We love oatmeal cookies! These vegan oatmeal walnut cranberry cookies are delicious and definitely on the healthier side! These cookies taste great and when they come right out of the oven, they are the bomb!
I’ve made another version of these cookies before our switch over to a whole foods/plant-based lifestyle. Whatever your choice is, there are two different recipes to choose from here on Great Grub, Delicious Treats: this healthier version, and one made with non-vegan ingredients!
These can also be made with dark chocolate chunks, or dark chocolate vegan chips, instead of the cranberries. Just imagine how delicious these would taste with chocolate added, still keeping with the dairy free way of eating. I’m going to have to make some with chocolate soon!

These look yummy, but how much ground flax seed and water should I use?
Hi Judy, I just corrected the directions. That’s so strange because I know I had it on there previously. Humm… Well, 1 Tbs of flaxseed + 3 Tbs water = 1 egg. This recipe takes two “eggs.” Thank you for drawing my attention to the missing info! I appreciate it very much! Have a wonderful weekend! :)
We love oatmeal cookies! These look delicious….Must try this recipe for sure…
Thank you Marcia, they are so good, especially right out of the oven! :)
These look great I love that you swapped out the raisins for craisins for a change of pace.
Thank you Linda! I totally agree with you, we love craisins! Thanks for your comment as always! :)
