Equipment

Small mixing bowl and spoons
Measuring spoons

Ingredients

3 tablespoon rolled oats
3 tablespoon all-purpose flour
¼ teaspoon baking powder
small pinch of salt
2 tablespoon brown sugar
1 tablespoon canola oil or melted coconut oil
1 tablespoon oat milk or any plant-based milk
1 tablespoon vegan chocolate chips or raisins

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350ºF (a mini toaster oven works great for this recipe) and line a small baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a small-medium bowl, add the rolled oats, flour, baking powder, brown sugar and salt. Stir to combine.
Add the milk and oil (if using coconut oil, melt it first) and keep stirring until uniform. The dough should be crumbly.
Stir in the chocolate chips (or raisins) and then transfer the mix over the prepared baking sheet. Use your hands/fingers to press the cookie dough together and shape it into a large cookie of about ½ inch thickness (wet your hands if the dough is too sticky).
Bake for 7 minutes, then let the cookie cool down for 5-10 min so it can set and firm up.

Notes

I recommend using the spoon and level method to measure the flour, even if it is a smaller quantity. This will avoid packing too much flour in the tablespoon and end up with a cookie that's dense or dry.
When shaping the cookies, if the cookie dough is too sticky to manipulate, then wet your hands and fingers lightly.
A small toaster oven is perfect for making single-serve cookies!
Do not overbake the cookie, it should still be soft when it comes out of the oven. It will firm up as it cools down!
If you want your cookie to be perfectly round after baking, then use the back of a spoon or a spatula to help shape the cookie as you wish once just out of the oven and while still warm.
