Gluten-Free Oatmeal Trail Mix Cookies
Makes 12
2 cups of gluten-free oats
1/3 cup of tapioca flour
1 tsp of baking powder
1 Tbsp cinnamon
1/2 cup of liquid coconut oil
2 eggs
1/4 cup of pure maple syrup
1/2 cup of Enjoy Life – Not Nuts! Mountain Mambo Mix or other fruit/seed mix
1/2 cup of dates, chopped
- Grind one cup of the gluten-free oats, until the flakes are nearly like flour.
- In a medium bowl, whisk eggs, add liquid coconut oil (should be liquid at room temp, if not, melt at low temperature over stove top), and maple syrup. Blend well.
- In a large bowl, mix two cups of gluten-free oats (this includes the one cup ground), tapioca flour, baking powder, and cinnamon.
- Pour wet mixture into dry mix. Blend well.
- Add the fruit and seed mix and the dates to the cookie dough. Mix well.
- If the dough is a bit dry, add a Tablespoon of water or almond milk to get a nice consistency.
- Form round balls with dough and place them on the cookie sheet, one inch apart. Press down gently with a fork to flatten just a bit.
- Bake at 350F for 12-15 minutes, until golden brown around the edges.
- Remove from heat, allow to cool for 10 minutes before transferring to plate.
- Enjoy!

I hope things will work out for you guys soon. I love how your cookies are packed with goodness and deliciousness. YUM! Have a fabulous day, Emily!
Changes like that are never easy, especially when you have to follow government rules *sigh* but you just have to keep on keepin on. At least you are together with your sweet hubby, baby boy and those amazing cookies!
Emily, I’m sending you happy thoughts and hope that you get through this tough time easily. Your cookies look so good and are soooo healthy, I love that about your recipes π
My best to you my friend, I hope you make it through this hard time!
Stunning cookies by the way, love the idea of making trail mix π
Cheers

The weather’s been just shitty recently and that always affects my mood. Thanks for reminding us to find the beauty in every day(: And may all your troubles get sorted out soon. It’ll all be fine x
Looks so good – would have needed that right now, have been with oldest son at emergency room for hours. Now weΒ΄re home and heΒ΄s sleeping, but I feel all uneasy and down. Hate it when they get hurt! π
You had me at trail mix! They look really good!
So sorry to hear about problems with visas. We started the process to sponsor my husband parents like 5 years ago Emily and still nothing! It’s a bloody nightmare. And it turns out that now they don’t really need the canadian visa as they have become residents of the states and are happily living in Florida. Hope that all that daunting stuff gets resolved for you guys, soon!
These look super-yummylicious! Love your blog – am a foodie myself. New follower!
…and thanks for following me π
These look delicious!!!
Oatmeal is ALWAYS so comforting in cookies… you’ve inspired me to incorporate them more in my baking! And when I feel overwhelmed? Here is just the start…. Can you believe I even made a list of my ‘simple joys’ to remind me in troubled times:
– massages
– bake goodies for friends
– buy a special edition magazine and savour every page
– paint my nails
– listen to beautiful music
– bubble bath with candles
– and sometimes… just spend time on youtube looking up beautiful dance performances… it’s just my thing that lifts me up!
I hope the mountains subside Emily: remember to think…”I am not afraid of storms for I am learning how to sail my ship” xo
Hope things are going better for you π Your cookies look really yummy, I wish i lived near to try them…
