Ohhh sounds like we have got some good recipes going on here (and some that are a little silly but oh-so practical!)!!! This is one of my favorite recipes that the kiddos also love....
Soft VEGAN carob chip and peanut butter cookies
1 1/2 cups unbleached all purpose flour
1/3 cup old-fashioned of quick oats
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup chunky peanut butter
1 cup packed golden brown sugar
1/2 cup vegan margarine (such as earth balance or blue bonnet LITE)
1/4 cup maple syrup
1 to 2 egg substitutes (1 mashed banana, or commercial egg replacer such as Bobs red mill or ENER-G egg replacer)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
6 ounces of carob chips, or vegan carob/chocolate bar crushed until there are pretty small,
but still chunky pieces
Mix dry ingredients (first 4) in a medium bowl.
Blend peanut butter, sugar, margarine, syrup, egg replacer and vanilla with an electric mixer. (Tip: If you soften the margarine and peanut butter first by nuking it you can just blend it by hand).
Add dry ingredient mixture to peanut butter mixture in two additions. Stir in carob. Cover and refrigerate for about 30 minutes, or until it is no longer sticky.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees fahrenheit. Grease two large baking sheets. Roll balls of dough with hands into about 2-inch diameter balls. (Or make any size you want, just pay attention to baking time changes.) Place on baking sheets and bake for about 12 minutes. Cookies will be puffed and still very soft to the touch. Let cool and enjoy!
I stole this recipe from one of my favorite sites called vegweb....ummm so stinking good!!!! Happy baking y'all!
