Delicious oatmeal cookies with beans (three recipes for all tastes)

These cookies are good and taste, texture, and composition (complex carbs + vegetable protein). A great snack that everyone likes;)

So, three recipes is:

Cookies made from beans, apples and oatmeal, which contains no eggs, milk, flour. It is very tasty. Wrote about it earlier.

And recently I made two types of cookies based on chickpea Blondie, and was very pleased with the result. Both delicious, but the chocolate is straight chocolate)))

Don’t forget that recipes can and should be changed to your taste, every time receiving a new and interesting result;)

Ingredients for about 20 pieces:

• 240 g cooked chickpeas (1 standard Bank of chickpeas without the liquid, you can substitute white beans),

• 1 Cup of rolled oats,

• 10 without Iranian date syrup (or to taste), if you have a king dates, they will need 6-7 pieces,

• To 100 ml of any type of milk (if needed, if the blender will not cope with “test”),

• 3 tbsp. of any nut butter/Urbach to your taste (,

• 1 egg or 1 “flax egg” (1 tbsp flax seed to grind into flour + 3 tbsp water, stir, leave for a few minutes until thick).,

• Zest of 1 small lemon (optional)

• 2 tsp ground vanilla (or extract),

• 1 tsp. cinnamon

• Pinch of salt

• Nuts/dried fruit/chocolate chips, optional, number at your discretion.

For the chocolate version:

• Zest of 1 orange instead of lemon (optional)

• Plus 3 tbsp. cocoa

• Plus 2-3 tbsp sweetener (maple syrup or Jerusalem artichoke are ideal),

If you want to Supplement the recipe with some spices to your taste – to health, if only they were combined with the remaining ingredients.

How to do:

1. Chickpeas. You can use canned chickpeas or boil in any convenient way (here described in detail, as I do).

2. Whisk in a blender all the ingredients except the chickpeas. If you have very dry dates, soak them for 10 minutes in boiling water.

3. Now add in the blender the chickpeas and cook until smooth, if necessary add milk. Direct to perfect smoothness to bring the “dough” is not required. Now spoon interfere oatmeal and, if desired, chocolate chips, nuts (preferably roasted) and dried fruit. But this is at your discretion, I made the cookies without them. But with additional ingredients of course tastier and fatter, and sweeter. Here it is that someone important;)

4. Spread a spoonful of batter on a baking sheet with parchment and spread, you can decorate a cookie. Bake in a preheated 180C oven for 20 minutes. Baking time will depend on your equipment. The last minute watch the biscuits carefully.

5. Take out cookies and let it cool to room temperature and can be eaten.

If you leave them on air – they will be crumbly if you put it in your container, it will be like the gingerbread in consistency. I like crumbly.

And I really recommend eating them fresh. And whatever is not eaten immediately in the freezer and get as necessary. The longer you’ve been the cookies, the less fragrant and flavorful it becomes.

Apple-oatmeal cookies without flour, eggs and sugar

Favorite snack, which snack between santrallerinin.

Ingredients (for 16 pieces):

3 large apples (600g),

250g rolled oats,

2 tsp cinnamon,

0.5 tsp. powdered vanilla,

Sweetener optional (I don’t use it, because the sweetness of the apples is enough for me).

Optional can add 1 ripe(!) banana, if you love it in baked goods. It will give a light fragrance and sweetness of the liver. If you add a large banana, then throw in the dough are additionally a handful of oatmeal.

How to do:

1. Applesauce. You can buy ready, but I’m doing it: wash the apples, remove the stalk, seeds and veins, to peel the skin or not – at your discretion. From the summer apples I the skin is not removed, the purchase is always clean. RUB on a small grater or grind in a blender. Three apples is roughly 400g Apple puree.

2. Add to the sauce spices, mix, then add oatmeal. Portion of oatmeal can be ground. I usually do so. Whipped in a blender the apples, add the spices and 50g of oatmeal, whipped again, and to this mixture add the remaining 200 g of oat flakes.

Let the dough stand for 15 to 30 minutes, the mixture should be dense.

3. Spoon the mixture on baking paper and give the liver a desired shape, I have 1.5 tbsp with a slide – 1 cookie. Optionally, sprinkle top with cinnamon. Bake at 160C convection on the middle shelf for approximately 30 minutes or until it will turn brown. Cool completely and then eat.

Cookies the next day will not be as tasty, so I recommend something that is not eaten immediately, store in an airtight container in the freezer, and before eating, heat it in the toaster.

