Step by Step to Make These Healthy Oat Cookies
1: Preheat and Prepare
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup and even baking.
2: Chop the Nuts
In a food processor, pulse the peanuts and hazelnuts until finely chopped not ground into a powder, but evenly broken down.
Transfer the chopped nuts into a large mixing bowl.
3: Mix the Seeds and Fruit
Add in the pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, sesame seeds, and dried cranberries.
Use a spoon or your hands to mix everything together until it’s evenly combined.
4: Shape the Cookies
Using your hands, scoop out a portion of the mixture and gently press it into a small cookie shape.
Place each cookie on the prepared baking sheet, leaving a little space between them.
If needed, lightly press the tops to flatten slightly.
5: Bake to Perfection
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the cookies are golden brown on top and fragrant.
Remove the tray from the oven and allow the cookies to cool for 5-10 minutes before moving them to a rack to cool completely.
