OATMEAL HEMP CHOCOLATE COOKIE RECIPE (VEGAN)

Hi Everyone,

Hope you’re doing well! I have been OBSESSED with oatmeal cookies. I feel like I’m having one everyday.  Oatmeal cookies are the best because they’re possess some added health benefits with the fibrous oatmeal.  But I decided to add my own twist to the classic soft chewy oatmeal cookie by adding hemp hearts/seeds! Hemp seeds contain a lot of protein.  In fact 1 tbsp of hemp seeds contains 13.54 grams of protein!  This recipe is also dairy-free, vegan and egg-less!

For this delicious and quick cookie recipe (takes 12 minutes to bake), I am using Bob’s Red Mill Unbleached All Purpose Flour and Quick-Cooking Oats, MadeGood vegan semi-sweet dark chocolate chips, Earth Balance vegan butter, Manitoba Harvest Hemp Hearts among several other ingredients.

Well I hope you give this recipe a try and if you do, please share it with your family and friends.

Take care,

Christie
