Oat bran cookies are my favorite! I love their texture but I also like them because you can make a batch and store them in an airtight container for a long time, since they are vegan and do not contain any dairy or eggs.
In this recipe I used dried apricot, since my older son likes it very much. They also turn out great if you use dried mango, which is my little one’s favorite! As you can guess, they have their own sweet requests and mommy needs to deliver! You can use your favorite dried fruit, since they all go great with walnuts.
We also use almond butter, instead of animal butter, which besides vegan is also very rich in protein and will also help our cookies rise a bit.
