Last night I went to the party, where one of the hosts had a birthday a few days ago. Naturally, I decided to bake him some cookies as a present. After double checking to make sure he had no food allergies, I decided on Isa's Peanut butter oatmeal cookies from Vegan with a Vengeance.These cookies are seriously addicting. He hid the cookies after I arrived and didn't reveal them until late in the night. Everyone was raving about them and couldn't believe that they were vegan after that little fact was revealed. One girl asked me what made the cookies stick together if I didn't use eggs, milk, or butter. I find it interesting that people don't realize how vegan baking is so similar to non-vegan baking. (Admittedly, I felt the same way before I was vegan.) Yes, some recipes might call for tofu, but they really don't call for obscure ingredients.
What lovely peanut butter goodness resides in these cookies. I saved three for myself (hey, they couldn't fit on the plate!) and managed to eat them for breakfast this morning. Well, I ate two, had a hot chocolate, and then ate the last one right after taking that picture. They are definitely my favorite, and my go-to recipe whenever I want to impress omnivores. In all seriousness, I have never met an omni who didn't like these cookies. Score for veganism!

I will have to give that recipe a try!
Hi Megan,
I love these peanut butter cookies too. The recipe always makes a bunch which is great because then I get to sample some.
great job!! Cant wait to try these too!!
those are awesome cookies, I'm not surprised they were a hit. I do love that people think eggs are the glue of baking. Without eggs all the ingredients would just fall apart into an unrecognizable and disgusting pile.
