This oatmeal raisin coconut cookie recipe puts a little spin on the classic oatmeal cookie. The coconut adds flavor, texture, and nutrition to this recipe. You may not go back to making oat meal cookies without it.
Not only are these cookies delicious (and gluten-free) but they are incredibly easy to make. Everything goes into one bowl so it's a quick cleanup. You can make these cookies for the holidays along side these paleo gingerbread cookies or just for everyday. They are higher in protein due to the almond flour in place of grain flour. For that reason, you can even serve them as a good healthy snack.

Notes
Are oats gluten-free?
Oats on it's own is a gluten-free grain BUT the way they are farmed makes them not gluten-free unless it is specifically stated on the packaging. Oats and wheat are often planted next to each other which makes them contaminated for people who have celiac disease or gluten intolerance. It is safe to eat oats as long as the packaging states they are gluten-free.
Should I buy Organic oats?
You really want to make sure you purchase organic oats. It is a crop that is heavily contaminated with pesticides if it is not organic. Even some organic brands have been tested and still have residue. I trust One degree oats, they are tested for pesticide residue and are 100% free of round-up.