I always cook a lot of this cookie and part are frozento the house was a tasty and healthy snack.

This basic recipe can be changed by adding different fillings: flour, bran, spices, berries, dried fruits, nuts, seeds, syrups, nut paste, etc.

For example, with cranberries:

With cranberries and bitter chocolate With cocoa:

With raisins: With pine nuts: Mac:

With prunes and walnuts: Important 1. Like 1/3 of the nuts, chop into pieces; 2/3 nuts slenderite directly with apples.

Important 2. These cookies can strongly stick to the baking paper if it does not have special coating or you didn’t grease it with oil. In this case it is necessary to wait for complete cooling cookies on the baking sheet and iterative movements to twist it while pressing it lightly to the surface. So it will come off with no deformation;)

Important 3. I always do the cookie from the masses as many pieces to like and ate a lot, and in fact, almost nothing ate;)))

The most delicious oatmeal-Apple crumble with raisins, pecans and maple syrup

My favorite crumble, it is simple and gorgeous at the same time. With almost no sweeteners with minimal amounts of oil and flour, but with lots of fruit. Can’t imagine a more delicious way to eat a kilo of apples!

In this basic post, I described all the subtleties of making crumble, I highly recommend reading it first.

And now the recipe.

Ingredients for the filling:

1kg of sweet and sour apples. It’s about 7 medium-sized apples, and is better to take different varieties, so the taste will be more interesting. Part of the apples you can substitute ripe pears or plums.
100 g raisins (you can substitute prunes or dates),
2-3 tbsp maple syrup (you can substitute another sweetener or even not to put it because of the raisins will be enough sweetness),
3 tbsp lemon juice (you need about half a lemon),
3 tsp cinnamon,
Grated zest of half a lemon,
A pinch of nutmeg and ground ginger.

Ingredients for crumble:

200 g of oat flakes or any other, for example, “4 cereals”,
50 g whole wheat flour/spelt flour/buckwheat flour, or any nut of your choice
50 g pecans/walnuts, roughly chopped,
100-150 ml of milk (coconut is very delicious)
3 tbsp. softened butter ghee (you can substitute any vegetable and bake crumble given temperature dymlenija this oil),
0.5 tsp. powdered vanilla,
1-2 tbsp maple syrup,
A pinch of salt.

For serving: vanilla ice cream/Greek yoghurt/vanilla sauce, berries, nuts.

How to do:

1. Nuts rinse. If the nuts are old or have a bitter taste, then soak them in clean water until they become sweet to the taste, then dry the iteration at low temperatures (method I wrote here).

2. Wash apples, peel and carefully remove all inedible parts. Half of the apples grate on a coarse grater, the other half cut into thin slices (the thinner, the better). Raisins wash.

3. In a large saucepan heat some oil for frying (I have MCE) and put apples, raisins, sweetener and spices. Simmer on medium heat for 15-20 minutes until fully cooked and brown the apples, then add lemon juice and zest, stir, taste and add more spices and sweetener to your taste if necessary. The stuffing is ready.

4. Crumble. Mix in a bowl all the dry ingredients, add oil, milk and syrup, mix to a consistency where all the weight is evenly moistened. Direct wet mass is, it is not necessary.

5. Slightly grease the molds with oil, put the stuffing evenly on top of crumble and bake at 180C on the middle shelf until Golden brown. I have it took about 25 minutes, but all ovens are different – be careful. At the end of baking you can activate the grill so the crust was more crunchy.

Important. I often make crumble in the evening for Breakfast. In this case I baked it for 20 minutes, and in the morning I bring to readiness the remaining 5-10 minutes.

Serve with Greek yogurt or vanilla ice cream. In Greek yogurt (1 jar 125g), you can add a quarter of a vanilla pod or a half teaspoon of ground vanilla, a few drops of lemon juice and 1H.l. syrup (maple/artichoke). It turns out incredibly delicious!

Oatmeal crumble with vanilla sauce (you can make vegan, gluten free)

Crumble is something like an upside-down cake when the crumb of the dough is baked on top of the filling, not the bottom in the form of a cake. The traditional recipe for sweet and fatty for me, so I made some modifications, and it was the option of oatmeal and a minimum of oil and sweetener, but with high fruit. This is a super simple, quick and delicious Breakfast or dessert.

The ease of the recipe is that all ingredients can be put on the eyes, and will still be delicious. Sometimes cakes just from what is in the fridge, and it turns out a culinary masterpiece. Below I will talk about the technology and its perfect proportions of ingredients.

