Banana Raisin Paleo Cookies

Most people a big fans of the traditional Oatmeal Raisin Cookies, however, if you are following a paleo diet lifestyle oats are not something to be eaten along with wheat flours. So with lots of research and trial and error, I have found the next best cookie. To gain the chewiness you would normally get from the oats is swapped out for the coconut flakes. Give these a try and let me know what you think of this unique twist on the traditional oatmeal raisin cookies.

Ingredients:
3 ripe bananas
¼ cup applesauce
3 cups almond meal
½ cup coconut flour
¼ cup coconut flakes
¼ cup full-fat coconut milk
½ cup raisins
1 tsp vanilla
1 tsp cinnamon

Directions:

1. Preheat your oven to 350 F. Prepare baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease pan.
2. In a large bowl, mash the bananas until you get a purée. Add the remaining ingredients and combine until smooth.
3. On prepared baking sheet, drop large spoonfuls of the cookie mixture.
4. Place the cookie sheet in the oven and bake 25 to 30 minutes or until golden. Serve warm.
