it in my permanent collection.

    So technically I’m not vegan, but I can’t eat dairy. Usually I use “regular” chocolate chip cookie recipes and just sub in vegan butter for regular butter. This time, I decided to try out an actual vegan cookie recipe, and I was pleasantly surprised! These cookies were crispy on the outside and chewy on the inside. Just perfect! These are my new go-to cookies. You did it again, Sam. Another amazing recipe. Thank you!

          Generally, the measurements when substituting whole wheat or oat flour are a bit different and result in a bit different texture. I haven’t tried either of these flours so I don’t know the correct measurements, but here is an article you might find helpful. Enjoy!

    Finally done looking for good chocolate chip cookie recipes! This is it. Chewy, brown sugary, cinnamonny, fabulous and perfect. I always have these ingredients in my kitchen too, so I never need to worry about not being able to make them! I eat sugar once a year and is late November to January 1st! I made these yesterday. I’m making them again today. I feel no shame in admitting that my daughters and I split the 16 cookies (unevenly) and ate them for dinner.

I love them almost better than any other cookie…actually I am pretty sure that I do! I cut down the sugar just a smidge on this batch (did a 3/4 cup sugar mixture instead of a cup) only because I’m a wee bit sensitive to sugar and they turned out more than amazing!

      Cups are volume measurements, and grams are weight measurements, so one does not equal the other. I know a couple of my UK readers have picked up a set of measuring cups and spoons online so that they could easily make any Canadian or US recipe without the need to convert. Hope that helps!

    I reduced the sugar by half and used part whole wheat flour and these turned out great. The cookies have a nice taste. Ithe is disappointing to see that compared to the online nutritional breakdown of a Nestlé toll house cookie made with egg and butter and real chocolatestate these cookies are higher in fat, sugar and calories.

      Happy you enjoyed your altered version, Noel. There are many, many blogs that focus on health, but that is not my goal here, so I am sure you can find a recipe that suits your requirements more. I would also guess that Nestle’s serving size is smaller.

    Hi! Have you tried peanut butter in the recipe? Wondering how the cookies would be if I added a half of a cup of peanut butter? thanks!

      Half a cup of peanut butter would dramatically change the recipe, and without experimenting, I don’t know how they would turn out. I do have a peanut butter cookie recipe in my cookbook tho.

    Could these be the elusive perfect chocolate chip cookie? I think so! They’re chewy on the inside and kinda crispy on the outside, pure perfection. I cut down on the sugar a bit and the recipe still tasted great. This is my go-to cookie recipe now.

    Thank you for sharing such a wonderful recipe! So easy with simple ingredients. I made it for my daughters birthday party. Everyone loved it. I used organic vegan sugars, dumped the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients (easier for me) and used parchment paper on the cookie sheets. They taste even better knowing they are cruelty free and they really taste yummier than the oatmeal cookies I used to make using the Quaker Oats recipe with eggs. Thank you again!!!

    I’ve made this recipe about 10 times, it’s one of my absolute holy grail cookies! One thing I like doing is just using coconut sugar in place of the white and brown sugar, and also using a combination of applesauce, coconut oil, and earth balance butter instead. Thank you for producing such a great recipe though, even my carnivore family likes these when I make them.

    I made these over the weekend and they are so delicious! I had to change a few things to fit my dietary needs and what I had available (buckwheat flour instead of regular to make them gluten-free, cut out the brown sugar to make a lower sugar version and because real brown sugar isn’t available in Germany) and they still came out amazing! I plan to make these over and over again. Just a hint to anyone else reducing the sugar, though: if you do, make sure to reduce the salt as well. I didn’t and they had just a tiny hint of salty flavor that some people might not like in a cookie. Otherwise superb, and even with the gluten-free flour they held together really well and weren’t too dry.

    I have been making these cookies every weekend for the past month or so and they are quite simply the best vegan cookies I have ever made or tasted. Even my parents, who are definitely not vegan love these cookies and they are always a hit. Not only is the raw dough delicious by itself, but th finished product is a perfect crispy -on-the-outside-chewy-in-the-middle cookie. I also recommend replacing the chocolate chips with raisins which go very well with the oats and give some extra chewiness. Highly, highly recommend this recipe.

    Hi from New Zealand. Thanks for the recipe Sam, these were the best cookies I’ve ever baked! I replaced a third of the sugar with coconut sugar & reduced the overall quantity of sugars by roughly 20%. I also replaced the chocolate (don’t get me wrong, I love chocolate! Just not in oatmeal cookies) with cranberries. I also added a small amount of shredded coconut. Which meant I needed that optional tablespoon of water. Result: Cookies that were the perfect texture & sweetness (for me). Best I’ve ever had! Gonna be trying more of your recipes soon…

    My son is allergic to eggs, and it’s been difficult to find a good, chewy chocolate chip recipe that doesn’t involve eggs. So, when I came across this recipe, I decided to give it a go for the holiday season. The whole family loved them! Plus, when we made them, we made a double batch and froze a portion. After thawing, they still tasted great! Thank you!

    Hi from Australia!!

