Oatmeal Cookies

1 stick of soft unsalted butter
1/2 c organic honey
2 eggs

1 t vanilla
1 t cinnamon
1 t baking soda
1/2 t salt
3 c old fashioned oats
1 1/2 c almond flour

Optional:
1/4 c chopped dates or raisins
1/4 c chopped walnuts

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Blend butter and honey together with an electric mixer. Add eggs. Mix in remaining ingredients by hand.  Put balls on ungreased cookie sheet about an inch apart and bake for 8-10 minutes.  Let cool on a rack before eating.

This recipe is adapted from the Quaker Oatmeal recipe, replacing the sugar with honey and the flour with gluten free almond flour.  The addition of the dates or raisins helps add sweetness and the addition of the walnuts turns these cookies into a hearty breakfast cookie or snack.
