CHEWY OAT COOKIES
MAKES APPROX. 16 COOKIES | REFINED SUGAR FREE | DAIRY FREE OPTION
INGREDIENTS
110g butter, softened (use coconut oil for dairy free)
3/4 cup (150g) rapadura sugar
1 tsp pure vanilla extract
1 free-range egg
1 cup wholemeal flour
1 cup whole rolled oats
1 cup sultanas or raisins
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp natural salt flakes
METHOD
Preheat the oven to 180oC fan forced. Line two baking trays with baking paper.
In a mixing bowl, add butter, sugar and vanilla. Beat with electric beaters until pale and creamy. Add egg and beat well.
Add remaining dry ingredients and fold into a smooth dough. Place in the refrigerator for 15-20 minutes until chilled.
Roll tablespoon-sized balls of dough and place on prepared trays. Using the back of a spoon, gently press down slightly. Be sure to seperate and stagger the cooking dough on the tray as they will spread in the oven.
Bake cookies for 10-11 minutes until golden brown. Allow cookies to cool on oven trays before transferring to an airtight container (if they make it that far). Enjoy!
