Ingredients

Dry Ingredients

½ cup unsweetened coconut flakes
¼ cup + 2 tablespoons gluten free rolled oats
¼ cup gluten free oat flour
½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
¼ teaspoon baking powder
¼ teaspoon baking soda
¼ teaspoon salt

Wet Ingredients

1 flax egg whisk together 1 tablespoon ground flaxseed + 3 tablespoons warm water, set for 15 mins
¼ cup natural unsalted creamy almond butter
2 tablespoons melted coconut oil
2 tablespoons coconut sugar
2 tablespoons maple syrup
½ teaspoon pure vanilla extract

Add-in Ingredients

½ cup nuts finely chopped (pecans, walnuts, etc.)
¼ cup raisins or chopped up dried fruit small pieces prevent crumbliness

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper or greased foil. Set aside.
In a large bowl, whisk together all of the dry ingredients.
In a medium bowl, whisk together all of the wet ingredients. Whisk until smooth.
Pour the wet mixture over the dry mixture. Using a rubber spatula or wooden spoon, fold ingredients together until well-combined. Fold in Add-in Ingredients.
Using a cookie scoop, scoop and drop cookie dough balls onto the prepared baking sheet, evenly spaced apart. Using a fork, flatten cookies to desired thickness.
Bake for 10-14 minutes. Mine took 12 minutes. Allow cookies to cool on the baking sheet (placed on a cooling rack) for about 5-10 minutes. Using a heatproof spatula, transfer cookies directly onto the cooling rack to cool completely. Enjoy! Storing instructions below.

Notes

Storing Instructions: Store in an airtight container for 1-2 weeks.

Texture Notes: The first day, cookies are crispy on the outside and perfectly moist on the inside. The second day and on, cookies become soft and tender--and the flavor increases. So good!
