It’s the fat of coconut oil, without the flavor which works great for these cookies. *** I used the refined coconut oil from Trader Joes, which is filtered and not bleached.

If you’re making the cookies for someone who has celiac disease, use certified gluten free oats, as the oats from the bulk bins can sometimes be processed on the same equipment as wheat. Don’t grind the oats in a food processor because the flour won’t be fine enough.Īny extra oat flour I don’t use in the recipe goes into an airtight container and I use it for another recipe. ** I grind oats into oat flour using a blender. If it’s not in the natural foods, or bulk spice section, check the dietary supplement/ digestive health (where the Metamucil is) section of the store or pharmacy as it’s sometimes sold there as well. I found mine in the bulk spice section of the local Fred Meyer, but Whole Foods, Trader Joes have been known to carry it as well. Notes – *Psyllium husk powder gels like nothing else, and there’s no great substitute for it. They frosting really gives the cookies a very polished look and makes them taste even more amazing.Ģ tbsp + 2 tsp melted refined coconut oil *** If you also love sweeter cookies, you can double the icing recipe. They aren’t too sweet, and I love them most when they are completely frosted with the maple vanilla icing.

You make them exactly the same way as the gingerbread cookies (hence the same instructions are repeated here) and the maple vanilla flavor really shines through in these cookies. The shape that you put the cookies into the oven is the same shape that they come out of the oven, perfect for holiday cookies.

They have a wonderful crunchiness and the maple gives them a lovely sweetness.Īnother good thing about these cookies is that they don’t contain any baking soda or baking powder, so the shape of the cookies don’t spread out or distort at all during baking. They are sort of a cross between a traditional sugar cookie, and a fortune cookie. These are great cookies, and super simple to make.
