Healthy Giant Oatmeal Raisin Chocolate Chip Cookies! (Vegan, GF, Oil-Free)

Ingredients:
1 Cup Oats (GF if allergic)
1 Cup Oat Flour (Grind to flour)
1 Tbsp Flax Meal or 1 tsp Psyllium Husk
1 tsp Baking Soda
1 tsp Cinnamon
​1 Cup Pitted Medjool Dates
1/2 Cup Almond Butter
1/2 Cup Raisins
1/2 Cup Chocolate Chips 

Peaceful Preparation:
  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F / 180°C. Lightly grease a cookie sheet or line with parchment or a silmat. 
  2. Place warm water over the pitted medjool dates, soak 7-10 minutes to soften.
  3. Combine the water and flax meal or psyllium husk together. Mix well. Set aside for 5-7 minutes to congeal.
  4. Mix together the almond butter and soaked dates in a food processor until it creates a creamy paste. Reserve the water from the dates for smoothies or discard. 
  5. Add the congealed flax mixture to the almond butter mix and combine.  
  6. Add all the ingredients to a medium bowl, less the chocolate chips. (*You can add the chocolate chips to the dough and on top, or just on top, your preference.) Mix until it forms a cookie dough.
  7. Use an ice cream scoop and place it on the cookie tray leaving a little space for slight spreading. Flatten into a cookie shape. Place chocolate chips on top. 
  8. Bake 12-15 minutes, I went 15, until golden.
  9. Cool on a rack for 10 minutes before enjoying. Dig in!!

If you don't like chocolate chips you can omit, that's why they're saved to the end on top as I usually do 1/2 and 1/2. If just for me I'd put them inside the dough and on top. ;) 

Raisins could be changed to cranberries.... :)

Have you tried Deglet Noor dates for this recipe? My husband now craves these but its getting rather expensive for the medjools. I dont want him to loose the sweet flavor though.

Hi Dea, I've not but I'm sure they'd be divine here. I totally understand and am one who uses what you have so have at it. I'm not sure if the sweetness will be exactly the same but I bet it'll still be good. :)
