Vegan Oatmeal Cookies FAQ

Can you use quick oats instead of rolled oats?

In a pinch, you can use either. However, rolled oats give you more texture and sometimes more flavor, so if you have a choice, try rolled oats when you’re making your cookies.

Why are my oatmeal cookies hard as a rock?

A number of factors contribute to the hardness of oatmeal cookies, according to the Quaker Oats website. The ratio of dry ingredients to wet ingredients could be off. The altitude you live in can also change the chemistry of the cookie and, therefore, the consistency. Mixing the dough too much or not using the right kind of fat in the recipe might also be culprits.

Why are my oatmeal cookies chewy?

You can thank more traditional oats, rather than the more “insta-oat” types for the chewiness of your cookies. Some ingredients, like molasses, also make cookies chewier. Sugar, certain flours, and sometimes, eggs – in your pre-vegan days, of course – can also make cookies on the chewy side.
