Cookie Sheet
Large Mixing Bowl
- 2 cups whole wheat flour
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- ½ cup butter melted
- ½ cup coconut oil melted
- 2 large eggs
- ⅞ cup honey
- 1½ Tablespoons molasses
- 1 Tablespoon vanilla extract
- 3 Tablespoons milk
- 3 cups old fashioned oats
- 1 cup raisins
Preheat oven to 320 degrees F. Lightly spray cookie sheet with non-stick cooking spray or use a baking liner. Set sheet aside.
In a large bowl, mix together flour, salt, cinnamon, baking powder, and baking soda. Add in butter, oil, eggs, honey, molasses, vanilla, and milk and stir until all combined.
Fold in oats and raisins.
Drop heaping tablespoonfuls (these cookies work best if they are a little bit bigger . . . I found that if they are smaller, they burn easily) onto prepared baking sheet.
Bake for 8-10 minutes or until cookies are slightly golden. Keep in mind that honey bakes faster than sugar, which is why you cook these at a lower temperature that most cookies. Be sure to not overcook them or they will be crispy (unless you like cookies that way!).
If you are looking for a few alternatives to switch them out, here is what we recommend:
-Pecans
-Walnuts
-Sugar Free Chocolate Chips
-Almonds
-Semi Sweet Chocolate Chips
-Cranberries
-Peanut Butter Chips
-Dried apple or banana chips (or any other dried fruit)
-Orange Zest
-Plain (meaning you don’t even need to add anything and it will still taste delicious).
