Ingredients

• 1.5 cups Rolled oats
• 0.75 cups Almond flour
• 1 teaspoon Cinnamon
• 0.25 teaspoon Nutmeg
• 0.5 teaspoons Baking soda
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 0.75 cups Mashed sweet potato (cooked and cooled)
• 0.5 cups Maple syrup
• 0.25 cups Coconut oil (melted and cooled)
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 0.5 cups Dark chocolate chips
• 0.25 cups Chopped pecans (optional)
• 0.25 cups Dried cranberries (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large bowl, combine the rolled oats, almond flour, cinnamon, nutmeg, baking soda, and salt. Mix well to evenly distribute the dry ingredients.

Step 3

In a separate bowl, whisk together the mashed sweet potato, maple syrup, coconut oil, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.

Step 4

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.

Step 5

Fold in the dark chocolate chips, chopped pecans, and dried cranberries (if using) to evenly distribute them throughout the dough.

Step 6

Scoop out tablespoon-sized portions of the dough and place them onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 1 inch of space between each cookie.

Step 7

Gently press down on each dough ball to slightly flatten it.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges of the cookies are golden brown.

Step 9

Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 10

Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days, or freeze for longer storage.
