Jackie -

Here’s the recipe:

2 1/2 c spelt flour

2 c rolled oats

1 1/2 tsp baking soda

1 tsp salt

1 c chopped pitted dates

1 c flaked coconut (the big kind, not shredded, though that might work too)

1/2 c agave nectar

1/2 c water (I might try applesauce next time)

3/4 c softened coconut oil

zest of one lime

1 tsp vanilla extract.

Preheat oven to 350F

Mix dry ingredients together in a large mixing bowl. Whisk together wet ingredents, then pour over dry and mix until flour is incorporated. Scoop onto parchment lined sheet pans and bake 11-12 minuts or until golden.

Yay, I love reading about how ppl got started. I’m venturing into vegannism bit by bit…but it’s a bit harder as I am the one that cooks for my family of 5. Anyhow, I would love your lime oatmeal coconut date cookies – they sound sublime!
