Oatmeal & Raisin Cookies (Vegan)
This healthy oatmeal cookie recipe is a staple treat in our home, made almost daily they’re that good!
A simple one-bowl recipe you can make and bake from scratch within 15 minutes – you don’t even need a food processor!
A great choice when you fancy a sweet treat, filled with natural sweetness.
They are also made using oat flour instead of all purpose flour – although you can use either depending on your dietary preferences.
Ingredients
- 80g Raisins
- 60g Coconut Sugar (Or 1 tablespoon of unsweetened applesauce with a dash of maple syrup)
- 30g Coconut Oil
- 60 mls Almond Milk (Or Water)
- 100g Oat Flour
- 100g Old-fashioned oats
- 1/2 teaspoon Bicarb Soda
- 1 teaspoon Cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon Baking Powder
- 1 teaspoon Nutmeg (Pumpkin pie spice also works well if you have this)
- 1/2 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
Instructions
- Heat the oven to 180 C
- Combine all the dry ingredients into a large bowl and make a well in the middle
- Add all the wet ingredients (including the dried fruits) into the well in the middle and mix lightly. The easiest way to do this is to combine with a wooden spoon
- You can make these cookies immediately once mixed. Simply spoon out the cookies onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving space for them to get bigger in the oven
- Bake for 7-8 minutes. They will still look slightly undercooked but you want that for the more chewy cookie texture
- Leave to cool completely on the parchment paper, or at least room temperature, on the cookie sheet, and enjoy!
Recipe Notes
These cookies will stay fresh for around 4 days if left in an airtight container. Move to the fridge if you live in a warmer climate or we have a heatwave in the UK. If you don’t have any containers, you can also cover them in plastic wrap, or beeswax wraps instead.
However, these sugar-free cookies so taste the best fresh, plus, they might not even last long enough to reach the fridge!
Nutritional Information – These sugar-free oatmeal raisin cookies are approx 80 calories per cookie, however, this will vary slightly on the serving size of your cookie. If you make 8, they should be approx 80 calories each.
