Vegan Coconut-Cranberry Cookies

Preheat oven to 350ºF.

Combine chia seeds and water. Set aside and let it set for about 15 minutes.

Mix together rolled oats, flour, baking powder, spices, and salt in a large mixing bowl; set aside.

In a small mixing bowl, stir together sugar, coconut oil, milk, and agave. Slowly pour this liquid mixture into the dry oat mixture, stirring with a spatula while incorporating. Stir in soaked chia seeds last. Once ingredients are well incorporated, fold in cranberries and shredded coconut.

Spoon cookie dough, about 1 1/2 tablespoon, onto nonstick ungreased cookie sheets (or aluminum baking sheets lined with foil). Bake for 20–22 minutes in the center rack, or until the cookies are browned at the edges.
