🥘 Ingredients

12 items

• 1.5 cups Rolled oats
• 1 cup Whole wheat flour
• 1 teaspoon Baking powder
• 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 cup Unsweetened applesauce
• 0.25 cup Coconut oil, melted
• 0.5 cup Maple syrup
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 1 large Egg
• 0.75 cup Raisins
• 0.5 cup Pecans, chopped

📝 Instructions

10 steps

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.

2. In a medium-sized bowl, combine the rolled oats, whole wheat flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt. Mix well and set aside.

3. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the unsweetened applesauce, melted coconut oil, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and egg until smooth and well combined.

4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined. Do not overmix.

5. Gently fold in the raisins and chopped pecans to evenly distribute them throughout the dough.

6. Using a tablespoon or small cookie scoop, drop rounded spoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.

7. Flatten each cookie slightly with the back of a spoon or your fingers to help them spread evenly during baking.

8. Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. The centers may still look slightly undercooked, but they'll set as they cool.

9. Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes. Then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.

10. Enjoy your healthy, chewy oatmeal raisin pecan cookies with a cup of tea or as a mid-day snack!
