What ingredients do I need for oatmeal cookies without sugar and flour?
I already have some Recipes for oatmeal cookies tried out. Many were dry and hard - or as they say, crunchy. That's not the case with this cookie recipe. These oatmeal cookies have a soft consistency and are super soft.
Before we get straight to the recipe, I would like to say a few words about the ingredients. I'll tell you here which ones you can substitute if you don't have them on hand.
Bananas
The riper the bananas are, the more flavorful the cookies will be. If you regularly have brown bananas at home, then you can quickly turn them into something delicious with this recipe.
If they are very ripe, just a fork is enough to turn them into mush. If they are not yet so ripe, then reach for a Blender*. Under no circumstances should you use bananas that are still quite green, as this will make the cookies bitter.
Tip: I cut overripe bananas into small pieces and freeze them. If then times the desire for a smoothie or cookies emerges, then the recipe is quickly implemented.
Anyone who has ever baked with bananas, knows the pleasant sweet and fruity taste certainly. In combination with the eggs, they provide the soft consistency.
Eggs
The eggs ensure that the dough gets and stays in shape during baking. They give it juiciness and bind the ingredients together. If you want to make the dough without eggs, you can try using the Replace eggs with applesauce.
I have already done this with many recipes and was always amazed at how well it works. However, I have not yet tried it with the oat cookies.
Oatmeal
Use Fine leaf oatmeal* for baking. They are smaller and don't have such a brutal effect on the cookies. If you only have very coarse flakes, you can chop them coarsely in a food processor or with a knife. But be careful: not too small, otherwise it will turn into oat flour.
We need flakes, not powder, to provide more bite.
If you don't have oat flakes, you can use spelt flakes - but you have to chop them up first, otherwise they are too coarse.
Equally well suited are deoiled Soy flakes*.
Nuts
My favorite for the oatmeal cookies are grated hazelnuts*. They are so good for this because they add flavor to the cookies. You are also welcome to use almonds, but they have significantly less flavor, so you may need to add more flavor here. Cinnamon* have to help out.
If you like to add more bite to the cookies, roughly chop a few nuts and fold them in. Particularly well suited are next to hazelnuts, Cashews* or walnuts.
In the recipe, I add 50 g of hazelnuts. If you don't want that, just use more rolled oats instead.
Cinnamon
Banana and Cinnamon* - a combination that is unbeatable. Of course, the spice should not be missing in this recipe either. For those who don't Cinnamon*, who instead uses a little Cocoa powder* or very tasty for the cold season: Gingerbread spice*.
These oatmeal cookies are
- gluten-free (if you use gluten-free oatmeal)

Thanks to banana, they provide quick energy. And the oatmeal makes particularly long full. In short: It hardly gets any better :)

Tip: Roast oat flakes and nuts
If you want the flavor to come out even more, you should toast the ingredients for the oatmeal cookies. To do this, put the nuts and the oatmeal in a pan - important: without Oil!
Toast them briefly, stirring constantly. As soon as they start to get fragrant, take the pan off the heat and dump the oatmeal into a bowl. Let them cool briefly before continuing.

The best taste the cookies quite fresh. About the shelf life I can not say much, unfortunately they do not last long until all are gone. Already after a few hours were all eaten away.
But if you keep them in a jar or cookie jar and refrigerate them, they should keep for three days. Or maybe even longer.
