Instructions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees and line a cookie sheet with parchment paper, set aside.
In a small bowl, mix flax meal and water. Set aside for 10 minutes until a gel is formed.
In a larger bowl, cream together peanut butter and brown sugar using an electric mixer. Add flax egg, vanilla and almond milk.
Stir in quick oats and baking soda.
Using a tablespoon, scoop out dough and roll into a ball. Place on parchment paper and gently press with a fork.
Bake for 8-12 minutes or until lightly golden on the top.

Notes

I left mine in for the full 12 minutes to crisp up the tops while staying perfectly chewy in the middle! Keep an eye on them as all ovens cook differently. Look for gluten free quick oats if gluten sensitive! Let cool before diving in and store in an air-tight container.

Here’s to a wonderful weekend, enjoy :)
