Vegan Oats & Almond Meal Coconut Raisin Cookies

If you include grains like Oats, you should definitely try this cookie out. With Oats, Almond Meal, Coconut, Raisin, Maple Syrup these cookies are absolutely delicious. I used to make these cookies frequently before oats, wheat & barley were eliminated from our house hold. I still continue to make these for people who eat this high fiber grain and baking couple of batches to be put in gift boxes to be distributed for the New Year. If you are looking for vegan cookie recipe, this one is a must try. Happen to try this, let me know how you liked it. Will be very happy to know the feedback.



Cooking Time - 15 minutes

Preparation Time - 10 minutes

Yields - Around 20-24 Cookies depending on the size





Ingredients



Oats Flour  - 1 1/4 Cup(Grind 1 1/4 Cup of Oats into a fine flour in a food processor)

Quick Cooking Oats – 1 Cup

Almonds - 1 cup

Maple Syrup - 1/2 cup

Coconut Oil – 1/3 Cup

Thawed grated coconut – 1/2 Cup

Raisins – 1/3 Cup

Salt - 1/2 tsp

Baking Soda – 1/2 Tsp

Cinnamon powder - 1/2 tsp





Method





1) Place the almonds in a food processor and grind into a a coarse meal

2) Combine the Oats flour , Almond and the rest of the Oats, Salt, baking soda and Cinnamon powder.

3) Add Oil, Maple syrup, grated coconut , raisins and  mix thoroughly to form a dough.

4) If the dough is very sticky chill in the refrigerator for 5 minutes, if the dough is dry add little bit of more oil. Because I used coconut from the freezer, it had a little bit of moisture content which will help to bind the flour. So depending what type of coconut you are using adjust the dough.

5) Preheat Oven to 350 Degrees Fahrenheit and line a cookie tray with parchment paper.

6) Roll the dough into small balls and flatten them in your hand and place them in the cookie tray one after another leaving enough space between the cookies as they will expand.

7) Bake for 10-15 minutes until well baked, they get baked quickly so keep a watch on them otherwise you will get brown or burnt cookies.

8) Cool them and transfer to a airtight container.
