Instructions
Prepare flax seed and water and let sit for 15 minutes to gel.
Mix margarine, sugar, date silan, and the flax seed gel.
Add dry goods: oats, flour, cinnamon, and baking soda.
Add all the optional goodies - dried fruit and chocolate.
this recipe is great for cookie bars in a low tray - or spoon dropped cookies on cookie sheets
Bake at 18 C ( 365F) for 35 minutes for bars, or about 14-17 minutes for individual cookies.
NOTE: This does depend on the oven - the cookies do not need to brown much – but should be a little dry to the touch
Let cool on a rack and enjoy!

Prepare first:
3 tablespoons of ground flax seed with 9 tablespoons of cold water left to stand and gel for 15 minutes
3 Tablespoons of date silan (sometimes referred to as date honey but not made by bees - just mushy dates)
