coconut raisin cookies


i wanted to make butter cookies but when i looked in my pantry i had some small bags of coconut, raisins, chia and flax seeds. so i wanted to get rid of them by putting them in my cookie batter. 

it actually turned out great! to make the cookies, you need:

1 cup self-raising flour
1 cup oats
1 cup coconut threads/dessicated coconut
1/2 cup raisins (that's how much i had left)
1/4 cup soft brown sugar
2 tbsp chia seeds
2 tbsp flax seeds
1 tbsp honey (or less)
180g butter, melted

  1. preheat the oven 160C on fan-forced. that's how you get the nice colour on the cookies.
  2. put all dry ingredients in a mixing bowl.
  3. mix the honey with the melted butter and pour into the dry ingredients.
  4. stir until all dry ingredients are wet.
  5. roll into balls and slightly flatten.
  6. place on baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  7. bake for 10-12 minutes or until golden brown.
  8. i baked mine for 22 minutes because they were big.
in a way, the ingredients are mostly similar to anzac biscuits. the extra ingredients are the raisins, chia and flax seeds.
anyway, happy baking!
