Cranberry Walnut Cookies
Cranberry Walnut Cookies
I’m not sure it’s possible for me to have a favorite cookie (I love them all!) but if I could, this Cranberry Walnut Cookie would be one of them. I love the tart from the cranberries, the “zest” from the orange and the richness from the walnuts and chewiness of the oats. These Cranberry Walnut Cookies are gluten-free, vegan, have no oil or processed sugar, and are a wonderful addition to your holiday cookie plate.
Recipe is from my cookbook Whole Food American Favorites.
1 cup raisins
1 1/2 cups raw walnuts
1 1/2 cups rolled oats
1/2 cup dried cranberries (preferably fruit juice sweetened)
Zest of 1 small orange
1 t vanilla
Soak raisins in 1/2 cup water for at least 2 hours. Grind walnuts, oats, and raisins with soak water in food processor until dough-like consistency. Add cranberries, zest, and vanilla, and process just to incorporate. Scoop out dough, place on a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper, and flatten with a fork. Bake at 300 degrees for 20 minutes.
