Healthy Oatmeal Scotchies

Servings: 24 cookies
Prep Time: 20 minutes
Cook Time: 12 minutes
Total Time: 45 minutes

Ingredients

  • 20g (3 tbs) Ground Flaxseed
  • ½ cup Unsweetened Vanilla Almond Milk
  • 128g (½ cup) Natural Almond Butter
  • 21g (1 tbs) Molasses
  • 1 tsp  Natural Butter Flavor
  • ¼ tsp Vanilla Extract
  • 192g (1 cup) Granulated Erythritol (or dry sweetener of choice)
  • 144g (1½ cups) Old Fashioned Rolled Oats
  • 1 tsp Xanthan Gum
  • ½ tsp Double-Acting Baking Powder
  • ½ tsp Baking Soda
  • ½ tsp Salt
  • ¼ tsp Ground Cinnamon
  • 1 cup Homemade Butterscotch Chips (chilled*)

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and line a cookie sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a small microwave-safe bowl, stir together the flax and almond milk. Microwave for 30 seconds, or until warm, whisk and set aside to gel up.
  • In a large bowl, stir together the almond butter, molasses, extracts and erythritol.
  • In a medium-sized bowl, stir together the oats, xanthan gum, baking powder, baking soda, salt and cinnamon.
  • Add the flax gel to the large bowl with the almond butter/erythritol and stir together. Dump the dry ingredients on top and fold the mixture well.
  • Use a cookie scoop to portion the dough onto the parchment paper 3-4" apart (they will spread). Roll the dough into balls and flatten them slightly between your palms.  Bake for ~12 minutes. Carefully slide the parchment paper off the cookie sheet and onto the counter.
