Ingredients

Ingredients List
  • 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


Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper.

  2. 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.

  3. 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.

  4. Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted in the center of each cookies comes out clean, about 15 minutes.
