Seeded oat cookies

These crunchy, seeded oat cookies are not only vegan (i.e. dairy-free and egg-free) but can easily be gluten-free too, if appropriate flour and oats are used. They are so easy to make and perfect for snacking during the day or for breakfast, picnics and parties. I like having them with my mid-morning tea or coffee.

  1. Beat sugar and margarine, then add the flour and combine until you get a dough.

  6. Bake for 15 minutes or so until light brown.
