Need a 'Pick me up?" - SUGAR/WHEAT/DAIRY Free Peanut Butter Cookie

Here is a little "cookie" to enjoy! Sugar/dairy/wheat free! 
NOTE: Please do not go making these for your friends dinner party! People who are used to sugar will HATE them! But if you love peanut butter - (who doesn't?) This ones for you!



1 C Oats
1/3 C Almond Flour (almonds ground in blender)
1/2 C Peanut/Almond Butter
1/2 C Applesauce
1/2 C Date Honey
1/2 C Dried Coconut (or coconut butter)
1 t Vanilla
2 Tbl Raisins
1/2 tsp Sea Salt

1)Date Honey: Place 5-6 Dates in pot and barely cover with water. Bring to boil and simmer for about 15-20 minutes until soft. Then Blend it all.
2) Place about 1 C of Coconut in a blender and process until almost solid. This will take awhile, and no biggy if it doesn't change. Just add 1/2 cup shredded coconut to the mixture.
3)Add all of these ingredients in a food processor and lightly pulse to combine. Don't over mix. If you want a baked cookie feel free to bake at 350 for about 10 minutes. Flatten down with fork before  hand.
4) You can also add a little cocoa or carob powder to the dough for a chocolatey twist. :)

 I put half in balls and froze them and baked half, and the unbaked ones tasted better to me! You decide. :) Or you could just eat straight out of the bowl!! hahah
