Soft Oatmeal Cookies (Macrobiotic & Vegan)

These cookies at Zen bakery were delicious. A friend asked me to recreate them, so through trial and error, I finally arrived at this recipe.

These do not come out crispy, but rather soft. The cookies from the bakery were thicker and use white grapes, but I substituted them with apple juice. Even one cookie should be quite filling, so they're perfect for diets. This is a good snack for people (like me!) on a macrobiotic diet. They'll put a smile on your face! Store in an airtight container. If you reduce the moisture content a bit and add more sugar (about 2-3 tablespoons) for the same sweetness as a regular cookie. Recipe by Wao2

Ingredients

10 servings
  1. 60 gramsOatmeal
  2. 70 gramsWhole wheat flour
  3. 1 1/2 tbspCanola oil
  4. 150 mlApple juice
  5. 1 tspCinnamon
  6. 45 gramsRaisins (or cranberries)
  7. 30 gramsRoasted walnuts (or almonds)
  8. 1/3 tspBaking powder

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Mix together all of the ingredients until no longer floury. Use a spoon or ice cream scoop to place 10 scoops of dough onto a baking pan. They don't expand upon baking, so create your desired thickness by pressing down on them from the top.

  2. 2

    Bake in the oven at 190℃ for 18 minutes. Be careful not to burn the bottoms.

  3. 3

    Once they've baked, leave them on the baking tray for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a rack. This will make them soft. They're even softer the next day.

  4. 4

    Using baking soda instead of baking powder makes them even softer. Use about half a teaspoon. These are also delicious with almonds (crushed or powder type) for the nuts. They're also good without dried fruit.

  5. 5

    One of my friends who's expecting a baby soon has been enjoying these as well. I definitely recommend them over oily snacks when you're hungry.

I've made these cookies twice and like them a lot. Only sweetened by the fruits and made substantial by the nuts and whole wheat flour, they are a delightful treat.
