You can also make these cookies gluten-free by using gluten-free oats.
I also make another variation (linked below) with all those ingredients too, both delicious though!
These cookies are pretty rustic looking and wonderfully crunchy. They are packed with Almonds from the milk and omega 3's from the healthy flaxseeds. They make a really healthy after school snack!
What are the health benefits of Almonds?
Almonds are a great source of anti-oxidants that help protect against oxidative stress. These powerful anti-oxidants are contained mainly in the brown outer skins which is a good reason to leave them on.
Almonds are an excellent source of magnesium and vitamin E. They are low in carbs and high in protein, fibre and healthy fats. Altogether a great ingredient in baked goods for a healthy snack.
Ingredients for Vegan Almond Milk Flaxseed Cookies
How to make Vegan Almond Milk Cookies
- Start by combining Almond milk with ground almonds, flaxseeds and oats in a large bowl. Then melt the coconut oil on a low heat, once melted add the maple syrup and cinnamon and stir to combine.
- Pour the coconut/maple syrup mixture over the Almond milk Oat mixture and stir really well to form a dough. If you need to add more Almond milk at this stage, do to get the right consistency.
- Roll pieces of the dough into small balls and place on the baking tray. Flatten each ball with a fork so they are nice and round. Bake for around 15-20 minutes until lightly browned on top. Allow to cool, make a hot steaming cup of tea, coffee or left over Almond milk and enjoy!
Can you freeze these cookies?
Yes, they freeze well for up to a month. I usually take a couple of cookies from each batch to freeze, then I always have a back up to hand.
