Ingredients

½ cup vegan butter or margarine
½ cup caster sugar
⅓ cup light brown sugar
½ cup peanut butter
½ teaspoon vanilla extract
1 tablespoon plant-based yogurt
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
¼ teaspoon salt
½ cup rolled oats
¾ cup dark chocolate chips

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 360°F (180°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, cream the butter, caster sugar and brown sugar together until smooth.
Stir in the peanut butter, vanilla and yogurt until well blended.
Combine the flour, soda and salt; stir into the mixture just until moistened.
Mix in the oats and chocolate chips until evenly distributed.
Drop the batter by tablespoonfuls onto the baking sheets.
Bake for 10 to 12 minutes (I baked for 12) in the preheated oven, until the edges start to brown.
Cool on the baking sheets for about 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
