Servings: 6 cookies
Ingredients
  • 6-7 pitted Medjool dates
  • 1 cup rolled oats
  • 2 cups gluten-free flour (I used almond flour)
  • 1/2 cup shredded coconut
  • 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/4 cup coconut oil
  • 1/2 cup maple syrup
Instructions
  1. Soak dates in 1 cup of water for 30 minutes.
  2. Discard the water and with your hands, mash the dates into a paste.
  3. Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
  4. Combine oats, flour, coconut, cinnamon and nutmeg in a bowl. Add oil, date paste, and syrup and mix until all ingredients are moist.
  5. Form little balls and place on a lightly greased cookie sheet.  Press cookies lightly so they do not roll off the cookie sheet.
  6. Bake for 10 minutes. Take out the cookie sheet and flip cookies. Bake an additional 10 minutes.
