Oatmeal clusters with very little flour and healthy fats. Flavor is enhanced with chocolate chips and fresh cranberries, which also give them a festive, colorful appearance.
Ingredients
1/2 cup oat flour
1-1/4 cups rolled oats (NOT quick oats!)
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/8 teaspoon cardamom
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup melted coconut oil
1/4 cup + 1 tablespoon coconut sugar
1 large egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 tablespoon maple syrup
1/3 cup dried cranberries
1/3 cup chopped fresh cranberries
1/3 cup chocolate chips
Directions
- Preheat oven to 350°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. In a large bowl, whisk together oat flour, rolled oats, baking powder, spices and salt. In a separate bowl, whisk together oil, sugar, egg, vanilla and maple syrup. Pour the wet mixture over the dry mixture, and stir until well blended. Fold in cranberries and chocolate chips. The dough will be very sticky and wet. Using a medium cookie scoop (or a 2-tablespoon cookie scoop), drop mounds of dough onto prepared baking sheet, leaving onto the prepared baking sheet—spaced evenly apart. Bake for 15 minutes. Place the baking sheet on a cooling rack, allowing cookies to firm up for about 10 minutes before transferring cookies directly to the cooling rack to cool completely. These need to cool completely before handled, or they will fall apart.
