Ingredients
Scale
Dry Ingredients
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 1/2 cup almond flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
Wet Ingredients
- 1/4 cup honey
- 1/4 cup coconut oil, melted
Add-ins
- 1/4 cup raisins
- 1/4 cup chopped nuts (such as walnuts or pecans)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven: Set your oven to 350°F (175°C) and allow it to fully heat while you prepare the cookie dough.
- Mix dry ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, almond flour, baking powder, and cinnamon thoroughly to ensure even distribution of the leavening and spices.
- Combine wet ingredients: In a separate bowl, mix together the honey and melted coconut oil until smoothly blended, creating a luscious, sticky base.
- Combine wet and dry: Pour the wet mixture into the bowl with dry ingredients and mix well until the dough starts to come together uniformly.
- Add raisins and nuts: Gently fold in the raisins and chopped nuts to infuse chewy sweetness and crunch throughout the cookies.
- Shape cookies: Using a spoon, drop dollops of the cookie dough onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, spacing them evenly to allow for slight spreading.
- Bake: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 12-15 minutes or until the edges are golden brown and the cookies are set.
- Cool and serve: Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for several minutes before transferring to a wire rack. Serve once fully cooled or store in an airtight container.
Notes
- For a vegan option, substitute honey with maple syrup or agave nectar.
- You can swap nuts with seeds like pumpkin or sunflower for a nut-free version.
- Make sure coconut oil is melted but not hot when mixing with honey to maintain proper texture.
- Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days or freeze for longer storage.
