This is what my wife makes when I'm out of town...apparently they are great accompaniments to Sunday house-cleaning chores! All I know is that the house is clean and I'm waiting on another batch to be made! Cheeky? - Oh yes, but it's my birthday week and I'm sooooo getting away with it!!
Ingredients (makes about 15 cookies)
Ingredients (makes about 15 cookies)
- 2 cups Rolled Oats
- ½ cup Whole Wheat Flour
- 1 tsp Baking Soda
- ½ tsp Salt
- ½ cup Pumpkin Puree
- 2 Tbsp Coconut Oil (melted)
- ½ cup Coconut Sugar
- 1 large Egg
- 2 Tbsp Flaxseed
- 1 tsp Vanilla
- ½ cup Chocolate Chips
- ½ cup dried fruit (I used cranberries)
- ½ cup chopped nuts (I used pecans)
- ½ cup shredded coconut
Directions
- In a large mixing bowl combine pumpkin puree, coconut oil, sugar, eggs and vanilla and mix well.
- Add flour, baking soda & salt, mix well
- Stir in the oats & flax in batches
- Add chocolate chips, fruit, nuts & coconut and gently mix in (do not over mix)
- Drop a large spoonful onto a non-stick baking sheet and bake at 350 for 12-15 min or until edges are crispy (they don't spread a ton, but I still kept a good couple of inches space between raw cookies)
- Store in airtight container
- Eat, Enjoy, Repeat until all gone!
YUM these look amazing! I love everything cookies - and using coconut sugar is such a great alternative to sugar. I'd throw in raisins and cinnamon and make them extra oatmeal raisiny. Yummmmmyyy...!
