Ingredients

  • ½ c brown rice flour
  • ⅓ c tapioca starch

  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • 2 c oats gluten-free, old-fashioned
  • ⅓ c dried cranberries
  • ⅓ c pecan pieces
  • ¼ c pumpkin seeds
  • ½ c coconut flakes unsweetened

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • In a large bowl, place first 5 ingredients and mix to combine.
  • Add oil, butter, egg, maple syrup and vanilla and mix for 30 seconds.
  • Add in oats, ½ cup at a time, and mix for 15 seconds after each addition.
  • Hand mix in cranberries, pecans, pumpkin seeds and coconut flakes.
  • Line two baking sheets with parchment paper. Roll 1 ½ - 2 tablespoon-sized balls of dough and then flatten into a cookie shape about ¾ - 1 inch thick.
