Set the Table with Love

RAW Oatmeal Raisin Peanut Butter Cookie

—

What do you do when you are purposely not eating sugary desserts for a while? You turn to the Raw dessert diva within. These yummy raw cookies did the trick for me. Besides that, they are gluten free, high in fiber and protein. So. It’s truly is a win win.

Ingredients :

1 cup dry oats (gluten-free)
3/4 cup raw peanut butter
1 cup raisins (soaked over night), plus two tablespoon of dry raisins
1 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon

1/2 teaspoon ginger powder
Pinch of sea salt

1/4 cup chopped pecans, optional

Directions:
Add everything to a food processor, except the 2 tablespoon of dry raisins and chopped pecans.
Process.

Take the dough out of the processor, once everything is incorporated add the remaining raisins and pecans and roll into cookie size balls. Put the balls on parchment paper and press down with your fingers to mimic the shape of an oatmeal cookie. You want the dough to remind you of an oatmeal cookie about 1/2 inch thick. Place in the fridge to set for a 15 minutes or enjoy right away.

● About Me

Hi, I am Lisa. I am learning every day how to love up on this beautiful gift of living, cherishing each moment as it comes. Especially because at 38 I was dying, and now I am 55 years old, I have gained a deeper appreciation for life’s simple pleasures. I’m married to my wonderful husband of 30 years, who not only supports me through thick and thin but has also selflessly served as my kidney donor, a true testament to his love and commitment. Together, we have raised two incredible kids, aged 38 and 25, and I delight in watching them thrive. Our family has expanded beautifully with two grandkids who fill our lives with joy, a lovely daughter-in-law who has seamlessly joined our family, and a grand fur baby who adds warmth to our home. Here you will find life, food, and how I set the table with love for myself, my friends, and my family, creating cherished memories around meals that go beyond nourishment. I hope it inspires you to love up on your life a bit more and encourage you to surround your table with love, laughter, and the people you hold dear. We get one go at this precious journey, so let’s make it something deliciously beautiful, savoring each bite along the way. Thanks for stopping by; your presence adds to the warmth of this shared experience.
