Ingredients
  

  • 1 flax egg 1 tablespoon ground flax and 3 tablespoons water
  • 3/4 cup oat flour 3/4 cup oats ground into a fine flour
  • 1 1/2 cup oats
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt
  • 3/4 cup dates
  • 2/3 cup water
  • 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
  • 1/4 cup + 2 tablespoons coconut oil melted
  • 1/2 cup + 2 tablespoons natural peanut butter melted

Instructions
 

  • Prepare your flax egg by mixing 1 tablespoon of ground flax with 3 tablespoons of water and set aside to thicken for a few minutes.
  • Meanwhile, prepare your dry ingredients by adding the oat flour, oats, baking powder, baking soda, and salt to a large mixing bowl. Stir to combine.
  • Add the dates and water to a blender and blend until you have a completely smooth paste.
  • Add the flax egg, date paste, apple cider vinegar, melted coconut oil, and melted peanut butter to the dry ingredients. Stir until combined.
  • Place the dough in the fridge to chill for 10-15 minutes while you preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and line 2 baking trays with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
  • Remove the dough from the fridge and roll into 18 balls. Place the balls on the prepared baking sheets and press down with a fork to flatten the cookies and form a criss-cross.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, until firm and slightly golden around the edges.
  • Let cool completely before serving. Store in the fridge for up to a week or in the freezer for up to a month. Remove from the freezer to thaw before serving.
