Ingredients
 
 

  • 1 Tablespoon flax seed meal
  • 3 Tablespoons water
  • ½ cup vegan buttery spread
  • ½ cup light brown sugar
  • ½ cup organic cane sugar
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ⅛ cup water
  • 1 cup gluten free flour blend
  • ½ teaspoon cinnamon
  • ½ teaspoon ground ginger
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 ½ cups gluten free old fashioned oats
  • ¾ cup pears peeled and diced

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F, and line two cookie sheets with parchment paper.
  • In a small bowl or mug, make the flax seed egg replacer: Mix the water and flax meal together and let it sit for 5 minutes until it forms a gel.
  • Place the vegan buttery spread and sugars in a mixing bowl, and beat until light and fluffy.
  • Add the flax seed egg and vanilla extract and continue to mix. Add ⅛ cup water.
  • Add the gluten free flour, baking soda, and salt. Mix on medium speed until combined.
  • Stop the mixer and stir in the oats. If the dough is too dry at this point, add a little more liquid. The dough will be thick, but it shouldn't be dry.
  • Gently stir in the chopped pears.
  • Drop the dough onto the cookie sheets in large tablespoonfuls. Be sure to leave some space between cookies. Flatten the cookie slightly with the back of a spoon. Repeat with remaining cookie dough.
  • Bake at 350 degrees F for 16-18 minutes. Allow the cookies to cool on the cookie sheets before moving them.
  • Makes about 20 cookies.

Notes

Nutrition facts are for one cookie.
Store leftover cookies in an airtight container. They should stay fresh for about 3 days.
If you don't have pears, you can make these with chopped apples.
If you can't have flax seed, you can use 3 Tablespoons unsweetened applesauce instead of the flax egg.
