Oat cookies with date chunks, sounds delicious, right? I am definitely in love and those who know me, know that I love sweets. In addition to chocolatey snacks, it can also be something a little more substantial now and then, with oatmeal and dates. I need nerve food more than ever at the moment, because Corona is pushing us all to the limit. What is allowed, what is not allowed? Travel? Yes, no or just maybe? I don’t even want to talk about all the other issues. One thing is for sure, it wears on the nerves and for that I need healthy snacks. Dates are great for this, on their own or as in this recipe combined with oatmeal in the form of a cookie(or two). I would love to get right back in the kitchen and bake another batch. The first one is already eaten away.
Oat cookies with date chunks
These cookies are once again gluten-free, oil-free and naturally sweetened. In terms of ingredients, we keep it simple and manageable this time too. Kernel oats, almond flour, baking powder, almond paste, maple syrup, bourbon vanilla, coarsely chopped dates and salt. Sounds good, doesn’t it? Hmmmm, I promise you they not only sound good, but they taste good too.
I use light almond paste because it works so well. But you can use any other nut mush of your choice. If you’re a fan of sesame seeds, I recommend using tahini. Here, as with nut musks, there is also a dark and a light version. Easier to process and more beautiful in color is light sesame paste. Please pay attention to whether the mush is already salted.
Note: If the tahini or nut mush you use is already salted, then please omit the pinch of salt from the recipe. That would be double otherwise and who wants too much salt in sweet cookies?
Make vegan oil free cookies yourself
My husband told me the other day to please watch out because I make so many cookie recipes. Do you also think we have too much? Honestly, I love cookies and I think I’ll be making a lot more of them in the future. For anyone who is curious now, here is a list of all the cookie recipes I have ever made on my site.
