Apple Raisin Nut Cookies

Apple Raisin Nut Cookies

When I came up with this recipe, my daughters were out of school for the fifth time in two weeks because of inclement weather. We were snowbound, and I was going stir crazy! After we'd eaten lunch that day, I got an overwhelming urge to run into the kitchen and whip up some cookies, so I did. My goal was to use the fewest amount of ingredients possible AND to include items that people would most likely already have at home. I was very pleased with how these cookies came out. My girls certainly liked them and didn't even miss the chocolate chips!

Almond Cookies

These light-tasting cookies look like they belong at a ladies' brunch or luncheon. But even though Almond Cookies may appear to be delicate and fancy, they're filling and satisfying, hearty enough for even the manliest man.

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup almond meal or flour
  • 1/3 cup almond butter
  • 1/4 cup unsweetened orange juice
  • 2 tablespoons flaxseed meal
  • 1/4 cup + 3 tablespoons Date Honey
  • 2 tablespoons sliced almonds

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a large bowl, mix almond meal, almond butter, orange juice, and flaxseed meal.
  • Lightly rub an 11 x 17-inch baking sheet with olive oil. Place dough on baking sheet and flatten with your hands to about 1/8-inch thickness. Use a circle cookie cutter about the size of a 1/3 cup measuring scoop to cut out cookies (or use the measuring cup itself).
  • Spread about 1/2 tablespoon Date Honey on each cookie, and top with 3-4 sliced almonds. Bake 10 minutes. Remove from oven, and transfer cookies to a wire rack to cool.
  • Yield: 14 servings (serving size: 1 cookie)

Notes

  • Use unsweetened applesauce as a topping instead of Date Honey.
  • Omit the toppings, and crumble baked cookie over fresh fruit.

Oatmeal Raisin Cookies

A Daniel Fast favorite. Oatmeal Raisin Cookies are moist and chewy, so good you almost can't believe they're allowed.

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
  • 1 cup almond flour or oat flour
  • 1 cup creamy cashew butter, almond butter, or peanut butter
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce
  • 1/3 cup Date Honey
  • 1/2 cup raisins
  • 2 tablespoons chopped walnuts
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Prepare an 11 x 17-inch baking sheet by lining with a silicon mat. Mix oats, almond flour, cashew butter, applesauce, and Date Honey in a large bowl until well combined. Add raisins, walnuts, and cinnamon. Stir well. Drop by spoonfuls, two inches apart, on baking sheet. Flatten and shape into circles. Bake 10-12 minutes.
  • Yield: 18-20 servings (serving size: 1 cookie)

Notes

  • Make your own oat flour by placing old-fashioned rolled oats in a food processor or blender and process until fine (1 cup old-fashioned oats will yield about 3/4 cup ground oats).
  • Increase applesauce to 1 cup if you don't use Date Honey.
