Oatmeal Cookies

by marie

Inspired by danish oatmeal cookies I created some softer oatmeal cookies with fruit pieces.

Bring 175 ml of milk, 1 tablespoon of brown sugar and a pinch of salt to a boil. Add 40 grams of oatmeal and turn off the heat and let the porridge cool down.

Cut 80 grams of dried dates into small pieces and put them in a bowl with hot water. After 30 minutes drain off the water.

In a bowl whisk 100 grams of margarine with 75 grams of brown sugar and 1 egg. Add a pinch of cinnamon and the cooled down porridge as well as the dates and 125 grams of plain flour. Mix everything and place dough with a teaspoon in small heaps on two baking trays.

Place the trays in the oven and bake for 16 minutes at 160 degrees Celsius. Let the cookies cool down on a wire rack.
