These Chocolate Chip Oatmeal Cookies are fully VEGAN and simple to make! They turn out chewy and so delicious!
I’m about to make a very bold statement BUT I think these might be my ALL TIME favorite cookies on the blog. And I have some really good cookie recipes!
But these cookies- DAMN – they are good! Especially for how EASY they are!
These cookies are adapted from my original (and OMG SO DELICIOUS) Chewy Vegan Oatmeal Cookies recipe. I’ve made the chocolate chip version several times now and I just felt like it needed it’s own post full of love and praise. Because seriously, these are just SO GOOD!
Weirdly, I didn’t use to like oatmeal cookies all that much. I’ve really grown a fondness for them as I’ve gotten older and they’re one of my all time favorites now. I make these at home OFTEN and we never ever get sick of them.
One of the things that I love so much about these is that they come together all in one big bowl! I most often use my stand mixer for ease but you can totally do this by hand!
But first, let’s go over the ingredients:
- ½ cup (1 stick) vegan butter, room temp
- ½ cup dark brown sugar, packed
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- 1 ½ cup all purpose flour
- 1 ½ cup old fashioned oats
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/3 cup of plant based milk
- 1/3 cup of chocolate chips
I’m hoping to test out a gluten free version of these cookies using oat flour. But for now, I haven’t made them gluten free yet. So, proceed with caution on that one!
That’s all I have for today! Keeping this short and sweet :)
As usual, if you end up making this recipe, be sure to come back and let me know what you think! Or snap a quick photo and tag me on Instagram @foodwithfeeling! I ALWAYS love to see what y’all are making from the blog!

Chocolate Chip Oatmeal Cookies
Ingredients
- ½ cup 1 stick vegan butter, room temp
- ½ cup dark brown sugar, packed
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- 1 ½ cup all purpose flour
- 1 ½ cup old fashioned oats

I’ve tried so many vegan cookie recipes over the years and yours is the one that produces systematically excellent results! I love it so much. I always add a bit of salt and vanilla to the base cookie out of personal preference, but the texture is divine. I have also played with adding ground almonds instead of oats and the result is also good :) thank you for sharing!
Tasty base recipe. I added 1/2 c. shredded coconut, 1 tsp. vanilla, 1 tsp. salt, and subbed unrefined coconut oil for half of the vegan butter. They’re light, not too sweet (the salt helped a ton), and so yummy. Thanks for the recipe!
My 16 year old son said these were the best cookies I have made in a long time even if they had oatmeal in them. He is typically NOT an oatmeal cookie fan. Our family liked how these cookies were soft in the middle but crispy on the edges. I added a splash of vanilla when creaming the vegan butter and sugar together and added 1/8 teaspoon of salt. It just seemed odd to me not to have salt or vanilla in a cookie recipe. I also thought they needed more chocolate chips so I would increase the amount next time. We will definitely make these again.
