I literally made these up on the spot at 9:15pm. 20 minutes later, I was looking at a tray full of wonderful, fluffy cookies.

Time 30m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 ½ cups oat flour
¾ cup white sugar
3 tablespoons butter, at room temperature
½ cup vanilla-flavored soy milk
1 egg
½ tablespoon baking powder
½ tablespoon ground cinnamon
1 cup dried cherries
¾ cup slivered almonds, divided

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper.
  • Combine oat flour and sugar in a large bowl. Add butter; beat with an electric mixer until creamy. Mix in egg and soy milk. Mix in baking powder and cinnamon; dough should be the consistency of soft cookie dough. Fold in cherries and 1/2 cup almonds.
  • Drop cookie dough onto the prepared sheet in 2-tablespoon portions, leaving a few inches between each cookie. Sprinkle remaining slivered almonds on top of each cookie.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted in the center of each cookies comes out clean, about 15 minutes.
