Prep time - 15 minutes

Cook time - 15-20 minutes

Difficulty - Easy

Serves / makes - 16 cookies

Ingredients

100g porridge oats or fine oats

100g gram flour

100g coconut sugar or other brown sugar

100g raisins

1t baking powder 

1/2t salt

100g coconut oil, melted (use refined if you do not want the coconut flavour)

50g water 

Equipment

Baking tray

Baking paper

Large mixing bowl

Mixing spoon

Method

1. Heat your oven to 180c/360f/GM4. Put a sheet of baking paper onto a wide baking tray.

2. Put the oats, flour, sugar, raisins, baking powder and salt in a mixing bowl. Mix well then add the melted oil and water. Mix in well and allow to rest for 5 minutes. This will allow the batter to thicken slightly and so will be easier to make into cookies.

3. Put spoonfuls of the batter onto the baking tray, dividing the batter into 16.

4. Bake the cookies for 15-20 minutes until they are browned around the edges. The cookies will be chewy, if cooked for 15 minutes but if they are cooked for 20 minutes they will be more crunchy.

5. Once cool, store these cookies in a Tupperware box. Do not store them in the fridge.

Tips

• The coconut oil can be substituted with any smooth nut butter. You may need to add a little more water to the recipe to make the batter the right consistency.
