Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups Almond flour or brown rice flour
  • 1 cup Gluten-free rolled oats
  • 1/2 cup Coconut sugar
  • 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon Baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon Sea salt
  • 2 Eggs (beaten and at room temperature)
  • 1/4 cup Plus 2 tablespoons coconut oil
  • 1/4 cup Coconut nectar or maple syrup
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup Raisins

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line two baking sheets with parchment
    paper.In a large bowl or stand mixer, mix the almond flour or gluten-free
    flour of choice, oats, coconut sugar, cinnamon, baking powder, baking
    soda, and salt. Stir to blend.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, melted coconut oil, coconut
    nectar or maple syrup, and vanilla. Pour the wet ingredients into the
    bowl with the flour and oat mixture. Beat until a dough is formed. Add
    the raisins and beat again. Transfer the dough to the refrigerator and
    chill for 10-15 minutes.
  • Once the dough has chilled, use a cookie scoop or your hands to gather
    about 2 tablespoons of dough and roll into balls of equal size. Place
    them about 2 inches apart on the baking sheet.Bake for 10 to 12 minutes
    until edges have started to turn golden brown.
  • Cookies will be soft to the touch when you take them out of the oven,
    but they will firm as they cool. Allow the cookies to cool on the baking
    sheet, about 30 minutes, before serving.
