Oatmeal Cookies Without The Sugar Food

HEALTHY OATMEAL COOKIES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F) (without fan).
• Line a baking tray with baking paper.
• Place all of the ingredients into a food processor.
• Blitz until everything is well-combined.
• Pinch off a tablespoon of the mixture and roll it into a ball. Alternatively, use a small ice-cream scoop with 15 ml (1 tablespoons) capacity (which I recommend as the mixture is very sticky).
• Place the balls of dough onto the lined baking tray.
• Place the extra flour onto a small plate and dip a fork into the flour.
• Gently flatten the balls of dough with the floured fork.
• Sprinkle with extra dessicated coconut.
• Bake the cookies for about 20 minutes, or until they are lovely and golden.
• Cool the cookies on a wire rack.

SUGAR FREE OATMEAL COOKIES

Steps:

• In a small bowl, whisk flaxseed and water. Let sit for about 10 minutes while you are getting other ingredients ready.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F, line large baking sheet with unbleached parchment paper and spray with cooking spray.
• In a large bowl, mash bananas. Add coconut oil, vanilla extract, cinnamon, baking soda and salt.
• Add flaxseed mixture and whisk really well.
• Add oats and oat flour; stir to combine. Add nuts and dried fruit; mix well. Dough will be very thick.
• Using large ice cream scoop, place batter on previously prepared sheet and flatten with the back of a scoop into large size cookies. Cookies do not spread. I had about 6 cookies per sheet. Bake in batches for 20 minutes or until nuts start to brown a bit.
• Remove from the oven and let cookies cool for a minute, then transfer onto a cooling rack to cool off completely. Enjoy for breakfast, snack or a healthy dessert!

OATMEAL COOKIES (WITHOUT THE SUGAR)

Steps:

• In a large bowl, mix all the dry ingredients together.
• In a medium bowl, mix all the wet ingredients together. Hint: when measuring out the honey, spray the measuring cup with oil or baking spray--your honey won't stick).
• Mix the wet stuff with the dry stuff. Add the raisins and walnuts and mix. If the mixture seems too wet, add a bit of flour. If it isn't binding together very well, you may wish to add an egg white.
• COOL the mix for 20 minutes in the fridge.
• Preheat the oven to 335 degrees (lower temperature due to the honey in the recipe which will burn more easily).
• Drop by teaspoonfuls onto your baking sheet (I recommend lining the baking sheet with parchment paper). Press down with a fork to ensure even cooking.
• Bake for about 15 - 20 minutes or until golden on the bottom of the cookie. The cookies freeze very well and make a great snack! Enjoy.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

• Bake in the preheated oven until the edges are golden, 15 to 20 minutes.

SUGAR-FREE OATMEAL COOKIES

Steps:

• Beat together: shortning, sugars, egg, water, and vanilla until creamy.
• Combine in a separate bowl, flour, salt and soda and cinnamon.
• Add to creamy mixture, then fold in the raisins and oats, mix well.
• Drop by rounded teaspoons onto ungreased cookie sheet.
• Makes 5 dozen small or you can make them larger.
