Author: Amanda Paa
Yield: 14 cookies
Prep Time :10 minutes
Cook Time :14 minutes
Additional Time :30 minutes
Total Time :54 minutes

Ingredients

  • 80 grams teff flour
  • 25 grams sweet rice flour
  • 40 grams tapioca starch
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 1/4 teaspoons cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt
  • 8 tablespoons butter 1/2 cup, melted and cooled
  • 1 large egg room temperature
  • 95 grams brown sugar
  • 35 grams cane sugar
  • 1/2 tablespoon molasses
  • 1 1/4 teaspoons vanilla
  • 1 cup + 2 tablespoons old fashioned oats
  • 1 package 4 ounces Patience Fruit & Co dried cranberries sweetened with apple juice
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons poppy seeds

Instructions 

  • Whisk together the teff flour, sweet rice flour, tapioca starch, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt in a large mixing bowl.
  • In a separate bowl whisk together the butter and egg, until smooth. Add sugars, molasses, and vanilla. Whisk until combined. Pour into dry ingredients, and stir until no streaks remain. Fold in oats, cranberries, and poppy seeds. Cover, and freeze for a minimum of 30 minutes.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Scoop 1 1/2 ounce doughballs onto a parchment lined baking sheet. I bake 8 per pan, so that cookies have room to spread.
  • Bake for 13-14 minutes, until cookies are golden brown and have just a slight shimmer to the middle of each cookie. Let cool on pan for five minutes – this is important. Then transfer to cooling rack.

Notes

Dough can be frozen for 30 minutes, and then baked, or wrapped and stored up to two days in the refrigerator, then baked.
