Vegan Cowboy Cookies Healthy Version Recipes

Steps:

• In a medium sized bowl combine oats, flours, baking soda, baking powder and salt. Set aside.
• In a second bowl beat together water, splenda, brown sugar, soy pudding, flax seeds and vanilla using a wire whisk.
• Fold in half of the flour mixture to moisten, then fold in second half. Just before mixture is completely combined, fold in coconut, chocolate chips and pecans. Mixture will be quite runny, but should be managable using a tbs and your fingers. If its too wet, add a few more oats or more flour.
• For each cookie drop 1 heaping tbs of dough onto a paper-lined or greased cookie sheet. Leave about 2 inches of space between each cookie and flatten slightly with moistened fingers.
• Bake in the preheated oven at 350°F/180°C for 14-16 minutes until edges start to brown.
• Let the cookies rest on the cookie sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to wire racks to cool completely.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325.
• Let the dates soak in the hot water until softened, about ten minutes.
• Meanwhile, mix together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon in a bowl.
• In a separate bowl, beat the beans until mashed.
• Blend or food process the dates until a thick paste is formed. An immersion blender is helpful for this step.
• Add the melted butter, date paste, white sugar, eggs, and vanilla to the beans one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
• Gradually stir in the flour mixture until just combined.
• Stir in the chocolate chips, oats, coconut and pecans.
• Drop cookies by spoonfuls onto ungreased baking sheet and flatten some because they will not spread out naturally, and bake for 9-10 minutes. Even if the cookies do not look quite done, take them out and let them cool for 10 minutes on the baking sheet, during which time they should finish cooking. (I am not talking about really undone cookies, just ones that look like they need a minute or two more to bake).
• Tip: I can never eat an entire batch of cookies before they go bad, so I bake up what I want right away, form the rest of the dough into cookie-sized balls or discs, and freeze them in a container between layers of waxed paper. You only have to add a minute or two more to the baking time for frozen cookie dough.

Steps:

• In a medium sized bowl combine oats, flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt. Set aside.
• In a second bowl beat together oil, sugar, brown sugar, milk, flax seeds and vanilla using a wire whisk.
• Fold in half of the flour mixture to moisten, then fold in second half. Just before mixture is completely combined, fold in coconut, chocolate chips and pecans.
• For each cookie drop 1/4 cup of dough (about the size of a golf ball) onto a paper-lined or greased cookie sheet. Leave about 2 inches of space between each cookie and flatten slightly with moistened fingers (or moistened back of measugin cup).
• Bake in the preheated oven at 350°F/180°C for 14-16 minutes until edges start to brown.
• Let the cookies rest on the cookie sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to wire racks to cool completely.
