Craving oatmeal cookies, and loving coconut, I mixed two recipes together and added a touch of my own. They were crumbly, so maybe next time I'll add in a bit of honey. Hubby loves oatmeal raisin cookies, and he declared these better than any he had ever had!
Preheat oven to 375.
Mix dry ingredients together:
2 c. flour (I used brown rice, tapioca, white rice, xanthan gum mix)
1 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1 c. rolled oats
1 c. shredded coconut
1/2 c. chopped almonds
1 c. shredded carrot
1/2 c. raisins and cranberries
1 stick ground cinnamon
pinch or two of ground ginger
Mix wet ingredients:
1/2 c. agave nectar
1/c. melted coconut oil
1/2. melted butter
Mix wet and dry together.
I tried baking this two ways. Teaspoon sized cookies on a cookie sheet for 10-12 minutes, and pressed into a stoneware baking sheet. The cookies were bite-sized and perfect for kids.
The bars took longer to cook and broke apart on their own. Basically, bake until golden brown on top.
Enjoy! And if you have any improvements, I'm happy to hear them.
