These cookies have the perfect chewy, warm, buttery flavor that oatmeal raisin cookies are known for, but they’re healthy! Oatmeal raisin cookies are honestly my favorite cookie! I love everything about them: the flavor, the texture, the warmth, and everything in between. If you don’t like raisins, then feel free to sub chocolate chips. You can also make them dairy free by subbing the butter for softened coconut oil, but keep in mind it’ll change the flavor quite a bit as oatmeal raisin cookies are known for their buttery flavor!

The Ingredients Needed:

  • Oat flour
  • Super-fine almond flour
  • Rolled oats
  • Unrefined coconut sugar
  • Baking soda
  • Ground cinnamon
  • Grass-fed salted butter
  • Maple syrup
  • One egg
  • Vanilla extract
  • Raisins (or sub choc chips)

Method:

  1. Preheat oven to 350ºF.
  2. In a large bowl, mix all dry ingredients together.
  3. Add the softened butter, maple syrup, egg, and vanilla extract and mix to combine, using an electric mixer (handheld is fine).
  4. Stir in the raisins.
  5. Place parchment paper on a baking sheet. Spoon out the cookie dough into 12 balls.
  6. Place in the oven and cook for 10 minutes. It may not look done, but remember that it’ll continue cooking outside of the oven! Let them cool on the baking sheet for 10 minutes before serving.
  7. Please be sure to leave a comment and review!

Modifications:

  • Sub the raisins for chocolate chips.
  • Sub the butter for coconut oil for a dairy-free version.
  • Add ground cinnamon for extra flavor.
