Ingredients
- 80g Raisins
- 60g Coconut Sugar (Or 1 tablespoon of unsweetened applesauce with a dash of maple syrup)
- 30g Coconut Oil
- 60 mls Almond Milk (Or Water)
- 100g Oat Flour
- 100g Old-fashioned oats
- 1/2 teaspoon Bicarb Soda
- 1 teaspoon Cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon Baking Powder
- 1 teaspoon Nutmeg (Pumpkin pie spice also works well if you have this)
- 1/2 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
Instructions
- Heat the oven to 180 C
- Combine all the dry ingredients into a large bowl and make a well in the middle
- Add all the wet ingredients (including the dried fruits) into the well in the middle and mix lightly. The easiest way to do this is to combine with a wooden spoon
- You can make these cookies immediately once mixed. Simply spoon out the cookies onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving space for them to get bigger in the oven
- Bake for 7-8 minutes. They will still look slightly undercooked but you want that for the more chewy cookie texture
- Leave to cool completely on the parchment paper, or at least room temperature, on the cookie sheet, and enjoy!
