Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 1 cup butter (softened)
  • 1 cup coconut sugar (or brown sugar)
  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup
  • 2 large eggs (room temperature)
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
  • 1-1/2 cups white whole wheat flour
  • 3 cups old-fashioned rolled oats
  • 1-1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup raisins (soaked in hot water for 10 minutes and patted dry)
  • 3/4 cup chopped walnuts (optional)

Instruction

  • Place butter and sugar in a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment. Beat on medium speed until creamy. Beat in syrup, eggs, and vanilla until combined.
  • In a medium separate bowl, combine flour, oats, cinnamon, baking soda, and salt. Add to liquid mixture and beat on medium speed until a dough forms. Mix in raisins and walnuts if using. (dough will be quite sticky)
  • Wrap dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate 45 minutes to 1 hour or until slightly firm.
  • Roll cookie dough into 1-in balls and place on parchment paper-lined baking sheets. Flatten dough balls slightly. Bake cookies at 350F 9-10 minutes or until edges just start to turn golden (cookies will appear underbaked---this is ok) Cool cookies on baking sheet 10 minutes before transferring to a wire cooling rack to cool completely.
