Recipe Summary Healthier Carrot Oatmeal Cookies

This makes a relatively healthy, cake-like cookie that is a bit like a mix between carrot cake and oatmeal cookies. I adjusted a few different recipes to use less sugar and more oats and carrots so that I don't feel too bad eating these for breakfast (which I can't resist)!

Ingredients | Chai Oatmeal Cookies

1 cup honey

⅔ cup coconut oil

2 cups grated carrots

2 eggs

1 cup all-purpose flour

2 teaspoons baking powder

2 teaspoons ground cinnamon

½ teaspoon ground nutmeg

¼ teaspoon baking soda

¼ teaspoon salt

3 cups quick-cooking oats

1 cup raisins

½ cup chopped walnuts (Optional)

Directions

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line 2 cookie sheets with parchment paper.

Combine honey and coconut oil in a large bowl; beat with an electric mixer until creamy. Add carrots and eggs and mix well.

Sift flour, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, baking soda, and salt together in a large bowl. Add to the wet ingredients and mix until well combined. Mix in oats, raisins, and walnuts until well distributed.

Drop large spoonfuls of dough 2 inches apart onto the prepared cookie sheets and flatten with a fork, if desired.

Bake in the preheated oven until tops are a golden color, about 15 minutes. Cool on the baking sheet for 1 minute before removing to a wire rack to cool completely.

You can use butter instead of coconut oil, and any dried fruit in place of raisins. If you'd like, use 1/2 whole wheat flour and 1/2 all-purpose flour.

I love cinnamon, so I use a lot. If you prefer a less spiced taste, reduce the amount of cinnamon.
