WHY YOU’LL LOVE THIS RECIPE:

Single-serve dessert: Perfect for satisfying cookie cravings without overbaking (or overindulging).

Vegan + dairy-free: Made without butter, milk, or eggs.

Whole grain goodness: Rolled oats and spelt flour (can substitute with whole wheat flour) add fiber and a hearty, chewy texture.

Quick & easy: Just one bowl, no chill time, and ready in under 15 minutes.

Absolutely delicious: Tastes like a bakery-style oatmeal chocolate chip cookie, but healthier.

 

INGREDIENTS YOU’LL NEED:

This simple cookie calls for a handful of nourishing ingredients you likely already have in your pantry:

Rolled oats: For that classic oatmeal cookie chewiness.

Spelt flour: Keeps it fiber-rich and wholesome (swap for whole wheat or GF flour if needed).

Peanut butter: Adds richness and nutty flavor (almond butter works too).

Oat milk: Or your favorite plant-based milk, to help bind the dough.

Coconut sugar: My go-to natural sweetener with a caramel-like taste.

Vanilla extract: A must for depth of flavor.

Baking soda: For that perfect rise.

Dark chocolate chips: The more the merrier.


HOW TO MAKE A VEGAN SINGLE-SERVE OATMEAL CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIE:

  1. Stir together the wet ingredients + baking soda. Peanut butter, oat milk, vanilla extract and baking soda.
  2. Mix in the dry ingredients. Fold in rolled oats, flour and coconut sugar,
  3. Add chocolate chips. Stir in a generous amount.
  4. Shape & bake. Form into one thick cookie and place on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Bake at 375°F (190°C) for 10–12 minutes, until golden on the edges and soft in the center.

In just 15 minutes, you’ll have a warm, chewy, utterly satisfying cookie all to yourself.

 

TIPS FOR SUCCESS:

Don’t overbake. Pull out the cookie when it’s slightly golden around the edges and the center still looks a tad underdone — it will firm up as it cools.

Make it gluten-free. Use certified gluten-free oats and your favorite gluten-free flour blend.

Fun add-ins. Swap chocolate chips for raisins, walnuts, or dried cranberries for variation.

Double it. Want to share it with someone special? Just double the recipe and bake two cookies.

 

PERFECT FOR SWEET CRAVINGS
