Ingredients
¾cupsrolled oats
2tablespoonswhole wheat flour(you can substitute gluten-free flour)
¼teaspoonbaking soda
2tablespoonsbrown sugar
1tablespoongranulated sugar
1tablespoonmelted butter(you can substitute a non-dairy margarine)
2tablespoonsskim milk(you can substitute a non-dairy milk)
½teaspoonvanilla extract
2tablespoonsmilk chocolate chips(you can substitute non-dairy chocolate chips)
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350F/180C and stir all the ingredients together in a medium-sized bow. If the cookie dough feels a little dry, add more milk 1 teaspoon at a time until it takes on a strong enough consistency so you can roll the dough into balls.
Evenly divide the cookie dough into 12 pieces and roll each one into a ball. Line a baking tray with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat and lay the balls out onto the lined baking tray. Press each ball down slightly with your palm to create a more cookie-like shape. These cookies don't spread very much.
Bake the cookies for 14 minutes until they just begin to brown. Leave to cool on the baking tray (they'll carry on cooking a little longer on the tray) until they reach room temperature.
