Ingredients:
½ cup applesauce
½ cup maple syrup
⅓ cup creamy almond butter
3 cups gluten-free oats
2 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp sea salt
¼ cup raisins
Instructions:
1) Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
2) In a large bowl, combine the applesauce, maple syrup, and almond butter. Add in the oats, cinnamon, baking powder, and sea salt. Fold in the raisins.
3) Use a cookie scooper to scoop out ¼ of the dough and roll it with your hands to form mini balls onto the pan. Flatten the balls of dough with the palm of your hand. This recipe will yield about 12 small cookies.
4) Transfer the pan to the oven and bake for about 25 minutes or until the top of the cookies are golden. Remove the cookies from the oven and allow to cool for about 10 minutes before enjoying.
5) Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks and enjoy!