    I made these and they were soo delicious! We don’t have access to vegan ‘butter’ like Earth Balance and I get the feeling it make actually taste more like butter than what I have access to. I used Nuttelex which you could kind of taste in the biscuits but that was okay (it’s more of a vegan margarine)

    My non-vegan family also loved them.

Veganism is becoming a big trend in Aussie so perhaps you will get more options soon! So happy everyone loved them. Hi from Canada! 🙂

    These are amazing! Everyone has loved them, including my 3 year old. They’re the kind of cookies that I have to tell myself to only eat one and then cut myself off because I could easily eat 5 of them. So good!! 14 minutes produced crispier cookies for me, but my oven tends to run hot. For a softer set cookie I just reduced to around 10 minutes. I actually preferred the crispier ones though! After sitting out all night and cooling off they were less crispy and more chewey the next day. Delicious either way. Will definitely make these again!

        Here’s a thought: make the batter, bake only a few cookies, like maybe four, then put the rest of the dough in the freezer. Later, as you want them, bake one or two at a time in a little toaster oven so there aren’t a dozen delicious cookies there to tempt you. Does the recipe freeze well? I hope so…

    Hi! I made your cookies. I was curious on two things:

    How do I get the cookies to spread out and be flat? Mine were more 3-D than flat.

    Also, the next day, they turned out rather hard and crunchy. Did I leave them in the oven for too long?

    I’ve never made a vegan dessert before, so this is likely why I am having difficulties. Thanks!

      Hmmm… it’s difficult to know without being in the kitchen with you, but it sounds like you didn’t have enough wet ingredients or you had too much dry ingredients. Is it possible that you mismeasured something? If that were the case that would likely solve both problems. I hope that helps a little bit!

    You’re missing a wet ingredient. The cookies wouldn’t have even made it in the oven if I didn’t know that applesauce is a good replacement for eggs. The “wet” ingredients aren’t actually wet.

      Hi Jess,
      The recipe is correct as written, no need to add anything else. Sugar is often considered a wet ingredient, and when creamed together with the vegan butter, provides the moisture needed for the cookies. Hope that helps!

    Actually, I’m off Earth Balance. Do you belong to a Co-op that gets orders through a big provider like UNFI? I recently tried Miyoko’s Creamery butter and it’s FANTASTIC!. She’s out of California, and I don’t know if they go east of the Rocky’s. But, it’s worth checking into, in my mind. It is more expensive than Earth Balance (and I don’t know if you have a relationship with them….) but it’s a cleaner product, and it tastes better.

    So, that’s what I’m going to make my cookies with.

      Haha!
      That’s very cool, don’t think they have that in Canada, but I do have The Homemade Vegan Pantry by Miyoko which includes the recipe for her butter. I have yet to try it but I want to now! FYI I don’t have a relationship with Earth Balance, any sponsored posts are always clearly identified as so right at the beginning of the post 🙂 I hope the cookies turn out fab!

    I made these this afternoon. They were so easy to make, even with 2 bowls 😉 Came together quickly and they taste amazing. Couldn’t wait to try them when they came out of the oven. Tried one when they were still warm. Perfectly soft in the middle and crisp edges! If this was a cut recipe from the book, I CANNOT wait to see what was kept in it!

    Could you cook these as a bar cookie (all the cookie dough in a pan) instead of individual cookies?

      Hi Christy,
      I believe that should work just fine, it would just take longer to bake depending on how thick they are. Just bake until the edges start to turn golden. Hope that helps and that they work out wonderfully for you!

    How supremely amazing do these look? I know what I’m making tomorrow afternoon! So, a confession. When you said there’s nutritional yeast, I thought you meant in the cookies. I kept trying to imagine what you were using it for. Duh. LOL I can’t wait for the cookbook! <3

    Sounds yummy, and since my kids have been asking to bake cookies now that school’s back in session, I’ll definitely be trying it. Thank you. Can’t wait for the cookbook—how exciting to hear it’s bursting at the seams!

    On an unrelated note, much as I love your site, Sam, the new popup ads are really annoying. I do click through on ads and realize bloggers need to support themselves. But having pop-ups that defy my Adblocker Plus block my view of the site’s content as I scroll is just plain annoying—and definitely a disincentive to clicking on them.

    Don’t hate me for bringing this up, please. I’m one of your biggest fans, but I am going to call a foul when I see one. Thanks.

      Yay! I hope you enjoy the cookies!
      So sorry about the ads! I can definitely understand how that would be annoying, funnily enough when I go to my site I don’t get any pop-ups. Could you let me know what you are using to view my site (mac, pc, iPhone…), and what browsing my site with (safari, chrome…). I can then send this info to my ad manager and have the problem resolved. Feel free to email me if that’s easier 🙂

    There is some concern now for eating raw flour, you might want to check into this. I have read that in some cases, there is something they can get that they can die from, I guess there can be e coli in it. That makes me very sad because that was a total plus for vegan cookies but no more. Please see the link about it for more info

      Hi Gina, the worst part is that e coli of course is spread via animal poop so it all stems from animal agriculture. Not good news about the flour but personally, it doesn’t worry me too much, since you can also get e coli from fruit and veg, even the article you linked talks about that. Thanks for the info tho!

    That is exactly the way Emma likes them. Barely baked. You need new cookie sheets!
