Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 1 cup quick oats ((or rolled oats ground finely in a blender or food processor))
  • 1 cup whole wheat flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1 cup grated carrot ((about 1 large))
  • 1/2 cup grated apple ((about 1 medium))
  • 1 cup raisins
  • 1/2 cup sunflower seeds, chopped walnuts, or chopped pecans ((optional))
  • 1/2 cup coconut oil ((or unsalted butter, melted and slightly cooled))
  • 1/3 cup honey ((or maple syrup))

Instruction

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Mix together all ingredients in a large bowl using a wooden spoon to start and then using (clean) hands to bring the batter completely together if needed.
  • Portion out 2-tablespoon sized balls of dough, place onto the prepared baking sheet, and press down until 1/4-1/2 inch thick. Space them about an inch apart—they won't spread, so close is okay.
  • Bake for 18-20 minutes or until lightly golden around the edges. Let cool on the baking sheet and serve.
  • These are best eaten on the day they are made, but can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature or in the fridge for 3-5 days.
