2tsp vanilla extract

1tsp baking soda

50g self-raising /OR/ 50g all-purpose flour + 1/2tsp baking powder

130g porridge oats

INSTRUCTIONS:

preheat your oven to 180C/350F

cream the butter and sugar together until soft and fluffy

add the egg and vanilla extract and beat until smooth

fold in the raisins, flour and oats, mixing just until the flour is fully incorporated so the gluten isn’t overworked

drop spoonfuls onto a greased baking tray, and leave room for them to spread out

We have rampant poverty, malnourishment, and preventable disease even in ‘middle class’ first world nations. The advice/expectations we’ve been raised on are not only now invalid but fucking cruel with what we’re dealing with. Mental illness is on the rise, with little to no support offered, even less for disabled people. 

Okay these cookies are AMAZING! I’m pretty sure if you’re a vegan you are probably in love with bananas and warm oatmeal, so these will be right down your alley!

I made these on a whim, because I was having some major cravings! And with 51 calories per cookie you can satisfy your sweet tooth!

Ingredients: -1 banana -1 cup rolled oats -3 stevia packets -dash of cinnamon -dash of allspice -dash of cloves -1tbsp vanilla extract -1tsp baking powder -1 pinch of pink Himalayan salt

Directions: Mash banana with a fork and add in spices, salt, baking powder, sweetener of choice, and vanilla extract. Separately, mix up the oatmeal in a blender until it becomes a coarse powder (doesn’t have to be completely fine). Add in the oat flour and mix. Distribute the cookies on an ungreased baking tray and put in the oven at 375 degrees Faranheit for 15-20min.

This recipe makes 8 cookies.
