ingredients:

2 cups flour

2 cups rolled oats

2 tsp baking powder

1 tsp salt

1/2 cup canola oil

3 T ground flax seed…….if you don’t have flax seed you can add an additional 1/4 cup of canola oil (i always put flax seed in baked goods, on salads, and in dips…..it’s a super good source of fiber and promotes a healthy heart and gut…..so “they” say)

3/4 cup of peanut butter

1 cup raw cane sugar

1 cup brown sugar

1/2 cup rice or soy milk

2 tsp vanilla extract

1 cup dark chocolate chips

preheat oven to 350 F. lightly grease cookie sheets.

toss together the flour, oats, baking powder, and salt in a large mixing bowl. in separate bowl mix together the oil, flax seed, peanut butter, sugars, milk, and vanilla.

add dry ingredients to the wet, and mix. the dough will be firm and moist. spoon onto cookie sheet and bake 8-10 minutes until slightly golden.
