I do not cook. There, I said it, and yet I still feel just a bit of shame. I’m not one of those mothers and wives who devours the latest cookbook and I am NOTHING like my husband. He was, in fact, the inspiration for this Vegan Oatmeal Raisin Cookie Recipe! I know you will love these as much as I do, and maybe your husband will whip a batch up for you too!

This is exactly the same method we have at my house! Adding in my husband’s food allergies and stronger desire to keep Kosher, it just makes sense that he does all the cooking. When he’s away, we’re more likely to order in or eat something simple because all of the cleaning responsibilities throughout the house still fall to me. And while I could cook if I really had to, if he didn’t do it, it would feel like every daily responsibility had been put on my shoulders. With both of us working full time and two small children, I can’t do it all alone. Glad to hear it’s working for you too!
Those cookies sound amazing. Chris LOVES oatmeal raisin cookies, so I should make him some. Or he can go on and make his own….
My husband actually enjoy cooking and the only baking he does is cookies. He loves oatmeal raisin cookies. Going to suggest he make your recipe so I can try it out.
Lmfao! Let me see if my husband is a REAL MAN then! 😉 He claims he is, but this will be the ultimate test.

I’ve tried to make this oatmeal chocolate raisin cookies like weeks ago. It came out good my husband loves it and requesting if I can baked again this weekend.

These cookies look delicious! And I love that your husband made them, he sounds like a keeper to me!
I never liked cooking until I got married ha ha. In fact when my husband proposed to me I said “But ” don’t cook!” His response was “There’s so many restaurants out there!” I eventually learned how to love cooking though.
I just made the same cookies yesterday but without applesauce. Yum!
Two points?! That is amazing! I love my husband a whole lot extra when he cooks for me. 😉
This sounds really good. I’ve made something similar with bananas and oats, but I like the idea of your ingredients, plus the raisins. Thanks for sharing – these sound like good cookies to make this summer to fuel the kids between activities.
Yum, these look and sounds dreamy. My husband loves being in the kitchen and I know he would and could whip these up for me no problem. I’ll have to get him to! I love that they are 2 pts!
