Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup instant oats
- ¾ cup whole wheat flour or gluten-free flour
- 1 ½ tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp ground ginger
- ¼ tsp ground cinnamon
- ⅛ tsp ground nutmeg
- ⅛ tsp ground cloves
- ¼ tsp salt
- 1 ½ tbsp coconut oil, melted and cooled slightly
- 1 large egg white
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- ¼ cup molasses
- 5 tbsp nonfat milk (room temperature)
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients including oats, flour, baking powder, ginger, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, and salt.
- In another bowl, combine the melted coconut oil with the egg white and vanilla extract until well mixed. Stir in the molasses followed by the milk.
- Gradually add the oat mixture into this wet mix until just incorporated. Chill the cookie dough in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes.
- Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C). Prepare your baking sheet by lining it with a silicone mat or parchment paper.
- Using a spoon and spatula, drop rounded scoops of cookie dough onto your prepared baking sheet. Flatten each scoop to about ⅜ inch thick using your spatula.
- Place the cookies in your preheated oven and bake for 7-10 minutes until they are set but still chewy. Once baked, let them cool on the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
