I had a hankering for Oatmeal Cookies the other day. Since Oats are crossed off my list for the time being this is what I came up with instead.
These cookies have great flavor and couldn’t be easier to make!
Cinnamon Raisin Cookies
2 Cups Blanched Almond Flour
1/2 Cup Granulated Sugar (white sugar or an unrefined variety)
2 tsp. Baking Powder
2 TBS Butter/Earth Balance or Coconut oil.
1 1/2 Tsp. Cinnamon
2 Tsp. Vanilla Extract
2 1/2 TBS Water or Non-dairy Milk
pinch of salt
1/2 Cup (or more) Raisin’s
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Combine all the ingredients in a food processor. (or combine by hand- cutting in the butter and then adding the water/vanilla extract last). stir in the raisins.
- Press the dough and flatten them into 12- 1/2 inch tall cookies . If the dough feels to dry to hold together add an additional 1/2-1 TBS water/milk. (The more liquid you add- the more they will spread)
- Bake 20 minutes for softer cookies- bake 25 for harder crunchier cookies. The cookies will spread some in the oven.
xo,
Brittany

Alexis,
Have you ever heard of Lakanto? Its a natural substitute for sugar. Here is a link to check it out.
Sorry, I forgot to post the link

When I use Lakanto I use half the amount called for.
Wow! I just came across your site! I had pancreatic cancer 4.5 years ago and on a very restricted diet and you have so many recipes I can enjoy! Thank you so very much.
