Blueberry oat cookies

Oat cookies are the perfect lunchbox treat. Add in some fresh blueberries and they get even better. These cookies are quick to make and packed with energy to fuel your little ones through their busy days.

  • Method

    1. Preparation

      Preheat oven to 180 °C. Line two baking trays with baking paper.

    2. Cookie dough

      Place the flour, coconut, sugar, oats and salt in a food processor and blitz until the oats are finely chopped and ingredients combined. Add the butter and pulse until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add the egg, vanilla and lemon zest and pulse until mixture begins to bind together. Transfer mixture into a medium bowl, add the blueberries and stir to combine. Shape into twelve, golf-sized balls. Arrange balls onto the prepared trays and flatten out to approximately 1 cm thick discs. Scatter with oats and sprinkle with sugar.

    3. Baking

      Bake for 20 minutes, or until golden brown. Leave on the tray to cool for 10 minutes. Transfer onto a rack to cool completely. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days, alternatively freeze for up to 2 months.
