Ingredients
- 1 cup old-fashioned oats
- 1 cup whole wheat flour or all purpose flour
- 1 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1/2 tsp ground nutmeg
- pinch of fine kosher salt
- 2 tbsp melted coconut oil
- 1 large egg at room temperature
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 2/3 cup agave syrup or maple syrup
- 1 large apple of choice finely diced
- 1-2 tbsp fresh lemon juice
- 2 tsp lemon zest
Instructions
- In a bowl, combine the dry ingredients: oats, flour, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt.
- In a second bowl, whisk all the wet ingredients: coconut oil, egg, vanilla and agave syrup. Add the dry over the wet and stir until combined.
- Finely chop the apple, add the zest, and squeeze over the lemon juice, tossing to coat mostly all the pieces. Add the chopped apple to the bowl with the batter and stir to incorporate. Refrigerate for 15 minutes.
- Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 325ºF and line a large sheet pan with parchment paper. Scoop the cold batter onto the prepared sheet pan; you should have around 8 scoops. They'll slightly flatten as you finish scooping the last one. Bake for 12-15 minutes, then cool in the pan.
