Ingredients
- 200 grams Pitted dates
- 100 grams Unsweetened applesauce
- 150 grams Almond flour
- 100 grams Rolled oats
- 1 large Egg
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.5 teaspoon Baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 50 grams Chopped pecans
- 1 teaspoon Cinnamon
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2
In a food processor, add the pitted dates and pulse until they form a sticky paste.
Step 3
Transfer the date paste to a mixing bowl and add unsweetened applesauce, egg, and vanilla extract. Mix well until combined.
Step 4
In another bowl, mix together almond flour, rolled oats, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon.
Step 5
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
Step 6
Fold in the chopped pecans, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Step 7
Scoop tablespoon-sized amounts of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between each cookie.
Step 8
Press down slightly on each cookie to flatten them a little as they will not spread much during baking.
Step 9
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are golden brown.
Step 10
Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
