Ingredients

  • 1 cup oats I used old-fashioned rolled oats
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/3 cup shredded coconut
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon coarse salt
  • 1/3 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1/4 cup melted coconut oil
  • 1/4 cashew milk
  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup
  • 2 teaspoons ground flax seed
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/3 cup miniature semi-sweet chocolate chips*
  • 1/3 cup pecan pieces

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350˚F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the oats, flour, coconut, baking soda and salt.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk together the sugars, oil, milk alternative, maple syrup, ground flax seed and vanilla extract until smooth.
  • Mix the wet and dry ingredients until combined, and stir in chocolate chips and pecan pieces.
  • Using a cookie scoop to measure, roll dough into balls and place on parchment. Bake cookies for 10 - 12 minutes or until top of dough has fully set and looks golden brown. Remove from oven and allow cookies to rest before 5 minutes before transferring to cooling rack.
