Ingredients

• 2 cups Old-fashioned rolled oats
• 1 cup Almond flour
• 2 tablespoons Ground flaxseed
• 1 teaspoon Baking powder
• 1 teaspoon Cinnamon
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 cup Coconut oil (melted)
• 0.5 cup Maple syrup
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 2 large Eggs
• 0.5 cup Chopped nuts (e.g., almonds, walnuts)
• 0.5 cup Dried cranberries
• 0.25 cup Dark chocolate chips (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, almond flour, ground flaxseed, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt. Stir well to distribute the dry ingredients evenly.

Step 3

In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the melted coconut oil, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and eggs until smooth.

Step 4

Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients and mix until well combined.

Step 5

Fold in the chopped nuts, dried cranberries, and dark chocolate chips (if using).

Step 6

Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, scoop out portions of dough and place them onto the prepared baking sheet, about 1 inch apart.

Step 7

Flatten each cookie slightly with the back of a spoon to shape them, as they will not spread much during baking.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.

Step 9

Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 10

Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days, or freeze for longer storage.
