If you don't have apple spice oatmeal, then go get some! But, seriously, if you really don't have apple spice oatmeal, I bet these cookies would be just as awesome with other flavors. I am totally going to swap the maple brown sugar oats for apple spice next time I make these cookies. Or maybe I'll just make two batches, one of each.... Yeah, that sounds like a plan! :)

Recipe type: Dessert
Serves: 18-20 cookies
Ingredients
¾ cup gluten-free oat flour (I made my own by processing regular old-fashioned oats in a food processor until they resembled flour)
1.5 cups County Choice Organic gluten-free apple spice oatmeal
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
½ teaspoon gluten-free baking powder
¼ teaspoon fine salt
¼ cup coconut oil, room temperature
¾ cup unsweetened applesauce
¼ cup maple syrup
1 large egg
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Whisk together the oat flour, cinnamon, baking powder, and salt.
In a large bowl, beat the coconut oil, applesauce and maple syrup together until combined. You can beat by hand or using a mixer. Next, beat in the egg and vanilla. Gradually add oat mixture to the wet ingredients, beating until combined. Then, fold in the apple spice oats.
In batches, drop dough in 2-tablespoonful mounds onto two parchment-lined baking sheets, 2 inches apart. Bake until cookies are golden brown at edges, 15-16 minutes. Let cool on sheet for two minutes and then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