The dish consists of 2 layers: fruit/berry/vegetable & oat layer.

I recommend to bake it in ceramic or glass form in order to bring to the table, but not necessarily.

The bottom layer.

In this case, the filling is what was in the fridge. You can use any fruit/vegetables (carrot, pumpkin), fruits that like. Most importantly they wash very well, go through and clean that in the process of eating you or the inedible parts of the fruit.

I have 500g of black currant and a handful of blueberries, juice and zest of half an orange, 2 tbsp Jerusalem artichoke syrup.

Optionally, the filling can add some spice. Apples, pears, plums, pumpkin, carrots blends perfectly with the cinnamon. Berries (cherries, raspberries, blackberries, blueberries) are perfectly combined with vanilla. In the filling you can also add nutmeg, ground ginger, dried fruits, and nuts.

Frozen berries can not be defrosted. The extra juice will still evaporated in the cooking process.

If the filling is sweet enough, I recommend to sprinkle it with lemon juice, lime, orange. So the taste will be more complex and interesting. Currants, to my mind, very cool combined with orange juice, I used it.

Sweetener add 1st.l., stir and taste until the flavor will not be balanced for you.

The top layer (crumble).

I have about 200g whole grain blend of flakes “4 cereals”, 50g. buckwheat flour, handful of almonds, 3 tbsp butter, softened ghee (you can substitute vegetable with a neutral taste), 0,5 tsp ground vanilla zest and juice of half an orange, 2 tbsp syrup topinambur, a pinch of salt.

Important. First clean off with citrus zest, then squeeze the juice out of it. If you do the opposite – it will be very difficult)

Sometimes I add to oatmeal or 1 egg 100-150ml milk (coconut is very tasty), when I want a more uniform and dense layer crumble.

The cereals and the flour can use any. You can do without flour do. It is possible to grind the flakes smaller and add nuts/seeds/almond petals, lubie spices (cinnamon, vanilla, etc.). Everything is optional.

Mix in a bowl all the dry ingredients, add liquid and mix to a consistency where all the weight is evenly moistened. Direct wet mass is, it is not necessary, since it will impregnate the juice from fruits and berries in the cooking process.

Slightly smear the form with butter, put the filling, spread the crumble on top and bake at 180C on the middle shelf until Golden brown. I have it took about 25 minutes, but all ovens are different – be careful. At the end of baking you can activate the grill so the crust was more crunchy.

Important. I often make crumble in the evening for Breakfast. In this case I baked it for 20 minutes, and in the morning I bring to readiness the remaining 5-10 minutes.

Serve with Greek yogurt or vanilla ice cream.

In Greek yogurt (1 jar 125g), you can add a quarter of a vanilla pod or half a teaspoon of ground vanilla, a few drops of lemon juice and 1H.l. syrup (maple/artichoke). It turns out incredibly delicious!

Cold this crumble I also really like eating as a snack)

Ingredients (for 2 servings):

2 pieces of biscuits (60g) oat or here is a coconut (photo examples of dessert with two kinds of cookies), or you can use a here’s a garbanzo bean cake,

20-30g of nuts any on your taste (I like it with fried almonds/pecans/pistachios),

150g cream cheeseor thick yogurt without fillers

1-2 tbsp lemon juice

1-2 tbsp Jerusalem artichoke syrup/maple syrup, any sweetener that you eat

0.5 tsp. powdered vanilla,

A handful of berries or sliced fruits of your choice (raspberries, strawberries, blueberries, blueberries, blackberries, etc.)

How to do:

1. Nuts to wash and dry in the oven. As I dried nuts wrote here. If you already have the nuts, then proceed to item 2

2. In a blender, grind cookies and nuts to the state of crumbs.

3. Mix cream cheese with lemon juice, vanilla and sweetener until smooth. The amount of sweet and acid is very dependent on the specific type of cheese. First, put 1 tbsp each of the ingredients, mix and add more if necessary. The taste should be creamy, slightly sweet with a slight acidity.

Dairy is filling you can use whipped coconut cream or Chia pudding.

4. In the glasses put the crumbs of biscuits and nuts, then a layer of cream and finish with fresh berries. Enjoy!

The layers can be repeated several times, to make them of an even greater number of different ingredients. Huge space for creativity;)

Spicy oatmeal-pumpkin cookies

Another version oatmeal snack cookies now with pumpkin.

