- ½ tsp baking powder
- ½ tsp baking soda
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
- ¼ tsp salt
Wet Ingredients
- ¼ cup + 2 tablespoons melted coconut oil
- ¼ cup coconut sugar
- ¼ cup pure maple syrup

- 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
Add-in Ingredients
- ¾ cup raisins packed

- 2 tbsp raisins
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or greased foil. Set aside for later.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together all the dry ingredients: oats, oat flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt.
- In a large bowl, whisk together all the wet ingredients: coconut oil, coconut sugar, maple syrup, flax eggs, and vanilla. Whisk until thoroughly combined and resembles caramel.
- Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients. Whisk until thoroughly combined. Fold in raisins and oats. The dough will be sticky.
- Using a small or medium cookie scoop, scoop and drop cookie dough balls onto the prepared baking sheet. Optionally, press raisins into the tops of the cookies. Using a fork, flatten cookies into a round disc—they will not spread during baking.
- Bake for 9-12 minutes. Using a flat, heatproof spatula, carefully lift cookies off the baking sheet and transfer them to a cooling rack. Allow to cool completely.
