Oatmeal Raisin Cookies

Oatmeal Raisin Cookies
This lightly spiced cookies makes a small enough batch for treats for your little ones (or yourself)!
MAKES 9–12 COOKIES. WHEAT-FREE

¾ cup + 1 tbsp spelt flour
1 tsp baking powder
¼ tsp baking soda
½ cup quick oats
¼ cup unrefined sugar
¼ cup raisins
½ tsp cinnamon
1 pinch allspice (or ¼ tsp nutmeg)
¼ tsp sea salt
¼ cup pure maple syrup
¼–½ tsp blackstrap molasses
1½ tsp pure vanilla extract
¼ cup organic canola oil

Preheat oven to 350ºF (180ºC). In a bowl, sift in flour, baking powder, and baking soda. Add oats, sugar, raisins, cinnamon, allspice, and salt, and stir until well combined. In a separate bowl, combine syrup, molasses, and vanilla, then stir in oil to incorporate. Add wet mixture to dry and stir until just well combined (do not overmix). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Spoon batter onto baking sheet, evenly space apart, and slightly flatten. Bake for 11 minutes (no longer, or they will dry out), until lightly golden. Remove from oven, and let cool on baking sheet for 1 minute (no longer), then transfer to a cooling rack.