To do this: wash the pumpkin, cut, peel, bake until cooked without spices 30min at 160-180C, turn into mashed potatoes, add 2 times less (by weight) oatmeal (flakes/oatmeal or their mixture), a little salt and spices to your taste. Lots of spices!!! Here are perfect cinnamon star anise, cardamom, ginger, nutmeg. You can also add TS flour sweetener, nuts, grains to your taste. Leave the mixture for a while from 30min, then bake for 40min at 140C on convection mode, cool on a grate.

I got 20 pieces from 600g of pumpkin. I put 3st. L. ground cinnamon, 2 star anise flowers and seeds from 2 cardamoms (crushed in a coffee grinder), 2 tsp.ground ginger, 0.5 tsp. nutmeg and sea salt, but it was possible most of all. Or you can use a ready-made spice mixture for Gingerbread or ginger cookies. It will be very tasty!

Cool completely and store in an airtight container.

Cookies the next day will not be so tasty, so I recommend that you do not eat immediately, store in an airtight container in the freezer, and before eating, warm it up in a toaster.

I always cook a lot of these cookies and part of freeze to have a tasty and healthy snack at home.

This is a basic “boring” option, and the recipe is more interesting:

The ingredients are the same, only the dough needs to be brought to a homogeneous consistency in a blender. Bake flat smooth cookies, cool, and then make them double cookies with cheese filling in the middle (cottage cheese, lemon juice, vanilla, your favorite sweetener), let the finished cookies brew in the refrigerator (preferably overnight), and in the morning you have a super breakfast ready

Biscotti of just 2 ingredients: carrots and oatmeal

Another one of my casual poolside snack.

The recipe is similar to Apple-oatmeal cookies (for the 12pcs. you need about 200g of carrots and 200g of oatmeal):

Carrots wash, peel, cut into pieces, which will break your blender. Chop the carrots into a puree, add the oat flakes/oatmeal or mix in the same quantity, but using carrots. It should get a sticky, stiff dough. Roll it into a sausage, roll in oat flakes and let soak 20 min. Cut sausage washers with a width of about 1 cm bake at 140C convection about 40 min. let cool Well and crackers ready;)

Store in a sealed container.

Cookies the next day will not be as tasty, so I recommend that do not eat sruzu, store in an airtight container in the freezer, and before eating, heat it in the toaster.

I always cook a lot of this cookie and part are frozento the house was a tasty and healthy snack.

Important 1. Try the carrot before putting in the dough. Sometimes it is bitter, and so in recipes where it plays a major role (as here) it is better not to use it, the bitterness will be felt.

Important 2. According to your taste in cookies, you can add whole wheat flour, dried fruits, nuts, seeds, spices, sweeteners. This time I added cinnamon, cashews, flax seeds.

Poppy seed roll in oat flour

This roll is made from a thin layer of oatmeal and a thick layer of poppy seeds. The recipe is simple, but the technology of twisting is more complicated)))

1.dough.

Grind 200 grams of oatmeal in a blender to flour and mix with 1 egg, a pinch of salt and butter (butter or vegetable, as you like). I add a little, just look at the consistency of the dough so that you can sculpt something from it and not stick to your hands. Put it in the fridge.

2. filling.

We need a poppy (200-250 GR.), and the most important thing in the filling is to grind it. Either dry in a coffee grinder, or already steamed in boiling water, grind with a blender. I use the second way as it is faster. So:

Poppy pour boiling water in a saucepan or ladle, in which you will then cook it. It is better to pour more water, then salt the excess. Leave it for at least 30 minutes, I pour it at night. So it becomes very soft and malleable to grinding.

Then drain all the water that is above the level of the poppy and grind the future filling with an immersion blender for 2 minutes. It is not necessary to turn it into dust. After that, on medium heat, evaporate the remaining water, then add 50-70 ml of any milk (delicious with almond and coconut), a pinch of salt and Jerusalem artichoke syrup/honey to taste (try to your taste). If desired, you can add dried fruits, butter, nuts, lemon zest to the poppy. Just complete improvisation. When the mass is not liquid-remove from heat and let cool (this is important).

3. the cooled dough is laid in a tricky way: take a rectangular baking dish and put baking paper in it. We distribute the dough along the bottom of the mold, then pour the filling, the Filling Layer will be 2 times higher than the dough layer (I love it so much), but be sure to leave both edges of the dough without filling, where the beginning and end of the twist are. Quickly twist the roll, because the oatmeal dough is sooo fragile and we fasten everything with baking paper, like candy in a wrapper, otherwise everything will disintegrate and spread. In the oven at 180 degrees for 30-40 minutes. Cool in paper, then remove it and enjoy;)))
