How to Make Easter Candy Oatmeal Cookies
The debate is out- Cadbury Eggs, Pastel colored M&M’s or Peanut Butter filled M&M’s? We couldn’t decide so we threw in all three of our favorite Easter Candy into these cookies and they did not disappoint!These oatmeal cookies whip up in just a few minutes and don’t require any butter and can be made gluten free!
This recipe calls for Garbanzo Bean Flour which does have a somewhat earthy flavor but balanced well with the oats and coconut oil. As always, I encourage you to explore with the recipe and try different gluten free flours.
These cookies are chewy, slightly crunchy and not to sweet *They spread on the pan so be careful to not overcrowd the baking sheet!
Start by creaming the coconut oil and sugars together. Beat in the eggs one at a time and add dry ingredients. We do recommend chilling for 1 hour for best results! This does yield a chewier cookie.
