Ingredients you will need:

2 1/4 cup oat flour

1/4 tsp fine sea salt

1 tsp baking soda

½ teaspoon baking powder

1/2 cup coconut sugar

½ cup brown sugar

1/2 cup peanut butter

1/4 cup slightly softened vegan butter

1/4 cup canola oil

1/4 cup nondairy milk

2 tbsp pure maple syrup

1/2 tbsp vanilla extract

1 cup nondairy chocolate chips

1/2 cup vegan mini marshmallows

1 cup vegan graham cracker pieces

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F.
  2. With a spoon, stir the oat flour, baking powder, baking soda, and sea salt together in a mixing bowl.
  3. In a larger bowl, use a whisk to beat the peanut butter, vegan butter, oil, milk, coconut and brown sugar, maple syrup, and vanilla.
  4. Slowly add the flour mixture into the wet mixture and mix well.
  5. Fold in the chocolate chips, marshmallows, and graham crackers.

Now it’s time to get our hands dirty!

  1. Roll the dough into 16 equal balls and place them onto parchment paper-lined baking sheets. With wet hands, lightly flatten with your fingers. (Wet hands help with the stickiness)
  2. To top them off, place a piece of graham cracker and a marshmallow if desired.
  3. Bake for 9 -11 minutes, until golden brown and let the cookies cool for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire cooling rack.

Enjoy!
