Description

Ingredients

• 2 dozen cookies
• 1 cup unsweetened applesauce
• ¾ cup chopped dates (from about 13 dates)
• ⅓ cup raisins
• 1 cup old fashioned oats
• ½ cup oat flour (you can blend rolled oats in the blender to make oat flour)
• 1 teaspoon cinnamon
• ½ teaspoon ginger
• 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
• 1 tablespoon coconut oil, melted, or oil of choice
• 1 tablespoon ground flax seeds plus 3 tablespoons water (or 1 egg)

Directions

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
• Lightly oil a baking sheet or line with parchment paper or a nonstick baking mat.
• Combine the flaxseed and water in a small bowl and give it a few minutes to gel. (Omit this step if you are using an egg.)
• Place all ingredients in a bowl and mix well.
• Form into small or medium balls (small balls will yield 2 dozen cookies, medium balls will yield 1 dozen), flatten, and place on the cookie sheet.
• Bake in the preheated oven about 12-15 minutes, until they are just starting to get golden brown. Enjoy!
