There is nothing better to me than a hot cookie the oozes chocolate. Add oatmeal and cranberries and you've got the perfect fall comfort cookie. I have to say too that I was proud that this only took one try to make. Most of the original recipes I try end up costing me a few trials and errors. Not this time, although I did cheat by using a pre-mixed gluten-free flour blend. So sue me! (it's a lazy day, remember?) These are sugar-free in the sense that there is no processed sugar, and they are also dairy free.
Okay, so to the cookies.....
Dry:
1 1/4 cup Bob's Red Mill Gluten Free Flour
2 1/2 cups Gluten Free Rolled Oats
1 cup dairy free dark chocolate chips
1/2 teaspoon xanthan guym
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 teaspoon nutmeg
Wet:
1 cup almond (or rice) milk
4 tablespoons whole berry canned organic cranberry sauce (get the no-sugar added kind)
3 tablespoons local organic honey (sub agave nectar)
*a tip, you can used dried cranberries, but you'll have to up the moisture factor with extra almond milk
Combine the dry ingredients first, then add the wet. Stir together and place on baking sheet at least two inches apart. Bake for about 20 minutes on 375 degrees or until golden brown. Overcooking them though will make them more spongey than gooey, so watch them closely.
Local honey from the Romanian Church down the street. Yum! |
Holy Chocolatey goodness batman! |
I also think you can sub organic canned pumpkin istead of cranberry sauce. In fact, I might just do that for my second batch!
Happy Baking!
