Instructions
Instructions for Date Filling
- Place all date jam ingredients in a saucepan and cook over a medium heat, stirring until the sugar dissolves and the dates begin breaking down. Bring to a boil and simmer until thickened. Set aside to cool.
Instructions for Cinnamon Oatmeal Cookies
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190C/170C Fan) and line baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
- Place the sugars and melted butter in a large mixing bowl and whisk together until well blended.
- Add the egg and vanilla to the mixture and beat to combine.
- Next add the flour, baking soda, salt and cinnamon. Whisking until just combined.
- Finally add in the oats and stir through with a spatula.
- Scoop the dough onto your prepared baking sheets, using a tablespoon or cookie scoop, about 2 inches apart, and bake in the centre of oven for about 8 minutes until the edges begin to darken lightly. (Dependent on the size of the scoop, your cooking times may vary).
- Once baked, remove from the oven and allow to cool for about 5 minutes on the tray before removing to cool on a wire rack.
Instructions for Assembling Date Filled Oatmeal Cookies
- Pair up your cookies so that you have sets that match best in size. Taking one of the cookies in the pair, flip it over so that the flat base is facing up and spoon a dollop of date filling. Spread this gently over the cookie and sandwich with the base of the other cookie. Repeat until all the cookies are filled.
