Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Gluten-free rolled oats
- 1 cup Almond flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 1 teaspoon Cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 2 tablespoons Ground flaxseed
- 5 tablespoons Water
- 0.5 cup Unsweetened applesauce
- 0.25 cup Coconut oil (melted)
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.25 cup Monk fruit sweetener or erythritol
- 0.5 cup Raisins or chopped dates
- 0.25 cup Chopped walnuts or pecans (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a small bowl, combine the ground flaxseed and water to create a flax 'egg'. Let it sit for 5 minutes to thicken.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the gluten-free rolled oats, almond flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt.
In a separate bowl, mix the flax 'egg', applesauce, melted coconut oil, vanilla extract, and monk fruit sweetener until well combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until a dough forms.
Fold in the raisins (or chopped dates) and optional nuts if using.
Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of the dough onto the prepared baking sheet and gently flatten the tops with your fingers to shape the cookies.
Bake for 10-12 minutes or until the cookies are lightly golden around the edges.
Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days, or freeze for longer storage.
