Yes, it’s true. I’ve found one recipe to rule them all.
Alas, it does not look at all like the photo above. You know those annoying recipe sites where they have a stunning finished product and when you make it, the food looks more like your dog vomited crayons into a pot? Just me? Cool.
Well, I didn’t want to do that to you. If I took a picture of these cookies, you’d probably be scared away. And that would be very sad because…these cookies are the BEST! I mean, I stock up on Costco cranberries in bulk and freeze them so that I can make these cookies year round.
They’re also hypoallergenic and won’t set your gluten-free, diary-free, sugar-free, everything-free, free-loading friends into a tizzy. And while these scrumptious bites of perfection do fall apart and are less cute than if you make them with flour, they are addictively tasty–all while being healthy!
They’re so good, I always quadruple the recipe. I’m so confident you’ll wish you doubled it, I went ahead and I doubled the recipe for you! How about that? No pesky math for you.
So, ready to dive in? Here we go…
Ingredients
- 4 eggs
- 2 cups melted diary-free butter (I like this olive oil based one)
- 1 1/2 cups honey
- 2 tsp. vanilla
- 3 cups almond flour
- 6 cups oats
- 2 tsp. cinnamon
- 2 tsp. baking soda
- 1 tsp. salt
- 2 cups fresh or frozen cranberries
- 2 cups diary-free/sugar-free chocolate chips (I usually cheat and use these. They are diary-free but do have a little bit of sugar. If you want to be hard core use these instead and just chop them up.)
- Optional: 2 cups chopped walnuts (If you don’t add them, put more chocolate, cranberries, or oats)
Instructions
- Pre-heat the oven to 350F.
- Mix wet ingredients.
- Mix dry ingredients in a separate bowl (except for the chocolate chips, cranberries and nuts).
- Mix everything.
- Plop those suckers on a baking sheet (ungreased) and cook for 10-15 minutes.
Cookies will be very crumbly. But this is perfect. Because now you have an excuse not to take them to the upcoming holiday party. You can hoard them instead.
You’re welcome!
