  • OR
  • 1/8 cup Thick jaggery syrup (2 Tbsp) homemade

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 180C or 350F.
  2. Line a baking  pan with parchment paper or grease and set aside.
  3. Time to make the dough.
  4. If making your own oat flour, just blend/blitz some oats in a blender to a fine powder.
  5. Transfer ½ cup into a mixing bowl.
  6. Add ½ cup natural, unsweetened peanut butter and 2 tablespoons jaggery syrup (or maple syrup).
  7. Mix to form dough that is smooth; add more sweetener or oats if needed.
  8. Shape into medium sized balls and place on the prepared baking sheet.
  9. Flatten slightly by making criss cross marks/indentations with a fork and bake at 350F/180C for 12-15 minutes or until the cookies turn light brown at the edges.
  10. Remove from oven and let cool on pan for 5 minutes, then gently transfer to a cooling rack to cool completely.

Recipe Notes

  • Adjust the amount of oat flour to make a dough that can be shaped into small balls.
  • Use either jaggery syrup (I just melted some jaggery with a splash of water and then used that) or maple syrup.
  • You can use either peanut butter or almond butter. I am yet to try using other nut or seed butters.
  • Double or triple the recipe to make a larger batch of cookies.
