Eggless Oatmeal-Walnut Cookies

Finally I baked eggless oatmeal cookies...its been on my list for very long time, for some reason kept pushing. While searching for the recipe today I came across Chef in you , I liked the idea of roasting oatmeal and walnuts and grinding them to fine powder. The author has used maple syrup and rice syrup in the recipe. In order to replace these ingredients , I used Madhurams idea of adding sugar and honey. End result, my cookies turned out just great!!!!




Ingredient:


Oatmeal [quick cooking] - 1/2 Cup
Whole wheat flour - 1/2 cup
Walnuts - 1/2 cup
Vegetable oil [Canola] - 2 tbsp
Honey - 2 tbsp
Brown or white Sugar - 2 tbsp
Raisins - 1/2 cup
Cinnamon powder - 1tsp
Vanilla extract - 1tsp
Salt - a pinch
Baking Soda - 1/2 tsp

Method:
  • Soak raisins in water and keep it aside.
  • Combine walnuts and oats and dry roast in a pan until it turns little brown and emits aroma. Cool and grind in a blender to make powder. Add salt, baking soda and cinnamon powder
  • In a separate bowl blend oil, honey, sugar and vanilla. Add the dry ingredients, soaked raisins and mix thoroughly with a spatula.
  • Make a dough, pinch out small balls [almost 8] , flatten in the center and place it on baking sheet at least 2 inch apart and bake in the center of the oven at 350 degree Fahrenheit for 10-15 minutes. Mine were browned in 11 minutes.
  • Cool and store in air-tight containers...
