Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°.
- Line a 9 x 9 baking pan with 2 long pieces of parchment paper, long enough to go up over the sides for easy removal.
- Lightly spray with oil.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together oat flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt and cinnamon.
- In a large bowl, with a mixer cream together the butter and the sugar on medium speed.
- Add the egg followed by the honey, applesauce and vanilla extract.
- Working by hand, stir in the flour mixture and the oats until just combined and no streaks of flour remain; stir in the chocolate chips, raisins and nuts.
- Spoon oats onto prepared baking dish, flattening to make even.
- Bake for about 23-25 minutes, or until light brown at the edges. They will seem soft and undercooked, but once they cool they will set completely.
- Cool completely on a wire rack then refrigerate before cutting.
- This will help them hold together better.
- To cut use a long serrated bread knife and cut in a sawing motion.
Notes
- *use gluten-free oats if you are on a gluten free diet
