Servings: 16 yields
Calories: 104kcal
Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- ½ cup brown/cane sugar
- 1 tsp baking soda
- ½ tsp ground cinnamon
- ¼ tsp salt
- ½ cup agave nectar
- ¼ cup unsweetened apple sauce
- 1 tsp vanilla essence
- 1 cup rolled oats
- ¼ cup raisins
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and keep two baking trays ready. Either cover them with parchment paper or aluminum foil and grease them lightly with the oil of your choice. I used parchment paper and did not use any oil at all.
- Combine the dry ingredients – Flour, sugar, baking soda, cinnamon powder, and salt.
- Combine the wet ingredients in a separate bowl – apple sauce, agave nectar, and vanilla essence. Mix well without any lumps.
- Add the wet ingredient mix to the dry ingredient mix.
- Combine well. Make sure there isn't any dry flour mix.
- Now add the rolled oats and raisins.
- Gently mix, and the eggless oatmeal cookie dough is ready.
- Scoop 1 to 1.5 tbsp of the dough using a cookie scoop or ice cream scoop and place them on the baking tray. Place the cookies 1 to 1.5 inches apart.
- Flatten them slightly with the back of the spoon or grease your palms and pat them.
- Bake these cookies for 12 to 14 minutes at 350 deg F or until the cookies are browned on the bottom.
Notes
- Please check the ingredient section and substitutions for alternate ingredients.
- You can also roughly pulse the oats before adding them to the cookies.
- Do not use instant oats for these oatmeal cookies. Use only rolled oats.
- The above measure yields 16 to 18 cookies. You will need two baking trays or one large one. Bake them in batches if needed. But do not bake them on different racks at the same time. Baking these cookies in the middle rack yields the best results.
- For crispy cookies, flatten them thin and bake for 15 to 16 minutes.
