Ingredients
Wet ingredients
- 150 g sourdough discard (½ cup) 100% hydration
- 150 g brown sugar (¾ packed cup)
- 100 g vegan butter (½ cup) softened or room temperature
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Dry ingredients
- 100 g rolled oats (1 cup)
- 135 g all-purpose flour (1 cup)
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon cinnamon
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ cup chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350ºF and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large mixing bowl, add the brown sugar, sourdough discard, butter and vanilla extract. Use electric beaters to combine the ingredients until uniform and light.
- Add the flour, rolled oats, baking powder, cinnamon and salt. Use a large spoon or a spatula to combine (do not overmix). Fold in the chocolate chips.
- Divide the dough into 12 balls and transfer to the prepared baking sheet (using an ice cream scoop works well). Do not flatten the balls. Bake for about 8-10 minutes or until the edges turn golden brown but the centers still look underdone. You want to avoid overcooking the cookies!
- Let the cookies cool down on the baking sheet (they will still be quite soft once just out of the oven), then enjoy!

Notes
- Storage tips: once cooled down, keep the cookies at room temperature for 2-3 days. For longer storage, transfer to the fridge or freeze them!
- For soft and tender cookies, make sure NOT TO: flatten the balls before baking, overbake them and overmix the dough.
- You can add more ingredients to the dough, such as chopped walnuts, raisins and cranberries.
