My son challenged me to make a cookie that tasted like an oatmeal raisin cookie but would still be advanced plan approved. Of course, oatmeal was out so I had to get creative. His taste test gave it a thumbs up. The spices and dried blueberries really gave it an oatmeal raisin flavor.
Advanced or Core Plan
Makes 24 cookies
1 cup almond flour
1/8 cup walnuts
1/8 cup pecans
2 tablespoons flax meal
1/4 cup erythritol (I used Swerve)
1 teaspoon cinnamon
dash nutmeg
dash ginger
2 eggs
Optional: 1/2 – 1/3 cup Dried blueberries (I used Eden brand) to mimic raisins
Process nuts in a food processor so to a semi-fine consistency. Add the rest of the dry ingredients. Add the eggs and process until smooth. Add the blueberries if desired and mix in with a spatula.
Drop by tablespoons on a parchment lined baking sheet. Shape with fingers if desired. (I left mine in mounds)
Bake at 350 degrees for 10-13 minutes (they will still feel somewhat soft)
