Looking for a healthier oatmeal raisin cookie to satisfy your sweet tooth? Not only are these cookies soft and perfectly sweet, they are full are health-boosting ingredients, like sunflower seeds, flax seeds, coconut, and raisins!
Ingredients
1 ⅓ cups rolled oats
⅓ cup oat flour (pulse oats until finely ground)
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 teaspoon vanilla
6 tablespoons coconut oil, melted
¼ cup coconut sugar (or brown sugar)
2 tbsp honey
1 egg
3/4 cup raisins
1/4 cup ground flax seeds
¼ cup sunflower seeds
¼ cup shredded coconut
¼ tsp of salt
Directions
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a mixing bowl, mix together all wet ingredients (coconut oil, honey, egg, vanilla).
In a separate bowl, mix together all dry ingredients (oats, oat flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, brown sugar, raisins, ground flax seeds, sunflower seeds, shredded coconut, salt).
Then using a rubber spatula, fold the oat mixture into the egg mixture. The dough will be a little crumbly, which is okay! If dough is too crumbly, add in another tablespoon of flour (coconut flour works well here).
Form into about 15 cookies
Bake the cookies for 12-14 minutes depending on the size of your cookies.
Let cool and enjoy!
