No Bake Oatmeal Coconut Cookies




These cookies are very simple to make and taste absolutely delicious.

Ingredients
1 ½ c. Rolled Oats
¼ c. Shredded Coconut, plus extra for garnish
1 tsp. Cinnamon
¼ c. Coconut Oil
1 c. Dates
¼ c. Raisins

Instructions
Line a baking sheet or large platter with wax paper. Put rolled oats, shredded coconut, and cinnamon in a food processor. Blend until well combined. It is important to blend all the dry ingredients first for a smooth texture.
Add the coconut oil and the dates. Blend until the mixture forms a dough-like consistency. It will separate from the sides of your food processor. Add the raisins and blend 2 minutes more.
Roll small amounts of dough with fingers to create 1-inch balls. Roll into the extra shredded coconut for garnish, then place on baking sheet. Serve immediately for a chewy consistency or place in the refrigerator for a couple of hours to obtain a firmer cookie texture.

  1. I make a version of this recipe with honey and cocoa powder, Cook those two ingredients to soft ball stage. Take off of the heat and add oats, almond butter, and shredded coconut. Drop on waxed paper and enjoy. Sorry no meaurements, just eyeball it.
