Ingredients – makes 18 cookies
- 150g rolled oats
- 100g plain flour
- 150g chopped walnuts
- 1/4 teaspoon of baking powder
- 15 dried apricots
- 1/2 teaspoon of salt
- 2 tablespoons of water
- 2 teaspoons of vanilla extract
- 150g maple syrup
- 100ml mild olive oil
How to make it
- Line two baking trays with greaseproof paper. In a large bowl mix together the oats, flour, walnuts, salt and baking powder. Chop the apricots into small pieces and add.
- In a smaller bowl, whisk the water, vanilla extract, maple syrup and oil together. Add this to the oat mixture and mix thoroughly. Leave to rest for about 20 minutes.
- Divide the dough into 18 equal-sized, tightly moulded balls. Place these about 2 cm apart on the baking trays and flatten them slightly with your hand. Bake these in a hot oven for about 15 minutes.
- When the cookies are lightly browned, take them out of the oven and leave to cool. Serve them warm or cold.
