Everything Cookies

These cookies are packed with coconut, chocolate chips and pecan pieces — yum! I am amazed at how delicious vegan cookies can be. There really is no need to use the conventional butter, eggs and refined sugar routine when making cookies — it’s only a matter of time before the world figures this out!

Here’s what you need:

• 2 cups organic oats
• 2 cups whole wheat pastry flour
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
• 2/3 cup canola oil
• 1 cup Sucanat
• 1/2 cup rice milk
• 1 Tablespoon flax meal
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 cup unsweetened, shredded coconut
• 1 cup chopped pecans
• 1 cup non-dairy chocolate chips

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line two cookie sheets with parchment paper.
2. In a medium bowl, mix the oats, flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt and cinnamon. Set aside.
3. In a large bowl beat together the oil, sucanat, rice milk, flax meal and vanilla. Mix in the flour mixture. Fold in the coconut, chocolate chips and pecans.
4. Form the dough into cookies and space a couple inches apart on the baking sheets. Bake for 14-16 minutes, and allow to cool for 5 minutes on the sheet before removing.
